Technical Writer, IT Support Documentation

This role is responsible for organizing, standardizing, and improving IT Support documentation for both internal and external use. The writer will create a scalable documentation model that supports human readers as well as AI agents, with the goal of establishing a repeatable standard for future documentation work.

Core responsibilities

Organize and categorize IT Support knowledge into a clear, maintainable structure.

Write and maintain team SOPs for internal and external audiences.

Build a documentation framework that can serve as the model for future documentation across the team.

Create standardized templates for procedures, troubleshooting guides, knowledge base articles, and operational documentation.

Develop writing instructions and formatting rules that AI tools can follow to convert raw documentation into a consistent standard format.

Partner with Codex and other AI tools to improve draft quality, while ensuring final output is clearer, more usable, and better written than AI-generated first drafts.

Translate fragmented notes, legacy docs, and raw process information into polished, structured documentation ready for delivery to IT.

Establish taxonomy, naming conventions, and content categories so knowledge is easy to find, maintain, and reuse.

Initially focus on IT Support workflows, with the potential to the model to other teams later.
