Technical writer/SEO Content Engineer (SaaS / Developer Docs)

Nalpeiron

Remote (Global) Contract Mid Level $70k – $100k/yr Yesterday

About the role

Overview

WE ARE LOOKING FOR A US, UK, OR NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKER ONLY - do NOT apply if that's not the case, you will be rejected.

We are looking for a remote contractor (or full-time team member) to transform our technical documentation, written in Git Book, into a high-performing SEO acquisition channel.

This is not a traditional technical writing role - it requires structuring, optimizing, and expanding technical content to rank in search and AI-driven discovery (ChatGPT, Google SGE).

A person with a deep background in documentation, technical writing, and at least a good understanding of SEO (from a docs perspective).

It will require the use of AI tooling and the latest techniques to speed up the process and get better results.

This is a core role for us - you will be our Docs Growth Owner, not just a technical writer.

YOU WILL BE WORKING WITH AN SEO AGENCY, so we are not expecting a seasoned SEO expert; we are more interested in docs/video expertise.

NOTE: Video is a large part of this job, creating compelling training and doc support videos for technical users.

You will own:

  • Development of high-quality docs - including video content, how-to articles, and case studies to make using our software products easier and to reduce support load.
  • KPI: organic traffic + rankings
  • Ownership of docs, SEO, and content >page 1
  • Ownership of AI placement, so the docs pages are recommended in all AI engines
  • Backlinking strategy between various properties
  • Opportunity to own our full docs process if this project is successful, i.e., technical writing and doc production

We will filter candidates by:

  • Thinking quality and use of the AI toolset
  • Structure and quality output (not just AI B.S. blurb)
  • Technical understanding of the messaging and ability to communicate technical concepts
