About the Role
We’re looking for a collaborative and detail-oriented Senior Technical Writer to own our customer-facing documentation and empower users with clear, actionable instructions and guidance. In this role, you’ll be the go-to expert for communicating how our products work—empowering customers through best-in-class documentation and cross-functional collaboration.

What You'll Accomplish

    • Produce clear, accurate, and comprehensive customer-facing documentation for new and updated Attentive products, including in our Help Center and API/developer documentation.
    • Own the end-to-end documentation process for feature releases: from early feature exploration, product testing, and SME interviews to writing, editing, and publishing.
    • Maintain and improve our existing documentation to ensure content is accurate, up to date, and aligns with our brand and style guides.
    • Evaluate and improve the overall information architecture of our Help Center and developer docs to ensure intuitive navigation and discoverability.
    • Develop and monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure content effectiveness and continuously improve the Help Center customer experience.
    • Use data to make decisions—track usage, identify gaps, and refine documentation to reduce support ticket volume and improve user experience.
    • Partner closely with cross-functional teams—including Product Management, Customer Education, Marketing, and Support—to translate complex product information into easy-to-understand content.
    • Contribute to a unified customer education strategy by collaborating on content for other channels, such as in-app guides (Pendo), video walkthroughs, and our learning academy.

Your Expertise

    • You have 5+ years of experience in technical writing, product documentation, or content development—ideally in a B2B SaaS.
    • You have exceptional technical writing and editing skills, with a keen eye for detail, clarity, and consistency.
    • Ability to quickly understand complex technical concepts and distill them into language appropriate for non-technical users.
    • Experience writing documentation for both end-users and developers, with a solid understanding of REST APIs, webhooks, and developer workflows.
    • You’re proficient with content creation and management tools, including Google Workspace and Zendesk Guide.
    • You’re familiar with APIs and API documentation tools like Redocly, screen-capture software like SnagIt, and task management tools like Jira and monday.com.
    • You have strong project management skills and can balance long-term initiatives alongside day-to-day requests without losing track of the details.
    • You’re an excellent communicator and collaborator, skilled at working with a diverse set of stakeholders and subject matter experts to gather information and drive projects forward.
    • You’re resourceful and self-motivated—eager to test features on your own, ask thoughtful questions, and prepare thoroughly to make the best use of your time with subject matter experts. 
    • You have experience working with contributing technical writers (such as agency partners or teammates) that includes assigning tasks, providing constructive feedback, and ensuring adherence to style guidelines and best practices.
You'll get competitive perks and benefits, from health & wellness to equity, to help you bring your best self to work.
