Contract Technical Writer

Airfoil is making all data accessible with one query.

We are looking for a technical writer to help us seed the documentation and knowledge base for our upcoming launch. We are making data integration accessible to non-technical users and we need a place where people can fill their knowledge gaps. We see documentation as an integral part of our application, helping users understand how to make the best use of Airfoil.

🎯 Why Airfoil?

• We’re a small team, you will work in strong contact with the founders.
• Fully async: we trust you to manage your own time.
• Like the name Airfoil, AI is at the forefront of what we do but it’s subtle. We use AI to evaluate documentation on real-world tasks and find what needs improvement.
• Own your work. We can publish your work under your name (or not, up to you!).

🚢 What you’ll do

• Sketch the knowledge base structure and write its content. This is a wiki-like section of our documentation used to provide background information to the user (for example, what is a “catalog”, “Apache Iceberg”, “data lake”, “data lakehouse”, etc.).
• Research the data integration space. We don’t expect you to know everything already, research is part of your job. If you’re interested in the data space, this is a great opportunity to deep dive into it!
• Write product documentation. Decide how to organise the documentation to guide the user understanding our product and what value it brings.
• Write a “connector documentation template”. We will add 100+ connectors in a matter of months, we need a clear structure on how to document them.
