About the Role:
At CrowdStrike, we don't just document products - we help stop breaches. As a Technical Writer for LogScale, you'll be at the heart of that mission, owning a critical area of our product documentation and shaping how customers and internal teams interact with one of the most powerful data platforms in cybersecurity.
What You'll Do :
- Own your domain. Take full responsibility for a defined area of documentation, including content strategy, priorities, and quality - and make it exceptional.
- Write for real users. Develop and maintain documentation (hosted at library.humio.com) with a user-centered approach, translating complex engineering concepts into clear, actionable content.
- Work at scale. Gain deep hands-on experience with a large-scale, distributed, multi-petabyte software solution and learn to communicate its complexity with clarity.
- Structure and optimize content. Apply structured authoring principles within our information architecture to maximize content reuse and consistency across channels.
- Sharpen your automation skills. Build and improve tools that streamline the documentation workflow, and refine generative AI prompts to enhance content production.
- Collaborate with the best. Partner with developers, architects, and product managers to build technical knowledge and ensure documentation accurately reflects how the product works - and what that means for customers.
- Champion consistency. Develop a deep appreciation for style guides and process documentation, and help drive scalability across the content team.
- Grow continuously. Immerse yourself in industry-standard tools, processes, and an SDLC environment that will sharpen both your technical and writing skills.
What You'll Need:
- Proven experience writing product documentation for software products, with a strong user-centered focus
- Proficiency with structured authoring technologies, including DocBook, DITA, and XSLT
- Strong working knowledge of API documentation, particularly GraphQL and REST
- Experience with source control (Git or Mercurial), including branching, merging, and version control in command-line environments (Bash or Zsh)
- Familiarity with SaaS deployments, especially at large scale or in highly automated environments
- Sharp attention to detail and the ability to work independently while proactively identifying and executing improvements
- Proven experience utilizing AI technologies to enhance decision-making, streamline workflows and processes, improve efficiency and drive business outcomes.
Nice to Have:
- Experience in cybersecurity and/or large-scale data industries
- Programming knowledge in Java, Scala, JavaScript, Perl, or Python
- Understanding of database technologies, distributed systems, or SQL/GraphQL
- Familiarity with machine learning concepts and large language models
- A passion for automation and simplifying the path from engineering output to user-ready documentation
Who You Are:
You're curious, detail-oriented, and energized by complexity rather than intimidated by it.
You ask good questions, take feedback in stride, and care
