Job Description

We are seeking a Technical Writer for a 6–9 month contract engagement to support a growing organization in the data, analytics, and risk management space within the healthcare and insurance ecosystem. This role will focus on translating strategy and technical concepts into clear, structured business documentation and helping bring consistency to documentation practices.
The ideal candidate is a plug‑and‑play technical writer who can step in quickly, assess existing documentation, and help establish common definitions, standards, and processes. Much of the existing content lives within tools such as Confluence, and this person will help organize, refine, and formalize that content.

Key Responsibilities

Translate business strategy and technical concepts into clear, concise, and well‑structured documentation
Partner with business, product, and technical stakeholders to gather requirements and define documentation needs
Establish and standardize common definitions, terminology, and document structures across teams
Review, clean up, and formalize existing documentation, including content currently housed in Confluence
Create and maintain technical and business documentation such as:

Process documentation
Technical overviews and system documentation
Requirements and workflow documentation
Internal knowledge base and SOPs


Help improve document management practices, including organization, versioning, and accessibility
Work independently to identify gaps in existing documentation and proactively address them
Ensure documentation is accurate, up to date, and aligned with business needs

We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters. Qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment regardless of their race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, ancestry, genetic factors, age, disability, protected veteran status, military or uniformed service member status, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Ability to quickly ramp up in a new environment and work in a “plug‑and‑play” capacity
Comfortable working cross‑functionally with technical, product, and business stakeholders
