Technical Writer

uRun • United States, CA

7d • $130,000 - $190,000

About The Position

uRun is building the inference cloud for interactive AI, the compute layer that makes real-time, stateful inference possible at scale. The company is backed by top-tier investors and founded by Keegan McCallum, who has experience scaling inference infrastructure for demanding generative AI workloads. uRun is an infrastructure company that provides the layer for model labs, builders, and research teams to ship on top of.

Requirements

• 5+ years of technical writing experience, with a portfolio that demonstrates clear, accurate documentation for developer or infrastructure products
• Strong command of API documentation: you have written reference docs, OpenAPI specs, or equivalent and understand what developers actually need from them
• Comfortable reading and writing code: you can work through a code sample, spot an error, and write accurate examples in at least one language (Python preferred)
• Experience owning docs infrastructure: static site generators, docs-as-code workflows, version control, and CI/CD for documentation
• Strong editorial instincts: you write with precision, cut ruthlessly, and know the difference between explaining and obscuring
• Able to operate independently as the first and only technical writer, setting standards without a template to follow
• Comfortable working closely with engineers and translating highly technical concepts for a developer audience

Nice To Haves

• Experience documenting infrastructure, cloud, or developer platform products (compute, networking, storage, or equivalent)
• Familiarity with ML infrastructure concepts: model serving, inference APIs, GPU compute, or distributed systems
• Experience with docs tooling such as Mintlify, Readme, Docusaurus, or similar
• A background that includes developer relations, developer advocacy, or direct experience as a software engineer
• Prior experience as a founding or sole technical writer at an early-stage company

Responsibilities

• Own the full documentation lifecycle end-to-end: plan, write, review, publish, and iterate across API references, quickstarts, integration guides, and conceptual docs
• Embed with engineering to understand the product deeply, translating complex distributed systems and inference infrastructure concepts into clear, accurate developer documentation
• Build and maintain the docs infrastructure: tooling, structure, versioning, and publishing pipeline
• Write and maintain SDK documentation and code samples across multiple languages, ensuring they are accurate, tested, and developer-friendly
• Create onboarding and integration content that helps developers go from zero to production on uRun as fast as possible
• Partner with the GTM and engineering teams to produce technical content that supports developer adoption: tutorials, explainers, changelog entries, and release notes
• Establish and maintain a documentation style guide and content standards that scale as the team grows
