An attractive job profile

The job description of a technical writer has many facets. Technical writers provide precise and comprehensible information for the safe and productive use of products. To this end, they develop concepts for the respective information products, define the information requirements of the target group, research necessary product information and ensure that legal and normative requirements are met. They write user-friendly texts and safety instructions, coordinate translations and thus ensure the quality of the documentation. On this basis, technical writers create information products such as operating instructions, online help, product videos, maintenance and service documents, training documents or multimedia product catalogs.

Working with innovative tools

To optimize the editing process, it is necessary to be able to use various software solutions. For example, editing systems are used for creation, linguistic software for quality control and automation software for translation. This information is managed in content management systems. The most common output medium for information products today is still paper or, alternatively, PDF documents. Increasingly, however, information is being created for multimedia applications. Be it operating procedures via app, multilingual instruction videos, repair instructions with augmented reality or training environments with virtual reality.
