Job Description

The Product Adoption Content and Education (PACE) team develops and delivers the content our customers need to install, manage, and configure HPE Networking's products and solutions. HPE Networking is all about powering connections and empowering change.

The Technical Writers on the PACE team strive for this goal daily by:

• Putting teamwork first. We know that we can do so much more collectively than we can individually. We are respectful, collaborative, inclusive, and courageous. We also remember a huge part of teamwork is not taking ourselves too seriously and every day we try to sprinkle a little bit of fun into the mix.
• Being unafraid to fail. We know that everything won't be done perfectly the first time. We go for it anyway. When we make mistakes, we get up, brush ourselves off, learn from the experience, support each other, and try again.
• Remembering why our work is important. Our job is to help make our customers successful. We do this through simplified onboarding, intuitive help in our applications, and giving customers the content they need when they need it. When we do this, we help make their lives better, which has intrinsic meaning. We also help make something essential to life as we know it, connectivity from anywhere to anywhere, possible. We measure our success against these goals.

We are looking for a curious Courseware Developer and Technical Writer to join our mighty team! In this role you'll create customer-focused content, including comprehensive concepts, examples, tasks, reference information, and in-product guidance for HPE Networking's cutting-edge cloud services, automation, and Network Management products. You'll also have opportunities to lead technical documentation projects. The role requires the ability to grasp and translate complex technologies into easy-to-use content for our customers.

The ideal candidate is a subject matter expert in the content, and a persistent self-starter with strong collaborative skills who also has an interest in leading technical documentation projects. This ideal candidate enjoys continuous learning and professional growth and can excel in a fast-paced, highly-technical working environment.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, deliver, and maintain customer-facing, best-in-class user content.
• Produce a range of deliverables, including concepts and tasks for networking features, in-product content, installation instructions, illustrations, video scripts, course modules, and more.
• Collaborate with key stakeholders and subject matter experts to understand and identify requirements and customer needs.
• Analyze specifications and product descriptions and recommend the best documentation approach.
• Learn the customer experience through hands-on usage of our networking products.
• Follow established style and process guidelines to provide consistency and completeness.
• Lead technical documentation efforts with a small number of technical writers, in an environment with defined stakeholders and established processes.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Demonstrated ability to produce high-quality, accurate, and easy-to-use technical content, preferably for advanced software products.
• 5+ years of experience producing technical content.
• BA/BS in Technical Writing, English, Computer Science, or related degree/networking certification or comparable experience.
• Good understanding of technology concepts such as cloud computing, automation, networking, data centers, security, or other advanced software technology.
• Ability to research complex technical concepts (independently and collaboratively).
• Familiarity with XML authoring, content management, and courseware development tools.
• Strong problem-solving skills; ability to make progress with less-than-complete information.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
• Ability to utilize AI tools to scale the creation of content, retaining high quality output.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Hands-on experience with network technologies, including routing, switching, security, network automation, virtual machines, containers, and cloud-services.
• Hands-on experience with networking technologies such as cloud networking, routing, switching, data centers, or network security.
• Familiarity with DITA/XML authoring principles and content management concepts.
• Familiarity with Markdown and MS PowerPoint for authoring content.
• Experience leading technical documentation efforts with multiple writers.
• Familiarity with program management methodologies and systems such as Agile and JIRA.
• Familiarity with the HPE Aruba Networking and/or HPE Juniper Networking products and technologies.
• Have industry network certifications.
