Contract: 6–12 months (with potential for extension)
Are you an experienced Technical Writer or Developer with a passion for documentation and reverse engineering? Do you have a knack for untangling complex systems and making them understandable? If so, we have the perfect opportunity for you.
About the Role
We are working with a pioneering Software House that provides financial banking solutions for small- to medium-sized banks. Their core system, originally built in the 1970s, has evolved significantly over the last 50 years. However, this evolution has left the technical documentation in dire need of modernization and clarity.
As a Technical Documentation Writer, you will:
Re-write, organize, and streamline documentation for the entire system.
Work closely with developers to understand the nuances of an IBMi Series, RPG-based system
Document "switches" within the software, ensuring clarity on how client-specific configurations impact functionality.
Identify and address gaps in existing documentation to reduce errors and improve maintainability.
Support developers by creating clear, user-friendly references that assist with adding new features and mitigating potential system failures.
What We’re Looking For
We’re seeking a professional who thrives in complexity and brings clarity to chaos. The ideal candidate will have:
Essential: Banking industry experience, with familiarity in financial systems or software.
Highly Desirable: Experience working with IBMi Series and/or RPG systems
Strong analytical skills to reverse-engineer undocumented systems.
Exceptional communication and technical writing skills.
A collaborative mindset to engage with developers, engineers, and stakeholders.
This role would suit either:
A seasoned Technical Writer with a background in legacy systems.
A Developer experienced in IBMi Series or RPG who enjoys documentation and creating structure.
What’s in It for You?
Competitive day rate contract position.
Flexible working arrangements, including remote options.
The chance to make a significant impact on a critical banking platform.
Work with a team of talented developers solving real-world challenges for financial institutions.
How to Apply
If you’re ready to tackle a challenging but rewarding project and have the skills to bring clarity to decades of complex systems, we want to hear from you.
