All content must adhere to CSC-approved branding and formatting standards and is reviewed and approved by relevant SMEs prior to publishing.
This position requires approximately 10-15 hours of cross-functional communication weekly across US time zones.

  • Create Help Hero in-app tours, feature release notifications, and alerts for AppealTrack and License Pro products
  • Edit conference-related videos and documents, including captioning, audio quality review, and copyediting of PowerPoints
Collaboration & Communication
  • Collaborate with SMEs, product managers, trainers, and instructional designers across US time zones to gather source material and ensure accuracy
  • Analyze design specifications and requirements with project managers, sales teams, and other appropriate stakeholders
  • Participate across multiple platforms-including SharePoint, Box, NetSuite, and issue trackers-to ensure all documentation needs are met
  • Communicate issues or risks to project leads proactively
  • Provide peers with assistance and foster a team environment where ideas to improve efficiency, process, and morale are welcomed
  • Perform effectively as a collaborative team member while also working independently with minimal supervision
Customer Focus & Professional Development
  • Understand and anticipate customer business needs; proactively search for opportunities to exceed customer expectations
  • Build and maintain strong customer and stakeholder relationships through clear, professional communication
  • Adapt to change in projects and the organization with a positive and solutions-oriented mindset
  • Seek opportunities to fulfill goals in your career development plan, such as training or stretch project tasks

What technical skills, experience, and qualifications do you need?
  • Minimum of three years of experience writing or editing technical documents
  • Four-year degree or certification in technical communication or a related field
  • Experience using Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat, and image editing software (e.g., SnagIt)
