About This Opportunity

We are representing a confidential cybersecurity organization seeking a Principal Technical Writer based in Hungary. Our client is a leader in secure access solutions, trusted by businesses and millions of users worldwide. This is a remote-first opportunity where you'll shape content strategy across the entire digital support ecosystem.

In this principal-level role, you'll lead how customers understand and succeed with complex security products. You'll own the full lifecycle of digital self-serve content—from support articles and technical documentation to in-product help, chatbot flows, and support videos—operating at the intersection of content strategy, UX, and product.

Responsibilities

  • Produce clear, accurate, and timely online support content in English, delivering personalized in-product experiences tailored to the customer's role, journey, and product
  • Define and evolve a documentation strategy across product lines, aligning support content with business goals and designing scalable frameworks for content delivery
  • Use analytics and cross-functional partnerships to prioritize, track, and measure content improvements across the support center
  • Drive a frictionless handoff between online and live support through strategic metadata management and optimized content channeling
  • Collaborate with content strategists and writing teams to develop shared resources, including style guides, process documentation, and UI messaging (error messages, inline help, and tooltips)
  • Leverage search technology expertise to improve content findability—including metadata strategy, keyword optimization, and search platform configuration
  • Use AI tools to identify content gaps, refine drafts, and scale quality improvements across the content library
  • Support global expansion through translations coordination and create interactive customer experiences through support chatbot programs
  • Partner with engineering and product teams to track product changes, and with UX to ensure customer-facing language accuracy

What We're Looking For

Required qualifications:

  • Proven experience in DITA XML authoring, including fluency in the DITA authoring language and associated toolsets
  • Demonstrated ability to define and execute documentation strategy across multiple product lines, aligning content with business and customer goals
  • Strong understanding of search technologies—including indexing, ranking signals, metadata structures, and taxonomy design—with proven ability to fine-tune search configurations to optimize content findability
  • Fluency in AI tools for content work, including using AI to identify performance gaps, generate and refine drafts, and accelerate quality improvements at scale
  • Proven experience with content delivery tools, systems, and content components across backend and frontend environments, including identity services, developer content, third-party integrations, and APIs
  • Recognized within cross-functional teams as a trusted editorial partner who brings clarity to complex technical topics and raises content quality across the organization
  • Thrives in an Agile environment, managing competing priorities and working independently in a fast-paced, distributed team

Preferred qualifications:

  • Familiarity with localization processes and translations coordination
  • Experience with chatbot platforms or interactive content delivery
  • Savviness with XML/HTML and experience working across a variety of CMS and publishing platforms
