This is a high-impact role where you'll translate complex robotic systems into clear, precise, and universally understood content that empowers customers, field technicians, operators, and internal teams to bridge the knowledge gap between us and humanoid robots
Lead the strategy, creation, and ongoing maintenance of comprehensive product documentation for our products including:
Operator and user manuals, installation, setup, and commissioning guides,
Troubleshooting and repair procedures
Safety information, warnings, and compliance documentation
Quick start guides, field service instructions, and deployment handbooks
API references, SDK documentation, and integration guides
Other essential documents
Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams and subject matter experts—mechanical/electrical/robotics engineers, software developers, product managers, safety & compliance specialists, UX designers, and field deployment teams—to gather accurate technical details and understand real-world product usage
Turn highly technical concepts into accessible, accurate, and concise documentation for diverse audiences (end-users, technicians, engineers, and customers)
Establish and enforce documentation standards, style guides, templates, and best practices tailored to robotics products
Standardize content using documentation tools
Assist in creating operator and technician-friendly training content, including step-by-step guides and visuals
Monitor documentation updates, report progress, and optimize content based on feedback
Develop new and/or revise existing content as necessary and on-time, based on the request
