If you?re a resourceful, creative photo editor who loves Slate, we want to talk to you. We?re looking to hire a part-time photo researcher to work with the art and editorial teams in daily production to locate and incorporate visual elements in all of Slate?s features. The position?s primary task will be working with editors, the art team, and interns on daily production. It's a job for someone with a good eye, strong attention to detail (e.g., "not any rock, it has to be New York schist"), and comfort though not necessarily expertise in using Photoshop. This is an ideal position for a junior photo editor with a strong visual sense or designer keen on visual editing with some writing. This job is for someone who thrives in a fast-paced news and deadline-oriented environment, brings ample initiative and flexibility, knows how to follow directions and work in a team, speaks up and asks questions, balances multiple tasks, and has the patience of a saint. Strong communication skills are a must; a sense of humor is highly appreciated.

- BA or vocational degree
- Research, prepare, and place images in articles and blog posts
- Be available some evening and weekend hours for big events and off-hour coverage
- Create slideshows from concept to completion, working closely with the editorial and design teams
- Occasional photo shoots
- Excellent communication skills, written and verbal
- Solid knowledge of copyright and image-rights acquisition
- Good comfort level with Photoshop and a big plus if savvy with Illustrator, Fireworks, Flash, or other Adobe products

- Avid news-hound tendencies
- Above-average organizational prowess
SYSTEMS ADMINISTRATOR
We?re looking for an experienced Unix/Linux systems administrator to manage our systems. The best systems administrators are those that know that if they?re in the spotlight, they?re not doing their job correctly. We want somebody with the ability to identify and implement improvements to our process and infrastructure so that our editorial team and our readers never know that Slate has a top notch systems administrator. We want a systems administrator who doesn?t get called in the middle of the night because he or she has worked with the development team to ensure that systems run smoothly, are monitored properly, and have built-in redundancy. We also want somebody who will gladly take the occasional overnight phone call due to pride of work.
Essential duties include:
- Analyzing existing infrastructure and identifying weak links and areas for improvement
- Managing backups and restore tests
- Developing standard virtual machine images
- Deploying and taking down instances and storage on Amazon Web Services as needed
- Working with development teams to develop policies which accommodate needs for both system stability and development flexibility
- Documenting systems and processes
Bachelor?s degree or related work experience in systems administration, programming, or a related field.
- Solid experience administering Linux systems
- Experience with Amazon Web Services
- Experience with high-traffic web sites
- Strong written and verbal communication skills and attention to detail
- Strong organizational and analytical skills
- ?Experience with java-based web applications
- ?Experience with Apache and MySQL
