[Hiring] Freelance Science and Technical Writer @Viewpointsystem GmbH

Role Description

You speak both languages: science and people. We build award-winning smart glasses in Vienna: hardware, firmware, software, all under one roof. Eye tracking is at the heart of our technology. Our technology is complex, peer-reviewed, and genuinely worth writing about. We’re looking for a freelance science and technical writer who can take a briefing, dive deep into the subject matter, and come back with content that is accurate, compelling, and publication-ready, in both German and English. This isn’t ghostwriting for generalists. It’s serious technical content that needs a serious writer.

Making Future Reality together - are you in?

Qualifications

• Several years of proven experience in scientific or technical writing, ideally in deep-tech or a B2B technology environment.
• A background in natural sciences, engineering, or a related technical field; genuine interest in eye tracking or related topics such as computer vision, human-machine interaction, or wearables.
• Flawless writing in German and English, with a sharp eye for accuracy, nuance, and tone.
• A structured, reliable, and precise way of working. You own a piece from first draft to final version.
• High standards: you don’t submit something you wouldn’t put your name on.
• Being based in or near Vienna is a plus, so we can meet in person every now and then.

Requirements

• Whitepapers, technical articles, and scientific content that accurately represent our technology and research.
• Content that makes complex deep-tech topics accessible to informed B2B audiences, without dumbing them down.
• Project-based collaboration: from briefing through expert reviews to final sign-off, independently and with precision.
• Interview subject-matter experts, coordinate reviews, and incorporate feedback through final approval.
• Suggest ideas for diagrams, infographics, and data visualizations where they add value.
• Output in both German and English, publication-ready in both.

Benefits

• To apply, please share your CV.
• A technical white paper or scientific article you wrote yourself.
• An example of how you made complex technology or research accessible to a broader audience.
• A short note on your contribution to each piece.
