Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Identity Digital Inc. is building DNS-native identity infrastructure for AI agents and other non-human identities. The Sr. Technical Writer will own the developer-facing documentation for DNSid, translating complex protocols into clear documentation while collaborating closely with the engineering team.
Responsibilities
- Write and maintain the complete API reference for the TypeScript, Python, and Go SDKs: method signatures, parameters, error codes, and annotated code examples
- Author conceptual guides that explain the DNSid trust model, the agent lifecycle, the DNS record schema, and the verification flow for developers from AI, platform-engineering, and identity backgrounds
- Produce integration tutorials for each major framework, such as LangChain, CrewAI, the Microsoft Agent Framework, LlamaIndex, and the OpenAI Agents SDK, plus MCP servers, A2A, and edge runtimes, with working code samples validated against the current SDK
- Own the DNSid developer portal end to end: information architecture, navigation, search, and the new-developer journey from first landing to a first successful agent registration
- Structure and publish documentation to be AI-consumable: well-formed llms.txt, machine-readable API references, and content that surfaces accurately through AI coding assistants like Codex, Claude, and Cursor, since many developers meet DNSid through these tools before they ever open the portal
- Help write the technical standards behind DNSid, working from the IETF draft and engineering notes
- Maintain the changelog and release notes for each SDK release, turning engineering diffs into clear, developer-facing impact statements
- Document features before they ship by joining design reviews, reading PRs, and asking the questions that surface gaps early
- Work with Developer Advocates so tutorials and guides reflect what developers actually find confusing, based on community feedback and support volume
- Set the documentation style guidelines, templates, and review process, and keep them working as the integration surface grows
- Keep every documentation code example validated in CI against the current TypeScript, Python, and Go SDKs, partnering with engineering on the setup, so examples never silently go stale as the APIs change
- Version documentation clearly across spec drafts and SDK releases, and audit it on a regular cadence for accuracy against the current standard and SDKs
- Actively models and promotes Identity Digital’s core values through day-to-day interactions, behaviors, and decision-making
- Other duties as assigned
Skills
- 5+ years of technical writing at a developer platform, API-first company, or standards-focused organization
- Bachelor's degree in a relevant field or equivalent experience
- Able to read IETF RFCs and translate the specification into accurate, developer-friendly prose without needing an engineer to explain what the spec says
- Experience writing API reference documentation for at least two programming languages; familiarity with TypeScript, Python, or Go is a strong advantage
- A portfolio with at least one large-scale developer-documentation project: an SDK, a platform API, a protocol implementation guide, or equivalent
- Able to write working, executable code samples in at least one of TypeScript, Python, or Go
- Understanding of DNS fundamentals (TXT records, domain names, zone files, TTLs) and HTTP identity protocols (OAuth 2.0, OIDC) deep enough to write accurately about DNSid's anchoring model without engineering review for every sentence
- Experience owning a developer portal or documentation site, including its information-architecture and toolchain choices (Docusaurus, Mintlify, Read the Docs, or comparable)
- Strong instincts for information hierarchy: the writer knows when something belongs in a reference page versus a conceptual guide versus a tutorial, and structures content so developers find the right answer at the right moment
- Experience with docs-as-code workflows: Git, pull-request review for documentation, CI checks on code samples, and versioned docs tied to SDK releases
- Familiarity with AI-consumable documentation patterns: llms.txt, structured API references, and formats that surface accurately through AI coding assistants and retrieval-based tools
- Experience writing changelogs and release notes that communicate developer impact rather than a list of commits
- Ability to travel as needed
- Ability to work across time zones as part of a global organization as needed
- Prior experience documenting an IETF draft standard, W3C specification, or comparable protocol before it became a final standard
- Familiarity with the AI agent framework ecosystem (LangChain, CrewAI, the Microsoft Agent Framework, or comparable) deep enough to judge whether integration tutorials reflect real developer workflows
- Experience with identity and authentication documentation: OAuth 2.0 flows, OIDC discovery, SPIFFE/SPIRE, or verifiable credentials
- A background contributing to formal standards documents or public registries (for example IETF informational documents or IANA registry submissions)
- Experience building or significantly shaping a documentation style guide adopted across a multi-team engineering organization
