## About the role

Our docs get used in a few different ways. Some people land on a page in the middle of a task and just need the answer. Others are working out how to run Kong across a whole company, with real traffic and a lot of teams. The docs also power agent workflows, ours and our customers', like MCP servers and AI assistants. So when a page is wrong, it's wrong everywhere. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- You've worked alongside other technical writers on a docs team, not just with engineers or a manager, and you're comfortable giving and getting reviews
- You've worked as a technical writer at a software company or a startup
- Experience working with AI and AI-native workflows (building skills using MCP servers)
- An understanding of how to test software, including APIs and command line tools, and hands-on experience doing it
- Comfort working in the command line, and solid Git experience
- Experience maintaining, managing, and reviewing docs in a docs-as-code environment
