This role plays a critical part in maturing and scaling platform engineering capabilities by creating clear, structured, and standardized technical documentation that supports developer productivity, operational excellence, and platform adoption. While the primary focus is Platform Engineering (DevOps, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, developer tooling, internal platforms, service catalogs, etc.), this individual will also partner across the broader IT organization to ensure documentation consistency, governance, and usability standards are established and maintained enterprise-wide. In addition to documentation development, this role will serve as a documentation systems steward—supporting the management, structure, and optimization of Notion as the centralized knowledge platform for IT.

Develop and maintain developer onboarding guides, integration documentation, and technical FAQs.

Create and maintain documentation templates, style guides, taxonomies, and governance practices for all engineering teams. Ensure documentation is accurate, up-to-date, and versioned in alignment with product and platform releases. Work within a docs-as-code workflow, managing documentation in Git-based repositories. Participate in Agile ceremonies and manage documentation tasks within sprint cycles. Review and edit technical content produced by subject matter experts for clarity, consistency, and completeness. Proactively identify documentation gaps and establish documentation KPIs (adoption, completeness, freshness). What’s Required 5+ years of experience in technical writing for software engineering or technology products. Experience documenting platform engineering, DevOps, or cloud infrastructure systems. Experience documenting APIs (REST, GraphQL) using tools such as Swagger/OpenAPI, Redoc, or Postman. Proficiency with documentation management tools (Notion, Confluence, ReadTheDocs, MkDocs).
