    Technical Publications Specialist

    We are seeking a Senior Technical Publications Specialist to support the creation, maintenance, and modernization of technical documentation for complex engineering products. This role will play a key part in updating and managing a large library of legacy documentation created in Adobe FrameMaker, while supporting our transition to a Component Content Management System (CCMS), specifically Quanos Schema ST4. Also supporting implementation of AI features in user manuals and technical documentation.

    Key Responsibilities:

    • Modify, update, and maintain existing documentation created in Adobe FrameMaker (unstructured)
    • Ensure accuracy, clarity, and consistency across product manuals and technical documents
    • Support migration of legacy content into Schema ST4 and assist in adopting structured authoring practices
    • Collaborate with engineering, product, and service teams to gather and validate technical information
    • Apply content reuse strategies and improve documentation efficiency during CCMS (component content management system) transition
    • Maintain version control and documentation standards across multiple product lines
    • Evaluate and recommend tools for the technical publications department

    This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys working with both legacy documentation systems and modern content management tools, and who wants to contribute to the evolution of technical publications in a high-tech manufacturing environment.
