About the job
The primary goal of a Documentation Engineer is to create clear, accurate, and developer-friendly documentation that enables users to understand, adopt, and effectively integrate Tether’s products and open-source technologies. This involves transforming complex technical systems into accessible guides, tutorials, references, and examples that reduce friction, accelerate onboarding, and improve overall developer experience (DX).
A Documentation Engineer ensures that every product, SDK, module, and application is fully and coherently documented, kept up to date with rapid development cycles, and presented in a way that supports both internal teams and the global developer community.
Responsibilities
Write, maintain, and continuously improve documentation across the entire product ecosystem — including SDKs, APIs, open-source libraries, web, mobile and desktop apps, and platform features.
Ensure clarity, accuracy, and usability of all documentation, adapting tone and depth according to the target audience (developers, end users, or internal teams).
Collaborate closely with engineers, product managers, and designers to extract technical and functional information, turning it into high-quality developer guides, user manuals, and release notes.
Proactively update documentation to match product iterations, new features, and changes introduced by the development team, keeping all materials in sync with releases.
Develop and maintain tutorials, quick starts, and onboarding flows that guide both developers and end users through the setup and use of apps and platform features.
Create and validate example applications, demos, and code snippets that illustrate practical implementations and common usage patterns.
Adopt and contribute to “docs-as-code” workflows, maintaining documentation within repositories, participating in PR reviews, and integrating with CI/CD pipelines.
Apply and uphold documentation standards and style guides, ensuring a consistent voice and structure across apps, products, and open-source components.
Collect and analyze feedback from developers, customers, and community channels to identify pain points and continuously improve the documentation experience.
Perform hands-on validation of procedures and configurations described in the docs, ensuring that every instruction can be successfully followed.
Work with the Documentation Lead to improve tooling, automation, and versioning for documentation assets across repositories and product lines.
Participate in regular documentation audits, removing deprecated content and restructuring materials to align with evolving product architecture.
Support product launches and releases by ensuring that new features, APIs, and UX changes are fully documented and easy to discover.
Contribute to internal knowledge sharing and onboarding materials, helping teams adopt documentation workflows and maintain content quality across departments.
Monitor documentation performance and engagement using analytics and feedback tools to drive data-informed improvements.
Job requirements
3+ years of experience in technical writing, software documentation, or developer education for SDKs, APIs, libraries, apps, or products.
2+ years of hands-on experience with Node.js developing clean, efficient, and maintainable code.
Strong understanding of JavaScript/TypeScript and familiarity with modern development workflows, build systems, and package management (npm/yarn).
Understanding of self-custodial wallet fundamentals, including private keys, seed phrases, signing flows, and secure key management.
Hands-on familiarity with major blockchain ecosystems (Bitcoin, Ethereum/EVM, Tron), including how transactions, fees, and address models work.
Ability to document multi-chain and DeFi workflows such as signing, swapping, bridging, and token interactions (ERC-20/TRC-20).
Proven ability to write clear, accurate, and well-structured documentation for both technical and non-technical audiences.
Experience contributing to or maintaining documentation using docs-as-code practices, including Git/GitHub, Markdown/MDX, and pull request reviews.
Familiarity with at least one documentation framework (e.g. Docusaurus, Mintlify, Astro Docs, MkDocs, etc).
Experience documenting applications, user-facing features, and developer-facing APIs or SDKs, ensuring alignment between product and engineering documentation.
Ability to read and understand source code across multiple languages to verify accuracy and provide meaningful examples.
Excellent written and verbal English communication skills, with attention to structure, tone, and developer-friendly language.
Strong sense of ownership, consistency, and attention to detail, ensuring clarity and coherence across multiple repositories and projects.
Comfortable working in a remote, globally distributed team, using asynchronous tools and documentation-driven communication.
Ability to use visual aids, diagrams, or interactive examples to simplify complex technical topics.
Understanding of API documentation tools (e.g., OpenAPI/Swagger, Postman, or custom reference generators).
Passion for developer experience (DX), open-source ecosystems, and continuous improvement.
Proven experience collaborating in fast-pace environments, adapting to changing priorities and technologies.
