We're looking for an amazingly ambitious, technical and product-focused UX writer to establish Docs + Content as a first-class web product at Primer. We believe documentation has the power to inspire the delight, and should be given the same care and attention to detail as any other product.

  • Work closely with our Co-founder and Head of Product + Engineering, and the engineering and product teams to articulate and author content
  • Figure out how best to automate documentation across all channels, whilst ensuring we deliver a personal touch and maintain a cohesive messaging around how Primer works

Requirements
  • Experience in a senior, or instrumental position at a developer-focused SaaS
  • Working knowledge of Git
  • Strong familiarity with markdown and other templating languages and tools
  • Some familiarity with backend languages, eg. Python, PHP, Ruby, etc.
