We create and provide a variety of documentation, all intended to help various audiences become quickly productive with our products, increase their level of mastery, and provide self-help resources.

• Work closely with our R&D team to create manuals, release notes, and related technical documentation for Board customers, partners and developers
• Liaise with our Support, Customer Success, and Partner teams, develop Onboarding guides, FAQs, help articles
• Develop in-product help snippets, which are accessed just in time by users in their moment of need
• Maintain our dictionary/glossary of Board-specific terms which must be maintained across translations
• Provide direction to localization vendors and review their output for quality & consistency.
• Support on blogs and best practices on the community

What we look for:

• Bachelor’s Degree from an accredited University or College, preferably with a Marketing, General Business or technical emphasis
• Exceptional written communication skills in English
• Prior experience developing commercial documentation in any of the areas above
• Prior experience working with localization vendors
• Exceptional interpersonal skills, with a track record of fostering relationships and aligning teams across multiple departments
