Technical Writer  Linux Kernel and Networking Development  Backend Developer

Job Title:
Sr. Contract Technical Writer – Wireless Networking (Contract / Hybrid)

Company:
Airvine is a fast-growing Silicon Valley start-up and innovator of intelligent broadband wireless backhaul solutions for the enterprise. The company has developed the industry’s first indoor 60 GHz wireless system that delivers multi-gigabit/sec data transfer rates without any of the complexity of legacy solutions and the newest products literally can “blast” through concrete. Patented RF innovations extend the range and gain of wireless signals, penetrating walls and steering around obstacles that impede transmission: something never before possible within the 60 GHz band.

Job Description:
The Sr. Technical Writer will develop high-quality technical documentation for wireless networking hardware products which include:

• User manuals
• Configuration guides
• Hardware installation guides
• QuickStart guides
• Network Management guides
• Command line interface (CLI) and Application Programming Interface (API) guides
• Other customer-facing documentation as may be required.

The optimal candidate will have some domain knowledge in and have written end-user technical documentation for hardware networking products such as: Wi-Fi Access Points, Fixed/Mobile Wireless Access Equipment, Layer 2/3 Networking Switches/Routers or testers, 4G/5G wireless access hardware.

We are optimally looking for someone who has “been there, done that” and can hit the ground running or at least have some domain knowledge and is a very fast learner.

With this hybrid role, the candidate must be able to commute to and work in our Santa Clara, CA facility (likely 1 day per week or more frequently as may be needed).

Hours: Approx: 10-30 Hours a week

Responsibilities:

Create impactful customer-facing technical product documentation describing how to install, configure, use, and manage Airvine’s wireless networking hardware products (WaveTunnel and WaveCore) and device/network management software.

Acquire in-depth and comprehensive product-specific and domain knowledge quickly through hands-on experience with products (hardware/software) and interaction with subject matter experts such as software/hardware developers, QA testers, Sales Engineering, and Product Managers and anticipate the user’s information needs.

Review and/or copyedit existing customer documentation or engineer-developed content while determining the clearest and most logical and concise way to present it for the greatest end-user comprehension.

Follow and/or establish Airvine document formats and templates employing good internal documentation practices and standards.

Qualifications/Skills:

Bachelor’s degree in computer science, engineering, technical writing, journalism, or a related field.

Working/domain technical knowledge and experience writing technical documents with the following:

• Wireless Networking Products (ex. WiFi, 5G/LTE, wireless transport solutions)
• Network switching/routing/testing products & Layer 2 networking concepts
• Experience documenting complex hardware products containing strong software content.

5+ years of experience writing technical documentation in a professional setting for technical audiences.

Must have a laptop and editing software tools (MS Word, Graphics, etc…).

Must be a resourceful, efficient, and creative self-starter with the ability to write about complex topics, often with minimal or vague guidance or instruction, often under tight time constraints.

Ability to be “hands-on” with the product and can write and document “by-using” the product.

Demonstrated experience creating, managing, and modifying technical diagrams, and graphics, and integrating them into user documentation.

We currently use MS Word but experience with other publishing tools, document management systems, and web/HTML is a plus.

Experience in the translation of documents into other languages (i.e. Spanish, AI tools, etc…) is a plus.
