Job description

We are a forward-thinking software company in North Las Vegas, and we're looking for a technical writing expert to join our fully remote team. This isn't just about churning out documentation; it’s about crafting a user journey so seamless and intuitive that it transforms even the most technically averse individual into a confident, power user.

Your Mission:

  • Documentation Architect: Design, develop, and maintain comprehensive technical documentation, including user manuals, API references, troubleshooting guides, and release notes.
  • Content Alchemist: Convert complex technical jargon into clear, concise, and engaging content that resonates with both technical and non-technical audiences. No industry phrase or acronym left unturned.
  • Collaboration Maestro: Work closely with product managers, engineers, and support teams to gather information, validate accuracy, and ensure documentation aligns with product development cycles. Weekly documentation check ins.
  • Quality Guardian: Champion documentation best practices, maintain style guides, and implement rigorous review processes to ensure accuracy, consistency, and clarity across all deliverables. Think AP style, but for APIs.
  • Content Strategy Contributor: Help to define our overall documentation strategy, identify opportunities for content improvement, and explore innovative ways to deliver information to our users.

What You Need to Bring to the Table:

  • Proven career path in technical writing, with a portfolio of outstanding documentation samples.
  • Deep understanding of software development methodologies, API documentation, and user experience principles.
  • Mastery of technical writing tools and platforms, such as MadCap Flare, DITA, or similar.
  • Unwavering commitment to quality, accuracy, and user-centric content design.
  • A passion for learning new technologies and explaining complex concepts in simple terms. Extra credit for whiteboard skills.
  • Exceptional communication, collaboration, and problem-solving abilities. A diplomatic touch is always appreciated.

Benefits of Joining Our Crew:

  • Flexible Schedule: Set your own hours and work from anywhere in the continental United States.
  • Competitive Compensation: Receive a salary commensurate with your experience and contributions, along with performance-based bonuses.
  • Health & Wellness: Access comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance plans, as well as a wellness program designed to support your physical and mental well-being. Employee assistance programs are also available.
  • Professional Development: Invest in your growth with opportunities for training, conferences, and certifications. Up to $2,000 a year allocated to courses!
  • Unlimited Vacation: Take the time you need to recharge and pursue your passions.
  • Equity Options: Share in our success with stock options, aligning your interests with the company's long-term growth. Vesting applies.

Our company fosters a diverse and inclusive work environment. We value innovation, collaboration, and continuous learning, and we encourage our employees to take risks, challenge assumptions, and push the boundaries of what's possible. We provide cutting-edge software solutions with our employees in mind! We love going on company retreats!
