Company
We hire people who can read a CVE and a mailing list thread and tell you which one actually matters.

Lunaro News is a small, remote-first newsroom. That means less process than a large publication and more ownership: reporters pitch their own stories, keep their own beats, and are trusted to judge what deserves attention without a layer of editorial approval between them and publishing.
It also means we hire slowly and specifically. We are not looking for generalist content writers who can produce a technology article on request. We look for people with genuine domain background — time spent on an incident response desk, in a kernel mailing list, in a research group, in production engineering — who can write clearly for peers.
You do not need prior journalism experience. Several of our strongest writers came from practitioner roles and learned reporting on the job. You do need to be able to write a clear paragraph and to care about being right more than about being first.
We are currently accepting expressions of interest for the following. If nothing here matches but you think you should be writing for us, send a pitch anyway — most of our hires started that way.
Email careers@lunaro.news with the role in the subject line. Include a short note about what you would cover and why you are equipped to cover it, plus two or three writing samples — published clips, a technical blog post, or a detailed incident writeup all work equally well.
For freelance pitches, skip the cover letter and send the pitch itself: what the story is, why now, and who you would talk to. We respond to every pitch, usually within a week.
Lunaro News considers all applicants without regard to any characteristic protected by applicable law, and will make reasonable accommodations throughout the hiring process on request.
Yes. Lunaro News is remote-first and asynchronous by default, with no requirement for overlapping hours across time zones beyond one weekly editorial call.
No. Lunaro News hires for domain expertise first and teaches reporting on the job. Several current writers came from practitioner roles in incident response, kernel development, research, and production engineering rather than from newsrooms.
Yes. Freelance pitches can be sent to careers@lunaro.news and should describe the story, why it is timely, and who the writer would talk to. Lunaro News responds to every pitch, typically within a week, and freelance contributions are the most common route to a staff role.
