About this role
The Chronicle’s design team is a multidisciplinary group responsible for elevating the newsroom’s most ambitious journalism. We are a diverse group of designers, illustrators, graphics/data reporters and developers of varied backgrounds. Our projects range from crafting design systems for lines of coverage to piecing together immersive storytelling approaches for longform narratives and investigative reports. Recent successes include an Online Journalism Award-winning project on the impact of the World War II incarceration of Japanese Americans on San Francisco’s Japantown and the extremely successful relaunch of our list of Top 100 Restaurants in the San Francisco Bay Area that we rebranded and redesigned with new product features and audience strategies. We also contributed to two investigations — “The Right to Remain Secret” and “Fast and Fatal” — that were finalists for the Pulitzer Prize in 2025.
