About the Job

Requirements

  • Experience as a technical writer producing documentation in a fast-paced, highly technical environment.
  • Ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly and accurately to diverse audiences.
  • Familiarity with software development concepts and comfort reading code such as Python or C++.
  • Experience documenting complex software systems, including APIs, SDKs, and software architecture, and shipping high-quality documentation at scale.
  • Experience creating deployment guides, operational procedures, maintenance manuals, or assembly documentation for hardware or robotic systems.
  • Familiarity with modern documentation toolchains and workflows such as Markdown, Git-based documentation, static site generators, and version control best practices.
  • Ability to understand the full flow of data and control from a robot's sensors and models to an operator's screen and reflect that understanding in documentation.
  • Experience with tools such as Jira, Confluence, and Google Workspace for tracking, organizing, and publishing documentation.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and maintain comprehensive documentation for robotic intelligence software, including architecture overviews, APIs, SDKs, and codebases, for internal engineering teams and external developers and partners.
  • Author deployment, configuration, maintenance, and troubleshooting documentation to enable operators and customers to run and manage robot fleets in production environments.
  • Collaborate with robotics researchers, machine learning engineers, software architects, and infrastructure teams to gather information, understand technical concepts, and accurately reflect product functionality and design.
  • Own the documentation lifecycle from planning and drafting through review, publication, and ongoing updates, keeping materials current, accurate, and accessible as products evolve.
  • Establish and champion documentation best practices, style guidelines, and tooling; improve processes and content quality; and conduct peer reviews of documentation produced across teams.
  • Maintain consistency in terminology, style, and tone across documentation, tailoring content for expert developers and non-technical field operators.

Desired Qualifications

  • Prior experience in robotics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, or a related high-tech industry.

About the Company

Skild AI

General-purpose robotic AI brain via API

Skild AI creates a general-purpose artificial intelligence brain for robots. It provides a prefabricated AI model that can be integrated into various general-purpose robots, delivered via an API, to enable high-level decision-making without building custom software from scratch. The product works as a ready-made AI brain embedded in a robotic platform (starting with a mobile manipulator) and exposed through an API so developers and manufacturers can add human-like planning and control capabilities to their robots. This solution differentiates itself by offering a reusable, domain-agnostic AI core for multiple robotics systems rather than bespoke software for each robot, helping to lower development costs and accelerate deployment. Skild AI’s goal is to make robotics development more accessible by supplying the AI brain as a core component to robotics manufacturers and developers who want to build advanced robotic applications quickly and at scale.
