As a Software and Documentation Engineer at DevDocs, you'll build tools, write critical documentation, and improve processes while navigating new technologies and client interactions.
DevDocs is a fully remote company that hires developers to build documentation and docs tooling for clients like Qualcomm, American Express, and C3 AI.
We don’t hire writers, and we don’t just crank out docs: our close-knit team is full of technical experts who can deeply understand a client’s products, consult on their problems, then design tools and systems to automate their docs processes (and write the most important docs).
What you’ll doThis role lives somewhere between engineer, teacher, and toolmaker. You’ll:
- Get dropped into new tech, figure it out fast, and make it make sense.
- Build tools and AI workflows to make every project smoother.
- Write docs that matter and figure out how to systematize them.
- Untangle messy knowledge structures and design something better.
- Ask detailed questions, get to the root of things, and make it simpler.
- Improve DevDocs itself - processes, tooling, weird experiments welcome.
- You pick things up fast and figure stuff out without needing a map.
- You write like you talk: clearly and directly.
- You think like an engineer and enjoy solving puzzles.
- You’ve worked with clients or stakeholders and enjoy being social.
- You’ve built projects for fun - or because something annoyed you enough to fix it.
- Remote. U.S. timezone overlap, but otherwise flexible.
- No grind. 40 hours/week. We actually mean it.
- Real ownership. You’ll ship work and see it used.
- Learning built-in. We carve out time and budget for it.
- Room to grow. Projects shift, ideas evolve, roles expand. If you want to stretch, we’ll make space.

- Consider yourself a full stack developer with experience in Java, TypeScript, and decentralized databases (blockchain).
