Job Description & How to Apply Below
Help shape the future of digital health.
We're partnering with an innovative medical device company developing cutting-edge software and connected technologies that improve the lives of people living with diabetes. This is an opportunity for a technically minded writer to work directly with software engineers, architects, and product teams while helping build the documentation framework behind next-generation digital health solutions.
Why This Role Stands Out
+ 100% remote position with long-term project stability
+ Work on mobile apps, cloud platforms, APIs, data systems, and software architecture
+ Make a direct impact on products that improve patient health outcomes
+ Collaborate closely with software engineering, product, and R&D leaders
+ Influence documentation standards, best practices, and processes across the organization
+ Exposure to modern development environments including Agile, Jira, Git Hub, system architecture, and digital health technologies
+ Potential for long-term growth and conversion opportunities
What You'll Be Doing
As a key member of the software and R&D organization, you'll translate complex technical concepts into clear, structured documentation that supports both engineering teams and regulated product development.
You'll partner with developers and architects to document:
+ Software requirements and design specifications
+ APIs and backend systems
+ Data platforms and system architectures
+ End-to-end workflows and data flows
+ Regulated documentation supporting software development and quality systems
+ You'll also help improve documentation processes, standards, templates, and best practices across a highly collaborative engineering environment.
What We're Looking For
+ 3+ years of technical writing experience supporting software or highly technical products
+ Experience documenting software requirements, APIs, system architecture, or backend platforms
+ Ability to understand complex technical systems and translate them into user-friendly documentation
+ Experience working directly with engineering teams in Agile environments
+ Familiarity with tools such as Jira and Git Hub
Ideal Background
We're especially interested in candidates who have supported:
+ Medical devices
+ Digital health products
+ Healthcare software
+ Cloud-based platforms
+ Regulated software environments
If you enjoy working alongside engineers, diving into technical architecture, and creating documentation that drives product quality and compliance, this is an opportunity to contribute to meaningful technology while growing your expertise in a fast-moving digital health organization.
