Technical writer/SEO Content Engineer (SaaS / Developer Docs)
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 GitBook (https://docs.nalpeiron.com), 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
