Staff Technical Writer

From Fivetran's founding until now, our mission has remained the same : to make access to data as simple and reliable as electricity. With Fivetran, customer data arrives in their warehouses, canonical and ready to query, with no engineering or maintenance required. We're proud that more organizations continue to leverage our technology every day to become truly data-driven.

About The Role

Fivetran's documentation receives rave reviews from our customers—it is a core part of our product. The Technical Communications Team owns technical documentation and in-product text. Our globally distributed team of technical writers collaborates with Product Managers, Engineers, Designers, and Technical Support to produce world-class documentation and UI copy that helps our users succeed.

As a Staff Technical writer, your mission is to make Fivetran docs a shining beacon of documentation excellence. You will write and edit enterprise documentation that empowers our customers to use Fivetran and understand how our database and data lake products work. You'll collaborate with engineers, product managers, support engineers, and other technical writers. You join a friendly team of technical writers distributed among our international offices.

This is a full-time position based out of our Bangalore office. Our hybrid work model offers a blend of remote flexibility and in-person collaboration, including two days in the office each week to connect and build as a team.

What You'll Do

• Create and maintain clear, accurate product documentation and release notes that help customers succeed.
• Review and refine customer-facing content, including error messages and UI text.
• Use a docs-as-code approach to co-author documentation with engineers, product managers, and contributors across the company.
• Improve existing documentation by ensuring technical accuracy, clarity, and consistency.
• Collaborate with a global writing team to define and evolve documentation standards, style, and terminology.
• Partner with engineers, SMEs, and cross-functional teams to deliver best-in-class technical documentation.
• Contribute to style guides, templates, and other shared resources that raise the bar for all company content.
• Act as a writing resource for other teams, helping improve content quality across the organization.
