No software application is used by more people than the web browser. There are dozens of browsers available today, but all of them are based on the same basic architecture introduced nearly two decades ago. Amazon Web Services (AWS) has formed a team to take a radically different approach to this application that is so central to the daily life of billions of customers. With our browser, Amazon Silk, we are leveraging the power of cloud computing to fundamentally change the way people experience the web.
As a Technical Writer in Amazon Web Services (AWS) focused on the Silk browser, you will have the exciting opportunity to work with a stellar technical team to produce product documentation, best practices guidelines, and technical blog content, in a cross-functional, distributed environment.

Amazon.com is deeply committed to being a leader in the browser space, and one of the key measures of success is to support the vibrant developer and site owner community with whom we share common customers. To enable this, the technical publications team plays a vital role in helping web developers to make the most out of the Silk platform, ensuring that the functional capabilities and technical details of Silk are well documented and clearly described.
The ideal candidates have both a technical background that enables them to easily interact with software developers and a demonstrated ability to deliver high-quality technical publications.
Key Responsibilities:
- Drive the development and produce documentation for Amazon Silk
- Independently follow designs and standards to develop and deliver documentation
- Write or manipulate code samples to support documentation
- Conduct peer edits for grammar, style, and form
- Help define writing projects
- Help assess market feedback on adoption of our services
