As a news copy editor, I have collaborated on investigative podcasts, daily news stories and a Pulitzer Prize-winning series. It's rewarding to shape The Post’s marquee journalism, and it's gratifying to know that copy editing is valued here.
Laura M.
Senior Copy Editor
Working in tech, there's something new every day. Here at The Post, it's even more discernible as we don't have uniform equipment or software since there are hundreds of different roles, which helps keep me sharp and up to date with any trends happening in the tech world. This in turn allows me to provide world class support for our world class journalism!

What I love about The Post is that it’s not too big and it’s not too small— no matter your role, you’re empowered to take ownership and try new ideas. We are big enough to have space for innovation and small enough so that every role can play a part in shaping the future.
