Assess the need for, plan, and deliver a range of documentation for Salesforce developers, including API content, reference guides, conceptual content, release notes, and how-to/task-based content.
Collaborate with other writers on the team to help scope and create developer documentation for the features they cover.
Learn and apply style, language, and structure standards for various developer deliverables.

10+ years of experience creating technical, developer-focused or admin-focused content
Familiarity with XML and DITA
Experience with source control software
Strong understanding of software development concepts
Exceptional writing and editing skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts in a clear and concise manner.
Proven ability to conduct in-depth research, gather information from technical sources, and synthesize it into understandable content.
Demonstrated experience working collaboratively with cross-functional teams, including developers, product managers, and subject matter experts.
Ability to work in a fast-paced environment, adapt to changing priorities, and deliver high-quality content within tight deadlines.
Meticulous attention to detail to ensure accuracy and consistency in all technical content.
Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to effectively communicate complex concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Desired Experience/Skills:

Experience with CRM applications (Salesforce familiarity a plus)
Experience with Salesforce-specific technologies (Apex, Lightning Web Components, etc.)
Ability to read, understand, and create short code samples in a variety of programming languages
