• Perform detailed proofreading to identify and correct grammar, formatting, and content inconsistencies
• Support the maintenance and improvement of documentation templates to ensure usability and consistency across teams
• Work closely with technical writers, product managers, and engineers to refine content and ensure alignment
• Provide constructive feedback to writers to improve overall documentation quality over time
• Ensure all content meets internal standards, security protocols, and approval requirements

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in English, Journalism, Communications, or a related field
• 2+ years of experience in copy editing, technical editing, or documentation review within software, IT, or media technology environments
• Familiarity with video editing or post-production workflows (e.g. color grading, VFX, media pipelines) is highly preferred
• Experience with documentation tools and workflows such as Markdown, track changes, and content management systems

• Highly meticulous with a strong sense of ownership over quality
• Able to think from an end-user perspective and ensure content is practical and easy to follow
