At GitLab, our team of technical writers is responsible for ensuring that the documentation for all of our products is clear, correct, comprehensive, and easy to use. The Technical Writing team manages the docs.gitlab.com site and its content, processes, and tooling.
As a Technical Writer at GitLab, you’ll collaborate with Engineers, who typically write the first draft of docs for the new features they create. You’ll dive in on special projects, planning and authoring new content and helping craft new doc site features and processes. You’ll collaborate with others across the organization to help them contribute to the documentation. You’ll be at the leading edge of DevSecOps while contributing to one of the world’s largest open-source projects and engaging with our wider community.
What you’ll do
Continuously improve GitLab documentation content in collaboration with engineers, product managers, and others.
Work on Quarterly OKRs that focus on making our docs site a world-class experience, such as rewriting our existing documentation to align with concept, task, reference, and troubleshooting (CTRT) topic types.
Peer review other writers' work.
Continuously improve team processes and style guides, as well as cross-functional efforts, such as the GitLab Handbook.
Take part in company-wide events such as reviewing merge requests for Hackathons.
What you’ll bring
Must have demonstrated experience writing software documentation in a docs-as-code approach (this is a hard requirement)
Hands on experience with Git
Experience working with CI/CD
Exemplary writing and editing skills
Remote development experience
Experience working in a highly collaborative environment
