Write API docs in New York for USD 125,000 to 140,000, lead launch documentation at Okta in Bengaluru, start as a junior technical writer in Ireland, document an LNG operation in Doha
46 jobs, 10 hiring posts from LinkedIn and 2 freelance and contract leads for technical writing this week.
Put together each week by Udaay Alney
This week
- This is the first issue laid out by region. Besides India it lists roles in the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia and the Gulf, each with a line on who can apply.
- Every United States role below states its pay. Three of the eight say they do not sponsor visas, and none offers sponsorship.
- Hyderabad had three technical writing roles this week, at Infor, Blackbaud and Nexsys Process Automations.
- The Gulf searches returned one real technical writing role, in Doha. The other results were clinical or banking documentation jobs.
- Only two remote roles said in their own text that they hire across countries. Most listings tagged worldwide named a single country once I read them, so they were left out.
- Hiring posts now come from outside India too. This week they are from Canada, the United States and Germany, next to six from India.
Nothing in this list matches. Clear the filter to see every role.
