Document-Based Reporting & Research Writer
Job Description
Your work at IXO
Turn public records and substantial source documents into accurate, verifiable reporting.
Responsibilities
• Extract significant findings from reports and document collections.
• Verify sources and facts before constructing the account.
• Write concise summaries or full articles using clear leads and an appropriate inverted-pyramid structure.
• Maintain citation trails and research notes, then revise after editorial review.
Experience and eligibility
Four or more years as a reporter or correspondent at a recognized outlet are preferred. Document-heavy investigative, business or science reporting is particularly relevant. Bring evidence of factual reporting, large-document synthesis and source validation; opinion-writing alone does not demonstrate this workflow.
Deliverables and pay
Outputs are non-opinion articles or summaries, citations and transparent research notes. Scope, schedule and review criteria will be agreed with IXO before work begins.
Pay is $45 • $80/hr in USD. Work is remote.
