About Us:

Finix is on a mission to create the most accessible fintech market in history. To do so, we are building the global operating system for fintech. We’re rewriting the financial services industry, one API at a time, to lower barriers to entry, drive competition, and make the financial system more equitable and accessible to all businesses around the world. 


Finix is unique in the market. We build payments infrastructure for vertically-focused software companies (think restaurant, yoga studio and winery software) and fintech providers so they can own and monetize payments without the heavy lift of building complex systems from scratch or relying entirely on disjointed third-party services. Our job is to make our customers’ lives easier by making payments invisible.


About the Role:

The Technology organization at Finix owns the delivery and customer experience of our product end to end. The Lead Technical Writer will work with our Product team and other cross-functional teams to create, curate, and organize internal and external documentation. Applicants should have extensive experience managing documentation as code, excellent writing skills, and a passion for creating taxonomy.

You Will

  • Build tooling and infrastructure for Finix’s Documentation-as-Code environment.
  • Collaborate with numerous agile teams to document releases and create external facing content.
  • Create and curate documentation to ensure that it is findable, relevant, and up-to-date.
  • Become an expert at how the product is used and be able to explain the “why” as well as the “how”.
  • Take a holistic view of documentation at Finix and come up with a strategy to improve that documentation.
  • Be able to write new material and edit existing content for grammar and clarity.
  • Have the ability to independently design and execute large-scale documentation projects.
  • Grasp complex technical concepts and articulate them clearly and accurately.
  • Experience using the Linux shell, command-line Git, HTML/CSS, and Python.
