Senior Technical Writer

Sweep is hiring a Senior Technical Writer to work on our enterprise climate program software.

 

Climate change is the defining challenge of our era, and technology is at the center of the fight. Sweep is arming companies with tools to manage their climate impact, thereby contributing to a better future for everyone. 

 

Ok, sounds promising. What will I be doing?

 

As part of the Product team, you will be responsible for creating and maintaining documentation for our cutting-edge carbon and ESG platform that helps companies manage increasing disclosure requirements and meet sustainable business goals.

To be more specific, this includes:

• Understand the Sweep app inside out, and stay up-to-date on the on-going developments of its features and functionalities
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (including Product, Engineering, and Customer Success) to meet technical content needs
• Develop accurate, creative, and engaging technical content, across various channels (documentation articles, online training programs, and in-product guidance)
• Create, maintain, and improve articles, online learning courses, and in-app text, keeping in step with product developments
• Write, edit, and review content independently, working in a structured authoring environment
• Oversee translation of documentation articles and online courses, ensuring accuracy and consistency
• Stay informed on customer behaviours, product developments, company activities, and industry trends

 

That sounds just right for me. What do I need to bring?
