Our client, a leader in AI technology, is looking for a skilled Technical Writer to join their team for a 3-month contract to hire engagement. This project involves defining the voice and structure of critical customer-facing content for their innovative product vision and architecting scalable documentation solutions. This is a high-impact role that requires a self-motivated professional who can hit the ground running and deliver results quickly.
Key Responsibilities & Deliverables:
This role is focused on the successful completion of specific tasks and deliverables. Your responsibilities will include:
