The Opportunity: Technical Content Writer Backend

We are seeking a part-time, contract Technical Content Writer Backend to focus on backend engineering topics for our blog. This role involves producing 1 to 2 long-form ghostwritten articles per month, targeted at senior technical audiences. Articles must be SEO-optimized without being generic or promotional.

You will research complex backend concepts, validate claims, and translate engineering realities into clear, structured articles with practical examples. The scope broadly covers backend topics such as APIs, services, data stores, performance, reliability, security basics, and production operations.

What You'll Do:

• Write 2–3 backend-focused long-form blog articles per month, typically 1,500–2,500 words unless otherwise specified.
• Convert complex backend topics into practical, readable guidance with clear structure, examples, and trade-offs.
• Ensure technical correctness by validating terminology, architecture claims, performance/security statements, and gotchas.
• Incorporate SEO fundamentals naturally, including search intent alignment, headings, internal linking suggestions, and meta title/description suggestions if requested.
• Revise drafts based on editorial feedback while preserving accuracy and clarity.

What We Are Looking For:

• Proven experience writing long-form technical content for engineering audiences (blog/editorial, not brand copy).
• Backend technical fluency from hands-on engineering experience.
• Ability to independently research, sanity-check, and cite sources while avoiding unverified claims.
• Clear, direct and advanced English proficiency suitable for a professional engineering blog.

Must-Haves:

• Proven ability to write long-form backend engineering content for senior technical audiences. A portfolio is required.
• Demonstrated senior-level thinking: ability to explain trade-offs, constraints, and failure modes, not just definitions.
• Deep expertise in 2–3 backend domains such as API design, distributed systems, databases/data modeling, performance/reliability, observability, or messaging/queues.
• Ability to research efficiently and maintain technical accuracy with no unsupported claims or invented metrics.

Join a global team where your unique talents can truly thrive and make a significant impact!
