Unqork is the no-code platform that's pioneering a new way for companies to build, deploy, and manage complex enterprise-grade applications. At this moment, Fortune 100 companies are using Unqork to create and deliver software without writing a single line of code.

Gary Hoberman, former CIO of Metlife, founded Unqork in 2017 with a team of hand-picked industry professionals. Together we're creating a massive paradigm shift in the way software is built. If you want to have a hand in defining the future of application development, we want to hear from you.

The Opportunity:

As a Technical Editor, you’ll work alongside a dynamic team to drive quality standards across Unqork’s content.

This role will report to the Technical Writing Manager. 

What You'll Do:

  • Act as a customer advocate, using the editorial process to ensure a high-quality experience for internal and external customers.

  • Manage and maintain the editing process ensuring multiple quality checks for organization, content, technical accuracy, and style.
  • Manage and maintain our internal style guide and word lists for group use.

  • Develop templates for the Technical Writers that are easy to adapt and apply and streamline processes.
  • Publish In-product Help and other content as needed.
  • Conduct quality assurance on published content.
  • Remain current on new developments in technical writing, editing, publishing, and the Unqork platform.
  • Development of new content.

What We're Looking For:

  • Experience as a technical writer within a team setting for a Saas-type organization - especially a growing organization with minimal structure.

  • Experience working with Jira in an agile environment.
  • Strong interpersonal and verbal communications skills.  An understanding of the technical aspects of a company and industry with the ability to relate this information back to readers.
  • Experience managing multiple projects and setting their schedules and priorities.
  • A proactive attitude and a focus on resolving problems and delivering results.
  • Style manual expertise.
  • Publishing experience.
  • Some familiarity with Madcap Flare and Central.
