Job summary

Camunda is seeking a Senior Technical Writer to own documentation across our AI‑oriented platform. Embedded with product teams, you’ll collaborate with engineers, PMs, and designers to deliver clear, accurate content aligned with the product experience.

You will become a subject matter expert, writing developer guides, API references, tutorials, and blogs, using Docs‑as‑Code workflows with Docusaurus, Git, and Markdown. Remote‑friendly role with global impact.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of technical writing experience (including senior or equivalent) and a strong portfolio of developer‑focused content such as user guides, installation guides, API references, tutorials, and technical blog posts.
• Hands‑on expertise with Java, Kubernetes, Helm, Docker, and related technologies, and a proven ability to deeply understand and use complex technical products (ideally with Camunda 8 or similar products).
• Experience with writing about AI concepts, including a good understanding of large language models (LLMs), retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG), model context Protocol (MCP), and other emerging AI technologies (for example, agentic orchestration).
• Proven ability to tailor content for diverse audiences and technical backgrounds, including software engineers, application developers, business analysts, and process owners.
• Experience with Docs‑as‑Code workflows and documentation frameworks such as Docusaurus, with comfort using Git and Markdown in a developer‑centric environment.
• Ability and/or willingness to use our product.

Responsibilities

• Own and drive the documentation for one or more product areas, acting as the embedded technical writer within the corresponding product teams.
• Work closely with engineers, product managers, and designers to stay deeply informed about the product roadmap and ensure documentation is accurate, timely, and aligned with feature development.
• Become a subject matter expert in your assigned product areas, developing hands‑on experience with the products to create documentation that reflects real‑world usage and developer needs.
• Lead documentation efforts from concept through release—planning, writing, reviewing, and maintaining content that empowers developers to succeed with Camunda technologies.
• Advocate for documentation as a critical part of the user experience, bringing the user’s perspective into product discussions and influencing design and implementation where appropriate.
• Continuously improve the structure, clarity, and completeness of the documentation based on analytics, user feedback, and your own insights.
• Collaborate with other writers and the broader Documentation team to share best practices, contribute to team goals, and evolve our documentation tooling and standards.
