With approximately 16,000 employees we design and manufacture innovative technologies that support electrification, energy efficiency, and advanced automation. Our global reach is matched by a culture that empowers innovation and long-term growth. Guided by our principles We Care, We Succeed With Our Customers, and We Own the Outcome, we work collaboratively, think boldly, and deliver solutions that move industries forward.

Position Summary

We are seeking a Technical Writer to support our Product Development Engineering and Application Engineering teams. This role partners closely with engineering and product management to produce clear, accurate, and customer-facing technical documentation across our portfolio of electrical power, electrical safety, and electronics products. The ideal candidate combines strong technical comprehension with excellent writing skills and a drive to continuously improve how documentation gets created - including adopting new tools and workflows to increase efficiency and consistency.

Key Responsibilities

Develop and maintain datasheets, product manuals, user guides, installation instructions, white papers, and other customer-facing technical content.
Collaborate directly with product development engineers and application engineers to translate technical designs, specifications, and functionality into clear documentation for end users, distributors, and internal stakeholders.
Work with product management to align documentation with product positioning, release timelines, and customer needs.
Interpret engineering drawings, schematics, and test data accurately in written materials.
Maintain document version control, templates, and style consistency across the documentation portfolio.
Support new product introduction (NPI) processes by delivering documentation on schedule alongside engineering milestones.
Identify opportunities to streamline the documentation process - evaluating and implementing new authoring tools, templates, automation, or AI-assisted workflows to reduce cycle time and improve document quality.
Review and edit technical content produced by engineers for clarity, accuracy, and consistency with company style standards.
Manage documentation within a document control system, following established numbering and revision conventions.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Technical Writing, Engineering, Communications, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
3+ years of technical writing experience in an engineering or manufacturing environment.
Demonstrated experience writing documentation for products in at least one of the following domains (required):
- Electrical power systems
- Electrical safety products (e.g., protective relays, monitoring devices)
- Electronics systems
Proven ability to work cross-functionally with engineers and product managers to gather and clarify technical information.
Strong command of technical writing fundamentals: clarity, structure, audience awareness, and consistency.
Self-motivated, with a track record of proactively identifying and implementing process or tooling improvements to increase documentation productivity.
Proficiency with standard documentation and publishing tools (e.g., Microsoft Office/365, Adobe FrameMaker or similar, PDF authoring tools).

Preferred Qualifications

Experience leveraging AI-assisted authoring, content generation, or workflow automation tools (e.g., generative AI writing assistants, Power Automate) to improve documentation throughput.
Prior experience supporting NPI (New Product Introduction) processes in a hardware or embedded systems environment.
