Work directly with developers, product managers, QA engineers, and SMEs to collect technical information, validate accuracy, and drive documentation reviews through to sign-off
Analyze product functionality and translate it into task-based, user-focused documentation that helps engineers solve real problems
Review and edit documentation for technical accuracy, grammar, terminology consistency, and adherence to Synopsys style guidelines
Manage documentation updates aligned with product release schedules, ensuring content is versioned, tracked, and delivered on time
Create and maintain supporting content such as screenshots, diagrams, workflows, tables, and illustrations.
Identify gaps and inconsistencies in existing documentation and contribute to process improvements, templates, and authoring standards
The Impact You Will Have
Enable customers to adopt and use Synopsys EDA and IP products more effectively through clear, accurate documentation
Reduce support escalations by ensuring engineers can find answers in the docs instead of filing tickets
Improve documentation consistency and reusability across product lines, making updates faster and reducing duplication
Accelerate product launches by delivering documentation that meets release milestones without blocking engineering timelines
Strengthen the quality bar for technical content across the organization by contributing to standards, templates, and peer reviews
Help shape how Synopsys leverages structured authoring and emerging tools like AI to scale documentation efforts
Build documentation that holds up under real-world use, not just passes internal review
What You'll Need
2 to 4 years of professional experience in technical writing, ideally for software or technology products
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or equivalent discipline
Hands-on experience with DITA XML concepts including topics, maps, content reuse, conditional content, and cross-references
Proficiency in Adobe FrameMaker or Oxygen XML for structured authoring and publishing
Strong command of technical communication fundamentals like task-based writing, information architecture, and content structuring
Familiarity with version control systems such as Git or Perforce for managing documentation source files
Experience with MS Visio for creating technical diagrams and process flows is a plus, as is exposure to AI tools for content drafting, summarization, or quality improvement
Who You Are
You can sit in a design review with engineers, absorb the technical details, and walk out with a plan for how to document it clearly for three different user personas
You manage multiple documentation projects and deadlines without missing release dates
You push back when technical information is incomplete or when a proposed change will confuse users, and you do it in a way that keeps the collaboration moving
You work independently across time zones and distributed teams, but you also know when to pull people into a review or escalate a blocker
You care about the details, catching terminology inconsistencies, broken links, and formatting issues that others miss, but you also ship on time
You are curious about new tools and workflows, whether that means exploring AI-assisted authoring, automation scripts, or better ways to structure content for reuse
