Senior Technical Writer

Steyer Content – Mukilteo, WA, United States

*U.S. Citizenship required to be considered for this role.*

We are seeking a stellar technical writer with experience creating detailed operator and maintenance manuals and policies for advanced machinery – particularly robotics – for a contract engagement with a large and respected aerospace client. In this role, you will work closely with engineers and project managers to gather technical information and ultimately develop comprehensive documentation and product assembly instructions for specialized robots being developed. You will ensure that manuals are highly accurate and meet ISO certification standards and adhere to the ASDE TE100 style guide.

If you are the right fit, you are highly detailed, collaborate well with highly technical people, and can integrate seamlessly with dynamic, specialized robotics teams. You know how to quickly familiarize yourself with equipment and operations and translate that knowledge into clear and compliant manuals.

This is a full-time, remote, contract engagement slated for 3-6 months initially but there is strong potential for longer term extension if all goes well. Some onsite visits may be needed occasionally to become familiar with robots and systems. We’ll only be able to respond to applicants who meet the basic qualifications for this role. We offer a strong benefits package for full-time employees, including insurance coverage, paid time off, sick leave, wellness days, and access to ongoing learning resources. Please see https://www.steyer.net/benefits/ for more information about eligibility and offerings.

• U.S. citizenship due to ITAR regulations
• Experience writing technical manuals for advanced machinery
• Familiarity with SolidWorks or other CAD tools for 3D models and assembly drawings
