With 3-5 years of engineering or technical writing experience working with SaaS software products, you know just enough SQL and noSQL, have implemented API and git documentation best practices, have gotten tangled in containerized deployments once or twice, and are familiar with cloud service management products like AWS, GCP, Azure. And we markdown, and hope you do too!\n* Empathetic to developers and their needs.

No problem too tough, no issue too elusive; we are looking for someone who will tackle the sometimes nebulous documentation from engineers and work through it, rather than around it. \n* An egoless, yet expert liaison between Ethyca open-source engineering teams and the developer community. Great writing is everyones responsibility at Ethyca, but sometimes we need a little help (okay, a lot of help!) from experts like you!
