Charleston, SC (On/Off-Site)
Responsibilities
Write, edit, and maintain a variety of technical documentation, including:
User manuals
System administration guides
API documentation
Software development guides
Installation guides

Security documentation
Compliance documentation (e.g., FedRAMP, DoD security standards)
Ensure all documentation is accurate, clear, concise, and consistent with established style guides.
Update documentation to reflect changes in software, hardware, or processes.
Work with subject matter experts (SMEs) to gather information and validate documentation.
Manage the entire documentation lifecycle, from planning and creation to review, approval, and publication.
Docs-as-Code Implementation & Management:
Version Control: Use Git (or other version control systems like Mercurial) to manage documentation source code (typically Markdown, reStructuredText, or AsciiDoc).
Branching & Merging: Implement branching strategies for documentation development (e.g., feature branches, release branches). Manage merge requests/pull requests.
Build Automation: Set up and maintain build pipelines (using tools like Make, Ant, Maven, Gradle, or scripting languages) to automatically generate documentation outputs (HTML, PDF, etc.) from the source code.
Static Site Generators: Utilize static site generators (e.g., Jekyll, Hugo, Sphinx, MkDocs) to create websites from documentation source files. Configure and customize the site generators to meet specific documentation needs.
Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD): Integrate documentation builds and deployments into CI/CD pipelines to automate the process of publishing updates.
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for Documentation: Manage the infrastructure required for documentation (e.g., servers, storage) using IaC tools like Terraform or Ansible.
Contribute to Tooling: If the organization is building its own documentation tools or extending existing ones, contribute to the development and maintenance of those tools.
Security & Compliance (DoD Specific):
Adhere to all applicable DoD security regulations, policies, and procedures related to documentation, including:
Proper handling and marking of classified information.
Data security and access control.
Compliance with DoD cybersecurity standards (e.g., NIST 800-53).
Ensure that documentation accurately reflects security configurations and procedures.
Contribute to the development of security documentation, such as security plans, incident response plans, and vulnerability assessments.
Participate in security audits and inspections.
Be aware of data spillage prevention techniques when handling documentation.
