Whether you're launching a product globally, onboarding new hires, translating learning content, or aligning legal teams across regions, Smartcat turns knowledge into action and action into scale.

Over 1,000 companies, including 20% of the Fortune 500, rely on Smartcat to bring their business to the world—instantly, accurately, and in every language. As a Series C company with 130% year-over-year growth, we’re scaling fast and investing in people who want to shape the future of work with us.

Join us in unlocking global potential, one human and agent team at a time.

Why this role exists

As our product organization scales, documentation cannot rely on manual writing alone. Speed, consistency, and accuracy demand an AI-first approach.

We are looking for a Technical Writer who treats documentation as a system, not a set of documents. This role is about designing how product knowledge is captured, generated, validated, and maintained using AI as the primary production engine, with humans setting intent, structure, and quality bars.

You will sit at the center of Product Operations and build the documentation layer that scales with our product, our teams, and our platform.

This is not a traditional writing role. It is a product-facing, AI-powered knowledge orchestration role.

What you will do

What success looks like

Documentation is generated faster than the product changes
Product knowledge stays current without heroic manual effort
AI produces consistent, usable documentation with minimal rework
Product Managers spend less time writing and more time thinking
New hires and cross-functional teams self-serve product knowledge confidently
Documentation scales with the organization without linear headcount growth

What we are looking for

5+ years in Technical Writing, Product Writing, Knowledge Management, or similar roles
Hands-on experience using AI tools to generate, summarize, or structure technical content
Strong understanding of modern product development and platform architectures
Systems thinking. You design workflows, not just documents
Excellent editorial judgment and ability to set and enforce quality standards
Comfort working with incomplete inputs and shaping them into structured systems
Ability to partner deeply with Product, Engineering, and Design

How you work

You think in inputs, outputs, and feedback loops
You design for scale first, polish second
You default to automation, not manual effort
You are opinionated about structure and clarity
You influence through systems and standards, not authority
You are comfortable being the owner of an invisible but critical layer of the product organization

Why joining Smartcat might be your best move so far

Teeming tracks opportunities at over 24,000 AI startups, then works with you to find (and land) the one you'll love.

Design and own an AI-first documentation strategy for the product organization

Define how AI is used to generate, update, and maintain product documentation across its lifecycle

Build and maintain documentation systems where:

Product inputs come from PMs, Engineers, and Designers
AI produces first drafts, summaries, and updates
Humans review, refine, and approve where needed

Partner with Product Managers to structure inputs so AI can reliably generate high-quality documentation

Define prompts, templates, taxonomies, and information architecture that enable consistent AI output

Establish clear quality bars and review workflows for AI-generated content

Act as the editor, curator, and system owner, not the primary author

Oversee documentation across:

Product strategy narratives and overviews
Platform and system documentation
Feature and capability documentation
API and developer documentation in collaboration with Engineering
Product Operations playbooks and internal processes

Continuously improve documentation quality by refining prompts, structures, and workflows

Ensure documentation stays current as the product evolves by leveraging automation, not manual rewrites

Experience with API or developer documentation is a strong plus

Experience building documentation frameworks or knowledge systems is a plus

Fully remote team

Innovating a $100 Billion industry
Smartcat is reshaping the $100B multilingual content industry with an AI-powered platform that makes it easy for companies to create, translate, and localize global content at scale. Our platform enables enterprise teams to move away from slow, traditional outsourcing methods, and achieve fast, high-quality results, at a fraction of the cost.

Join the rocketship to scale-up 10x and beyond together
We are looking for someone to become an integral part of our team and play a crucial role in the most exciting part of our journey: transitioning from a post-Series C startup to a company exceeding $100M in ARR and $1B in valuation. Our journey isn’t for the faint of heart. We are growing at 130% YoY, thanks to our strong product-market fit and high-performing team, and plan to accelerate from here.

Smartcat Culture**: Where Diversity Meets High Performance**

We believe in welcoming everyone and fostering an inclusive environment where team members can be their authentic selves at work.
