Technical Writer - Content Delivery and Multi-Channel Publishing (human)

Your mission & challenges
Your general tasks:

Preparation of high‑quality, standards‑compliant technical documentation in English (e.g., operating, assembly, repair, and maintenance instructions)

Structured creation, maintenance, and further development of modular content in the XML‑based content management system Quanos Schema ST4

Development and further optimization of efficient information architectures and documentation structures

Creation of translation‑friendly content and support of the translation and localization process

Close collaboration with interdisciplinary, cross‑site teams throughout the product development process

Use of modern collaboration and knowledge‑management tools: Confluence, Jira, Teams, SharePoint

Your focus tasks:

Building, maintaining, and further developing a Docs‑as‑Code framework (e.g., Git, Markdown, reStructuredText, CI/CD‑based publication processes) for development teams, including templates, guidelines, and review processes

Creating or contributing to code‑related documentation, such as API references and interface specifications

Using and integrating technologies such as Sphinx, Doxygen, Breathe, or comparable tools to document technologies like Python, C++, and ROS or industrial communication protocols like Modbus, Profinet, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT

Harmonizing ST4‑based content with Docs‑as‑Code workflows in the future

Close collaboration with software developers and Product Owners to ensure technical accuracy

What we can look forward to

Training as a Technical Writer, a comparable qualification, or specialization in a relevant field

Alternatively: technical degree or graduation from a technical college

Knowledge in the creation of code‑related documentation (APIs, interfaces)

Confident use of Sphinx, Doxygen, Breathe, or similar toolchains

Understanding of programming languages such as Python, C++, ideally ROS and industrial communication protocols like Modbus, Profinet, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT

Ability to build and maintain an internal documentation framework (templates, guidelines)

Experience in robotics or related mechatronics/automation environments is desirable
