This is an in-office writing and research role at a geopolitics media house. You will be producing a high volume of original articles, analysis pieces, newsletter content, and dispatches daily. You will use AI to work faster, but your understanding of the subject is what makes the output worth reading. Nobody wants AI that pretends to be a journalist. We want someone who knows the subject cold and uses AI like a pro.

We're open to two kinds of people for this role: working writers with a track record, and political science or international relations graduates, postgraduates, NET qualifiers, or PhDs who know the subject deeply and can write, even without a newsroom background.

Since there's no way to share links through this application, add links to your published work, academic papers, or writing samples directly in your resume before applying. Applications without proof of work will not be considered.

SALARY: 2.4 LPA – 3.6 LPA

EXPERIENCE: 0–4 years (freshers with a solid political science/IR academic background welcome)

Work from Office: 6 days

IMMEDIATE JOINING IN GOA

WHAT YOU WILL DO

- Research and write original articles, analysis pieces, and newsletter content on geopolitics, international relations, diplomacy, conflict, economy, and history
- Cover all major regions including South Asia, Middle East, East Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas with the Indian lens front and centre
- Use AI tools like Claude, Perplexity, and ChatGPT to accelerate research and drafting. The expectation is high volume, high quality.
- Optimise every piece for Google search and AI discovery tools. Content that nobody finds is content that does not exist.
- Pitch story ideas. You are expected to spot what is worth covering, not wait to be told.
- Meet daily deadlines, every day, without being followed up.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR





- Either 1–4 years of industry writing experience, or a postgraduate degree, NET qualification, or PhD in political science, international relations, or a closely related field
- You read Foreign Affairs, The Economist, or equivalent. Not because your job requires it. Because you love it.
- You know current affairs, geopolitics, and history well enough to write about them with authority and a genuine point of view
- You can produce multiple well-researched, well-written pieces in a day using AI as your production engine
- You understand SEO and how content surfaces in AI-powered tools like Perplexity and ChatGPT. Not surface-level understanding. Real, applied knowledge.
- You have proof of work: published articles, academic papers, a thesis chapter, newsletters, substacks, anything that shows you can write about complex subjects clearly
- You can join us in Goa immediately

WHO WE ARE NOT LOOKING FOR

- People who use AI to copy-paste and call it writing
- People who are getting into geopolitics. We need people who are already in it, whether through the newsroom or the academy.
- People who need a lot of hand-holding to figure out what to write next
- People who treat deadlines as suggestions

30 DAYS IN

You're publishing daily without being chased for it. Your AI workflow is running smoothly enough that it's saving you real time, not just adding a step. You've pitched at least a few stories that made it to publish as-is or with light edits. Deadlines are a non-issue at this point, not something anyone's tracking for you.

60 DAYS IN

Some of your pieces are ranking on Google or turning up in AI search tools. Your byline is starting to mean something, readers recognise your name and come back for it. You can point to specific pieces and the traffic or engagement they pulled in. You're one of the people shaping how TGV actually sounds, not just filling a slot on the calendar.
