Capital post-conviction, federal habeas or appellate experience is preferred. Candidates must possess strong writing ability and a demonstrated commitment to poverty law or indigent criminal defense. Requirements include admission and good standing before the federal bar, in combination with admission and good standing to a state bar. Eligibility for admission to the Pennsylvania Bar or willingness to sit for and pass the next Pennsylvania bar examination is required.

    Candidates must be able to engage in significant overnight travel throughout the Commonwealth and out of state. The position requires that the incumbent occasionally lift and/or move up to twenty-five pounds and spend extended periods driving or riding in a car.
