You will build documentation and tooling solutions for clients, improve processes, and collaborate with clients while working remotely.
Summary Generated by Built In

DevDocs is a fully remote company that hires developers to build documentation and docs tooling for clients like Qualcomm, American Express, and C3 AI.

We don’t hire writers, and we don’t just crank out docs: our close-knit team is full of technical experts who can deeply understand a client’s products, consult on their problems, then design tools and systems to automate their docs processes (and write the most important docs).

What you’ll do

This role lives somewhere between engineer, writer, teacher, and toolmaker. You’ll:

  • Get dropped into new tech, figure it out fast, and make it make sense.
  • Build tools and AI workflows to make every project smoother.
  • Write docs, blogs, and social content.
  • Untangle messy knowledge structures and design something better.
  • Ask detailed questions, get to the root of things, and make it simpler.
  • Improve DevDocs itself - processes, tooling, weird experiments welcome.
What we’re looking for
  • You pick things up fast and figure stuff out without needing a map.
  • You write like you talk: clearly and directly.
  • You have a portfolio of written works
  • You think like an engineer and enjoy solving puzzles.
  • You’ve worked with clients or stakeholders and enjoy being social.
  • You’ve built projects for fun or because something annoyed you enough to fix it.
Company culture
  • Remote. U.S. timezone overlap, but otherwise flexible.
  • No grind. 40 hours/week. We actually mean it.
  • Real ownership. You’ll ship work and see it used.
  • Learning built-in. We carve out time and budget for it.
  • Room to grow. Projects shift, ideas evolve, roles expand. If you want to stretch, we’ll make space.

RequirementsIdeal background
  • 4+ years in software, hardware, or something technical.
  • Degree in CS, engineering, physics, etc. - or equivalent experience.

BenefitsThe fine print
  • 1099 Contractor (Ongoing).
  • Full-time (40hrs/week).
  • $40-75/hr based on experience and qualifications.
  • Raises are common after 6-12 months.
  • Monthly learning stipend.
  • Sick Leave
  • PTO
  • Paid Holidays
  • Must be authorized to work in the U.S. or Canada. No sponsorship available.
