Documentation Engineer

The Role

Modal considers high-quality documentation to be essential for developer experience, and we see docs becoming even more important as agents increasingly deploy and operate Modal Apps. We are looking for a content-minded engineer who will partner with our product teams to curate Modal’s technical documentation and maintain a high quality bar across multiple dimensions.

What You'll Work On

• Think holistically about content architecture and how the docs should evolve as Modal introduces new products and features
• Innovate on novel documentation formats and delivery channels to optimize agent productivity, in collaboration with our Agent DX research team
• Develop content standards, style guides, and automated enforcement mechanisms to ensure consistent style and high quality
• Build and maintain automated pipelines that enforce the correctness of code examples and prose descriptions
• Collaborate with engineers across the company to author documentation that is clear, consistent, and correct

You May Be a Fit If

• You have 3+ years of experience in an engineering, product, or developer relations role, ideally in the devtools or infrastructure space
• You’ve authored or edited high-quality technical content for developers
• You’re knowledgeable about agentic engineering workflows and best practices
• You’re comfortable with modern software development practices (version control, CI/CD, testing)
