[Hiring] Technical Writer @Microblink

Role Description

We’re looking for a technical writer / documentation engineer. This job involves writing technical documentation for several of our products, including:

• Instructions for end users using products with a web UI
• Integration instructions for developers installing our SDKs (in numerous languages)
• API documentation for our REST APIs

We use a docs-as-code approach, so you’ll spend most of your time writing Markdown or MDX, hosted in a Git repository, served as a Docusaurus website.

Your responsibilities will also include:

• Diving into our CI operations
• Writing internal documentation when needed
• Participating in discussions around product development
• Advocating for our users
• Building tools and running the projects you’re documenting
• Integrating SDK code into a mock app to understand the end user (developer) experience
• Interviewing developers, product managers, support and solutions engineers

You’ll have maybe one to three meetings a week, with most work being async. Good personal time management is important as you’ll operate within the constraints of release deadlines.

The technical writing team is currently a team of one, so this job would involve taking ownership of a large portion of the documentation. This role is an expansion, not a backfill, and you’ll take part in shaping a large backlog and a docs roadmap.

Qualifications

• Experience as a technical writer in software or a software engineer who has written documentation
• Backgrounds in support engineering or solutions engineering with documentation experience are also valuable
• Experience in writing clearly and making complex information accessible
• Care for quality documentation, not just as a necessary evil
• Optional: Experience writing a blog
• Good technical skills, writing skills, and high agency

Requirements

• Basic coding knowledge and ability to read code in various languages (primarily Typescript, Kotlin, Swift, .NET, and C++)
• Must have at least a basic working knowledge of Git and Git-based workflows on GitHub
• Some command line experience, ideally with Linux or *nix (e.g., Bash)
• Understanding of basic operations, SSH, changing directories, and managing permissions
• Strong focus on clarity and helping the reader
• Ability to switch between writing and editing, minimizing noise in documentation
• Extensive use of AI for research and prototyping without compromising document quality
• Ability to work comprehensively and advocate for sensible solutions
• Willingness to chase information and conduct investigative work in Git branches
