Role
We are looking for a Technical Writer to join the Technical Publications department. This is a remote role, reporting to the Manager, Technical Publications. You will help deliver a growing portfolio of capabilities in threat prevention and business enablement by turning complex technical information into clear, effective documentation. Join us to make your mark on the planning and product roadmap at the forefront of the world’s cloud security leader.
What you’ll do (Role Expectations)
- Translate complex technical information into high-quality documentation and UI text—including release notes, tooltips, and error messages—tailored for both technical and non-technical audiences
- Enhance documentation usability and clarity by integrating strategic graphics, illustrations, and visual aids
- Collaborate cross-functionally with SMEs in Engineering, Field Support, Sales, and Product Marketing to ensure technical accuracy and content relevance
- Drive user experience by establishing documentation standards, style guides, and terminology to ensure consistency across all platforms
- Lead and mentor the technical writing team while overseeing project scheduling and management to ensure the timely delivery of all documentation initiatives
Who You Are (Success Profile)
- You thrive in ambiguity. You're comfortable building the path as you walk it. You thrive in a dynamic environment, seeing ambiguity not as a hindrance, but as the raw material to build something meaningful.
- You act like an owner. Your passion for the mission fuels your bias for action. You operate with integrity because you genuinely care about the outcome. True ownership involves leveraging dynamic range: the ability to navigate seamlessly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.
- You are a problem-solver. You love running towards the challenges because you are laser-focused on finding the solution, knowing that solving the hard problems delivers the biggest impact.
- You are a high-trust collaborator. You are ambitious for the team, not just yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing feedback—knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.
- You are a learner. You have a true growth mindset and are obsessed with your own development, actively seeking feedback to become a better partner and a stronger teammate. You love what you do and you do it with purpose.
What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)
- U.S. citizen with 3+ years of technical writing experience and a Bachelor’s degree or equivalent in Communications, Technical Writing, or a related field (certifications included)
