You’ll create and deliver high-quality technical content, including academy modules, blog posts, tutorials, and videos, ensuring clarity, accessibility, and relevance. Drawing on both technical writing and instructional design, you’ll partner with DevRel, Engineering, and Product teams to transform complex topics into engaging and effective learning experiences across formats.

• Educational Design: Incorporate instructional design principles (scaffolding, assessments, storytelling) into all content
• Analytics & Feedback: Track learner engagement, course metrics, and feedback to iteratively improve content
• Community Spotlighting: Highlight community-built content, feature guest posts, and amplify the voices of developers

Requirements

• Background in Web3, blockchain, zero-knowledge tech, and open source ecosystems
• 3+ years in technical writing, developer education, curriculum design, or a DevRel-related content role
• Proven ability to explain complex technical topics clearly (written and spoken)
• Experience with tutorials, blogs, video guides, or training modules
• Comfort with Markdown, GitHub, educational tools (LMS, analytics)
• Ability to work collaboratively across teams and time zones
• Experience making technical content accessible not just to humans, but to AI agents (writing agent-friendly documentation, prompt-aware tutorials)
• Bonus: familiarity with video tools (OBS, Camtasia) or educational frameworks (SCORM, microlearning)

• New starter package to buy hardware essentials (headphones, monitor, etc)
