Summary of the Associate Technical Writer job at Hevo Data

About Hevo:

Hevo is a no-code Data Pipeline platform trusted by 1,000+ companies globally, including Postman, Shopify, Doordash and Gartner. Backed by $42M from Peak XV Partners and Chiratae Ventures, we power the data infrastructure of companies that move fast.

We are consistently rated #1 on G2 in the ETL and Data Integration category (4.5+ rating) and are a Snowflake Premier Partner. Our product is in the market, loved by customers, and now entering its next growth phase.

With 600+ US customers already on the platform and a product that has matured significantly over the last two years, this is the ground-floor moment. Before the team scales, before the brand becomes obvious. The upside is real and uncapped.

About the Role:

We're looking for an Associate Technical Writer who's comfortable working in a docs-as-code environment and can partner with AI tools (e.g., Claude) for all aspects of the work — not just writing, but operating within an automated documentation pipeline.

This is an opportunity to own documentation end-to-end within a modern, AI-assisted workflow, working closely with engineering, product, and support stakeholders to keep a shared source of truth accurate and consistent.

What You'll Do:

• Create and maintain user documentation using a docs-as-code workflow — Markdown/YAML source files, Git-based version control, and CI-driven publishing (e.g., Jekyll).

• Independently own small documentation tickets and projects end-to-end, from research through PR merge.

• Use AI-assisted tools (Claude or equivalent) to draft, summarize, restructure, or QA content, while critically reviewing and editing AI output rather than publishing it as-is.

• Conduct research and gather technical information from product specs, engineering discussions, and existing docs to fill knowledge gaps.

• Follow and help enforce documentation standards, style guides, and metadata conventions (e.g., structured fields for error messages, FHS-style rule sets) across a shared source of truth.

• Work in Git-based workflows: branching, raising PRs, responding to review comments, and triggering automation for doc builds/publishing.

• Collaborate with engineering, product, and support stakeholders to validate technical accuracy before publishing.

• Flag ambiguous, unverified, or inferred content rather than publishing unconfirmed information.

What We're Looking For:

• Strong written English and ability to simplify technical concepts for end users.

• Basic familiarity with Markdown, Git (clone/branch/commit/PR), and a willingness to use docs-as-code tooling.

• Comfort using AI writing/review tools as part of a daily workflow (prompting, verifying, editing output), including the ability to create and manage Claude skills.

• Ability to read and interpret product UI, API docs, or basic YAML/JSON structures well enough to document them.

• Detail-oriented, especially around consistency (terminology, tone, formatting) across a large, distributed content set.

• 0-2 years of experience in technical writing, content, or a related field; internships or academic writing experience acceptable.

Bonus Points:

• Exposure to a ticketing/PM tool (Jira, Confluence) and Slack-based collaboration.

• Intermediate AI skills creation.
