We’re looking for a Technical Content Writer to write and improve the content that helps our (potential) customers use AppSignal. You will work with our product, development, and growth teams to develop and maintain comprehensive product documentation and other forms of content that set users up for success with AppSignal.
Your responsibilities
Developers look at our documentation, integrations, and product while (thinking about) trying AppSignal for the first time. We want the developer experience to be amazing in every interaction. We’d love for you to take a leading role in coming up with improvements for our documentation and guides, and get your hands dirty in collaboration with different teams.
Experimenting with new types of content
We produce content to reach developers in different phases of the buying process. This content should be about helping them learn more about our product and enabling them to try AppSignal. For example, you might write guides that will explain how to set up AppSignal for different use cases or posts that will summarize the benefits of adding an APM to the dev stack.
This is what *you* have to offer
- Excellent English communication skills, in speaking and writing.
- You can translate complex product information into simple, polished, engaging content, including blog posts, documentation, and product guides.
- You have worked as a technical writer before and produced content for developers.
- You come from a development background or have developer skills, e.g. you can create a demo project and add AppSignal as a tool.
- You love working in a remote team.
- You have knowledge of AppSignal or similar monitoring solutions.
- You have an understanding of SaaS businesses.
- You like to work in a way that makes the world a bit better, in a team that tries to make things better for developers and ourselves every day.
- This is a remote job, but we meet (under normal, non-COVID circumstances) once a year in The Netherlands so you’ll need to be willing and able to travel (expenses covered).
- You like to work at an informal company (no, that’s not a codeword for chaos in the workplace; we’ve been running businesses since 2002).
This is what *we* have to offer
- Competitive salary, based on skills and experience.
- Budget to rent a workplace because we believe working remotely can be better when not-from-home.
- Unlimited vacation days (with a minimum of 20 days, most of us take around 30).
- Personal development budget (books, courses, conferences).
- Once a year, we’ll make a donation to a charity of your choosing.
- Work in a growing, profitable company with a proven business model and an experienced team.
- Room to grow: There are constant opportunities to learn more and take on new responsibilities.
- You’ll be employed directly at AppSignal, through an employer of record, or through long-term contracting based on your location and personal preferences.
