We’re looking for a Technical Writer to create clear, accurate, and user-friendly technical documentation supporting products and technologies. This role works closely with engineers, product teams, and subject matter experts to gather and interpret technical information and translate it into documentation that can be easily understood by the intended audience.
As a Technical Writer, you’ll have the opportunity to learn the technologies behind systems and work directly with the people developing them. You’ll support both established products and newer technologies as they move through development and real-world implementation. This is a highly collaborative role for someone who enjoys learning how things work. You won’t simply receive finished technical information and reformat it—you’ll ask questions, research existing documentation, review drawings and specifications, and when needed, observe equipment and processes firsthand to develop a thorough understanding of the subject matter.
The ideal candidate combines strong writing ability with technical curiosity, initiative, and the confidence to proactively engage subject matter experts to obtain the information needed to move documentation forward. No prior experience required—full training provided.
What You’ll Do
- Create, revise, and maintain technical documentation including manuals, guides, instructions, and other technical deliverables
- Collaborate with engineers, product teams, and subject matter experts across the organization to gather, verify, and clarify technical information
- Gather source material from engineering information, internal documentation, drawings, specifications, product samples, and hands-on observation
- Apply critical thinking when developing documentation, identifying opportunities to make technical information clearer, safer, more complete, and easier to follow
- Review existing project and product documentation to understand product offerings and project-specific implementations
- Understand and navigate engineering drawings, specifications, mockups, and product information when developing documentation
- Review and update existing documentation as products, components, processes, and requirements evolve
- Coordinate document reviews with appropriate stakeholders, incorporate feedback, track revisions, and prepare documentation for publication
- Help establish and maintain guidelines, standard procedures, templates, and documentation standards to promote consistency
- Collaborate with other writers to promote consistent approaches and best practices
- Manage multiple documentation assignments and changing priorities while consistently completing work with minimal supervision
What You’ll Bring
- Bachelor’s degree in English, History, Communications, Technical Writing, or a related discipline, or equivalent relevant education and experience
- Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to translate technical concepts into clear, understandable language
- Ability to understand and navigate technical drawings, specifications, mockups, and product information
- Strong attention to detail and commitment to documentation accuracy
- Ability to work independently while remaining highly engaged with a cross-functional team
- Proficiency with Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel
- Familiarity with Adobe Acrobat Pro or similar tools is a plus
Work Environment
This is primarily a remote role. However, the work requires a willingness to participate in hands-on or site-based observation when needed. Travel may include visits to facilities, customer locations, or project sites to observe equipment, installations, maintenance activities, or product operations. Travel is typically up to 10–15% based on project needs, and may be higher during the initial onboarding period.
When working at project or customer sites, the environment may be industrial and may require appropriate personal protective equipment.
