About the role

  • Technical Writer handling documentation for a FinTech platform. Collaborating with Engineers and Product Owners to ensure clarity and accuracy of API and platform documentation.

Responsibilities

  • Establish and run a robust, repeatable process for documenting new product functionality as it is released.
  • Own the creation of high-quality, merchant-facing documentation for APIs, integrations, and platform features.
  • Work directly with Engineers during feature delivery to: review design documents, exercise APIs using tools such as Postman, ask clarifying questions and validate behaviour.
  • Partner with Product Owners to validate that documentation reflects intended product behaviour, while removing documentation workload from POs.
  • Maintain and improve documentation structure, clarity, and discoverability within our existing platform (ReadMe).
  • Allocate roughly 70% of time to net-new documentation and 30% to cleanup and restructuring of existing docs.
  • Contribute to defining what “good” documentation workflows look like, and collaborate with stakeholders to simplify and improve publishing processes.
  • Ensure documentation is timely, accurate, and aligned with release timelines.

Requirements

  • Proven experience writing technical documentation for APIs, developer tools, or complex platforms.
  • Strong written English, with excellent attention to clarity, structure, and audience.
  • Hands-on experience using Postman or similar tools to exercise APIs.
  • Solid understanding of back-end concepts such as APIs, authentication, data flows, and environments.
  • Comfortable working directly with Engineers and Product teams in an agile environment.
  • Ability to drive documentation proactively, rather than waiting for requests.
  • Strong organisational skills and ability to manage multiple documentation streams in parallel.

Benefits

  • Flexible, remote-first working
  • 33 days holiday including public holidays
  • Birthday off
  • Family healthcare
  • Life insurance
  • Employee assistance programme
  • Investment in learning and development
  • Regular team events and off-sites
  • A collaborative culture where documentation is treated as a first-class product
