- Our burgeoning tech client in Albuquerque, New Mexico needs a part-time, remote technical writer to bridge the gap between highly specialized software and everyday users. Our team is built on clear communication, proactive problem-solving, and a drive to make technology accessible to everyone, and we're looking for a detail-oriented wordsmith to further that mission. **What You'll Do:** * Take complex technical jargon and translate it into simple, easy-to-understand language for user manuals, FAQs, and online help documentation. * Collaborate with developers, software engineers, and product managers to gather necessary information for content creation. * Create diagrams, screenshots, and other visual aids to enhance documentation. * Maintain and update existing documentation to reflect software changes and updates. This means meticulous version control. * Participate in user feedback sessions to identify areas for documentation improvement. * Adhere to company style guidelines and maintain a consistent brand voice. * Meet project deadlines and manage multiple documentation projects simultaneously. **The Kind of Background That Will Help You Succeed:** * A history of technical writing, especially in the software space. * Mastery of documentation tools like MadCap Flare, or willingness to learn them. * Proficiency in creating diagrams, screenshots, and other visual aids. * Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with ability to converse and obtain insights from programmers and clients. * Ability to manage multiple projects, set priorities, and work under pressure. * Deep familiarity with software development lifecycles. * Bachelor's degree in Technical Communication, English, or a related field, but a portfolio of great technical content trumps formal credentials. **Perks of Working with Us:** We operate like a startup with heart and a social conscience: * Competitive hourly wage with room to grow. * Flexible hours tailored to your schedule (we know life happens). * Remote work arrangements (save on gas and enjoy your comfy chair). * The satisfaction of knowing you are making technology more accessible for everyone. * Collaborative, supportive work environment. Your voice will be heard, and your ideas valued. * Potential for full-time employment as our company grows. * Direct impact on user experience and software usability. **Local Albuquerque Note**: This is a great fit if you enjoy a relaxed pace but crave challenging work.
