A globally respected financial services firm is hiring a UX Documentation Writer to bring clarity, structure, and strategy to their internal design system site.

• Build and maintain a smart content strategy for internal UX documentation
• Write stakeholder-friendly content that explains design systems, workflows, and impact
• Create taxonomy and microcopy for anatomy pages (components, patterns, tokens, etc.)
• Draft clear guidance for contributing code/design, using tokens, and more
• Help define voice, tone, and structure for a cohesive internal resource

UX Documentation Writer / Content Strategist - What you bring:

• 5+ years in UX writing, content strategy, or design
• Proven ability to craft documentation with clarity, purpose, and structure
• Deep familiarity with design systems (atomic design, tokens, components—you get it)
• Experience developing content strategies and scalable documentation frameworks
• Bonus if you’ve worked in financial services or other regulated industries
