• Identify opportunities to improve our documentation processes and tools to make the whole team more efficient.

Required Experience/Skills:

• 6-10+ years of technical writing experience.
• Ability to write clean, concise, and approachable content.
• Experience with AI tools for problem solving and content creation such as Cursor or Claude Code.

• Ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple deliverables across different product areas.
• Demonstrated experience working collaboratively with cross-functional teams, including developers, product managers, and subject matter experts.
• Proven ability to conduct in-depth research, gather information from technical sources, and synthesize it into understandable content.
• Superb communication and interpersonal skills.
• Appetite for learning and experimenting with new tools, and ability to quickly incorporate them into daily workflows. 
• Experience with source control software and managing complex documentation builds.
• Familiarity with XML/DITA and Markdown.

Desired Experience/Skills:

• Experience with Salesforce-specific technologies (Apex, Lightning Web Components, etc.).
• Experience working within a global team.
