Job summary

Mapbox is seeking a Developer Relations documentarian who can keep docs.mapbox.com accurate and current by making small fixes, updates, and improvements. You will work hands-on with code samples, MDX/React, and the product to write about it accurately for a community of developers.

In this role you triage feedback, manage PRs, and partner with product teams for new features. A strong writer with coding experience thrives here and can grow into larger projects over time.

Qualifications

• 2–4 years of professional experience.
• Developer-first with coding ability to contribute to docs.
• Writes clearly and explains technical concepts.
• Willing to learn Mapbox product deeply.
• Familiar with git/GitHub workflows, Markdown/MDX, and React.js.

Responsibilities

• Make routine updates to docs.mapbox.com: correcting errors, clarifying language, updating code samples, and keeping content in sync with product changes.
• Triage incoming user feedback on documentation, working with partners across the org to fix issues quickly and elevate the ones that need deeper attention.
• Manage the git/GitHub workflow for docs contributions — branching, pull requests, and reviews — since our docs live in a static site built with markdown/MDX and React.js.
• Work directly in the Mapbox product (web, mobile, and/or embedded SDKs) to understand what you're documenting, rather than editing from a distance.
• Partner with product teams to support new feature and product launches with clear, accurate documentation.
• Help prototype lightweight tooling or workflows that make it faster and easier to keep docs up to date.
• Support other Developer Relations initiatives as needed, including community programs and general upkeep of the docs platform.
