🚀 About you 

You’re looking for an environment, team, and role where you’ll thrive and do the best work of your career. That’s why, as a Senior Technical Writer at Quantum Metric: 

You are an owner. You’ll have a “seat at the table” from Day 1. Your partners and peers value what you do and expect you to have strong opinions. 

You work across silos. You work with UX, product, support, engineering, and marketing to deliver clear, compelling, and actionable content to help our customers unlock the value of data. 

You crave impact. Your success looks like helping thousands of brands meet the needs of over a billion people. Sound exciting? We think so too.

You work from anywhere (and with anyone!). You’ll be able to work where and how you work best: at home, the office, or any mix of both. 

đź’ˇAbout your opportunity 

Quantum Metric bridges the gap between the unknown and delight by helping our clients find, diagnose and optimize all of their digital experiences (and some offline too!). We work with some of the largest brands in the world to build cultures maniacally focused on solving for the customer. Our success across Quantum Metric scales to over a billion end users a year. If you want to have an impact, this is the place to do it. We’re a small start up of just over 400 people, but work with some of the largest brands in the world to help customers have better experiences.

🔧 We’re looking for someone who will:

  • Develop, write, and edit technical materials, such as user manuals, installation guides, help documents, and FAQs, ensuring technical veracity and accessibility.
  • Continuously improve Quantum Metric documentation content in collaboration with engineers, product managers, and others.
  • Work on making our docs site a world-class experience, such as rewriting our existing documentation to align with customer impact and value. 
  • Peer review other team members’ work.
  • Continuously improve team processes and style guides, as well as cross-functional efforts, such as the Quad Help Center.
  • Puts customers at the center of everything they do
  • Can balance scope, speed, and quality to reach outcomes
  • Understands how your projects align with and advance a company-wide strategy
  • Practices a growth mindset - you want to learn, be challenged and do the same with others

UX at Quantum Metric

We are a small, mighty team of UX practitioners that challenge one another everyday to be our best. We’re a passionate and diverse group who build consumer-grade experiences while solving enterprise-level problems. We’re set up to work as equal partners to our peers in product management and engineering, and we design and deliver a crafted experience to our customers by setting a high bar on ease of use. 

When our customers grow, we grow, too! 

One more thing you should know… 

There’s a lot of research showing how marginalized groups of people may not apply for jobs unless they meet 100% (or more!) of the qualifications. We also know that many UX folks come from backgrounds with different experiences that might not seem “standard”—and that’s okay! We value people who bring unique perspectives and add new knowledge to our team. 

You might not feel like you “check all the boxes” as you read this job post. We get it. And we feel these things ourselves, too. But we hope you’ll apply anyway because we’ll take great care in working with you.
