Beschreibung

At JetBrains, code is our passion.

Ever since we started, back in 2000, we have been striving to make the strongest, most effective developer tools on earth.

By automating routine checks and corrections, our tools speed up production, freeing developers to grow, discover, and create.

We are working on creating a new product, Toolbox Enterprise, to help companies manage their IntelliJ-based IDEs for hundreds of developers.

It will distribute selected IDE versions, plugins, and standard configurations across all developer machines. Toolbox Enterprise will also collect metrics and error reports to help companies improve their developer experience and save money.

The product documentation covers multiple areas like a server side with Docker and Docker-Compose, admin web UI, Toolbox App, and an IntelliJ-based IDE experience.

At JetBrains, Technical Writers are part of the product teams.

Our documentation process is very open:

Technical writers communicate directly with the developers, product managers, and QA engineers to get all the required technical information.

Product documentation is written in XML or Markdown using JetBrains' IDEs to suit our needs. All source code is under Git version control.

We are looking for a Technical Writer to join our team and help make Toolbox Enterprise product documentation and new user onboarding as good and simple to understand as can be.
