We are seeking a detailed and enthusiastic Freelance Senior Technical Writer to join our client's world-renowned music electronics organization. This is a rare opportunity to join a highly sought-after team comprising Industrial Design, CMF, UX, User Research, and Visual Design experts. In this role, you will work cross-functionally with Product Design (PD), Customer Experience (CX), and Engineering to see innovative premium audio products before they come to life. You will play a critical role in ensuring the 'out-of-box' experience for consumers is intuitive, easy, and delightful. This position focuses on creating instructional content and owner's guides for premium hardware products (speakers, earbuds, soundbars). You will own the content strategy and development for materials that physically accompany the product and the detailed online support documentation. While you will collaborate closely with the Mobile App team to understand feature sets, this role is not focused on writing UI copy for the app itself. The ideal candidate is not just a writer, but a subject matter expert who can own their domain. This will be freelance, ad-hoc work, ranging on average from 5-25 hours per month.
