Job description

This position will operate on a remote, freelance basis.
Android Police is expanding its freelance roster and hiring multiple experienced features writers to deliver sharp, authoritative stories across the Android universe. You'll pitch and produce original, reader-obsessed narratives-deep dives, hands-on experiments, timely takes-that power our site, social channels, and newsletters.
What We Cover
• Android phones, tablets, and apps
• Smart home devices and ecosystems
• Amazon Fire tablets, Fire TV, and Kindle lineup
• E Ink hardware (e-readers, note-takers, displays)
• Android OS updates, features, and hidden tricks
• Productivity apps and workflows
The Role
• Hands-on writing: Freelance contract with a minimum set of published stories per month.
• Pitch-driven: You own your ideas. Submit strong pitches weekly.
• Quick-response availability: Pitch and file same-day or next-day pieces on breaking news, OS drops, or viral trends.
• No commerce, affiliate, or sponsored content-100% editorial.
• Mix of formats: A healthy chunk of first-person pieces, plus reported features, how-tos, and analysis.
Requirements
• Proven experience: 3+ years writing features for established tech/consumer outlets (prior bylines required).
• Deep knowledge of at least one beat above; bonus for multiple.
• Hardware on hand: Current Android devices (Android 14+) and any smart home/E Ink gear you'll cover.
• US or Canada-based preferred. We'll consider exceptional writers elsewhere if you can reliably work within an Eastern time zone.
• Passion for your beat and a drive to deliver fresh, original takes.
Big Plusses
• Solid media contacts for exclusives and sourcing
• Bylines at outlets like Android Authority, 9to5Google, 9to5Mac, XDA, Pocket-lint, How-To Geek, or similar
• Strong social-media presence and engaged following
• Familiarity with Android Police's voice and audience
How We Work
• Payment: Timely bi-monthly or monthly payments via PayPal, or Payoneer. Competitive per-story rates, paid on publication.
• Process: Every piece goes through professional copy edit; we create custom art; your work is promoted across our social channels and newsletters.
• Quality bar: Excellent, well-sourced writing (we fact-check everything).
• Long-term home: Most writers stay for years. We run training workshops, offer growth paths to fixed base roles, product-review gigs, and more.
Application Requirements
  1. Three relevant previously written articles (at least one hands-on)
  2. Brief note on your primary beat + hardware setup
  3. Fresh pitch idea tailored to Android Police
  4. Links to your social profiles / portfolio

We will get back to you as soon as possible if we think you'd make a solid addition to the team.
