About the job
Technical writers communicate complex information clearly, concisely and accurately, and without relying on jargon. As a technical writer, your role involves tasks such as writing conceptual overviews and procedures, reading and writing example code, or updating help center queries and FAQs. Technical writers play a big part at Google. They are a key link between developers, marketing associates, developer advocates, as well as all the external users and developers, tying together many vital but disparate parts of the Google ecosystem.
You develop complex, in-depth communications for internal and external audiences and manage projects that involve coordinating multiple junior writers.
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning is a critical area of investment for Google. We have a big opportunity to further unify developer tooling and infrastructure to meet the fast pace of innovation in an ever evolving field that is critical to many of Google’s products.
