As a Senior Technical Writer, you’ll be a leading voice on the Documentation team at 1Password. Our team’s mission: communicate complex ideas about 1Password, simply. On this creative and highly collaborative team, you’ll be a prime contributor to written work that helps people (especially developers and administrators) use and understand 1Password better. You have strong time-management skills and are comfortable navigating ambiguity and managing competing priorities.

The written word is your art form as you craft high-quality and crystal-clear docs. You’ll work collaboratively and cross-functionally within and outside the Sales Enablement team. Forging collaborative relationships is in your DNA, because you know it’s important to bring multiple perspectives together to write the best documentation. You also have substantial experience interfacing with engineers and enjoy explaining SDKs, cross-domain identity management, or how a product functions in a multi-cloud environment.

This is a remote opportunity within Canada and the United States. Please provide us with writing samples along with your application. Be sure to describe your role in the writing you submit.

Instead of covering the latest embargoed study or news announcement, we're more excited about the unique stories and fresh angles that will fascinate our readers and make waves among the journalistic community. 

Some great examples of this include:

• Our follow-up coverage of the Mississippi River drought. While many outlets just focused on the drought, we continued to monitor the situation, publishing this article months after the initial news. 
• A reality check of what Butterfly Town, USA really looks like. Spoiler: It's disappointing.
• When the world was talking about the "Chinese spy balloon," we posed a different, equally relevant, question: What would announcing the discovery of alien life actually go like?

If you are interested, please pitch us at science@insider.com. 

In your pitch, include a headline that matches Insider's conversational style and tone as well as a brief 100 to 200-word description of the article's main takeaways and the sources you would plan to interview.

We look forward to hearing from you!
