- Creates, develops, plans, writes and edits operational, instructional, maintenance or test procedures for paper, multimedia or web-based publication.
- Conducts interviews with various users and technical staff to gather data for documentation.
- Researches and translates technical information into manuals and/or web-based documents for non-technical and technical users. May document engineering processes and specifications.

- The primary focus of this role will be the Curriculex project, a key product initiative that is currently progressing toward a customer-facing pilot scheduled for Q4.

Responsibilities and priorities will be guided primarily by Product and Program Managers, who will serve as the principal stakeholders and business partners. While there may be occasional collaboration with Engineering teams to gather technical information and validate content, the role is largely product-focused rather than engineering-driven.

- A culture of collaboration, with each other and with our partner teams, supports everything we do. As part of the Customer Success team, we get to work with people every day who have a passion for delivering exceptional customer experience, and have direct access to our users. We also work closely with product management, the Customer Service team, and the User Experience team to understand users' questions and pain points, to make sure our content is as useful as it can possibly be.
- A minimum of three years of hands-on MadCap Flare experience
- Proven experience authoring and publishing customer-facing technical documentation
- Strong ability to learn software products independently and document complex workflows for end users
- Experience working in cross-functional environments with Product Management teams
- Collaborating with Product and Program Managers to understand product features, enhancements, and user workflows.
- Testing and exploring the Curriculex application firsthand to gain a practical understanding of product functionality.
- Creating and maintaining end-user documentation that accurately reflects user tasks and product capabilities.
- Authoring, editing, and organizing technical content using MadCap Flare.
- Publishing documentation to the Ask client Support Site for customer access.
- Publishing and maintaining content within the Pendo Resource Center to provide in-product guidance and support.
- Participating in content reviews and revisions as the product evolves toward pilot and future releases.
- Occasionally engaging with engineering resources for technical clarification, though day-to-day interaction is primarily with Product Management stakeholders.

- Have least 7 years of experience as a software technical writer creating accessible, user-focused, context-sensitive end-user content
- Have a BS/BA degree with a technical background
