• Support our community of contributors by reviewing submissions and making it easy to collaborate on high-quality content.

Must-have

• 5+ years creating technical documentation for developer-facing products.
• Experience with Docs-as-Code workflows, using tools like Git, Markdown, and static site generators.
• Comfort diving into technical concepts — APIs, JavaScript, JSON — and exploring tools like n8n hands-on.
• Proven ability to write with structure and clarity while keeping tone warm and accessible.
• Strong understanding of how documentation impacts adoption, engagement, and developer experience.

Nice-to-have

• Background in engineering, computer science, or a related technical field.
