Your work will include product documentation, API reference material, tutorials, release notes, and developer guides for AI/ML systems.

Write, edit, and maintain high-quality documentation: user guides, API docs, integration guides, SDK docs, system architecture overviews, FAQs, and release notes.

Create tutorials, walkthroughs, and sample code to help users understand how to use features and APIs.

Collaborate with cross-functional teams (engineering, product, QA, UX, support) to ensure documentation is accurate and aligned with product changes.

Translate complex technical concepts into content that is clear and accessible to various audiences (developers, non-technical users, business stakeholders).

Manage documentation versioning, maintain consistency across documents, and ensure timely updates with product releases.

Review and provide feedback on developer comments, code comments, and technical proposals to improve clarity.

Work with localization/internationalization teams to produce documentation for global audiences (if applicable).

Ensure adherence to documentation standards, templates, style guides, and editorial best practices.

Required Qualifications / Skills

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Technical Communication, English, or a related field (or equivalent experience).

3+ years of hands‑on experience in technical writing, ideally in software, AI/ML, data, or developer tools.

Strong ability to understand and communicate technical concepts (APIs, machine learning models, data pipelines, architectures).

Experience writing API reference docs, developer guides, and integration documentation.

Familiarity with software development practices (version control like Git, code review, agile development).

Experience with documentation tools and markup languages (e.g. Markdown, reStructuredText, Sphinx, Docusaurus, AsciiDoc).

Comfort working with engineers, reviewing source code, and extracting technical details to convert to prose.

Excellent command of English (grammar, clarity, structure).

Ability to work independently as well as collaboratively, prioritize tasks, and manage multiple documentation projects.

Attention to detail, strong editing skills, and consistency in style.
