About the role

About

I’m a senior communications professional (12+ years) transitioning into technical writing, with a focus on fintech and SaaS. I’m looking for an experienced technical writer who can act as a hands-on coach for a short-term engagement (approximately 3–4 weeks).

This is not a theoretical or course-based request — I’m looking for practical, real-world guidance.

What I need:

I will be working on my first project with a company and need a coach to work with me through the process.

Support includes:

  • Review and feedback on portfolio pieces (user guides, process documentation, etc.)
  • Help structuring documentation to meet industry standards
  • Guidance on clarity, tone, and usability in technical documentation
  • Occasional Q&A support as I work through drafts

Ideal background:

  • Senior technical writer or content designer
  • Experience in SaaS, fintech, or digital products
  • Strong experience writing user-facing and/or internal documentation
  • Comfortable providing direct, constructive feedback

Engagement details:

  • 3–6 sessions total (30–60 minutes each)
  • Flexible scheduling
  • Open to hourly or package pricing

Goal:

To produce 2–3 high-quality portfolio pieces that reflect real-world technical writing standards.

If this sounds like a fit, please include:

  • A brief overview of your experience
  • Whether you’ve mentored or coached before
  • How you would structure this type of engagement

Looking forward to connecting.
