About the Role

Monks is seeking an experienced Senior Technical Writer / Editor to join a regional creative team producing rapid-turn editorial and marketing content. Working in close partnership with client stakeholders and a distributed global team, this role will refine complex technical material into clear, engaging content for consumer-facing audiences who are already comfortable with technology. All editorial and creative deliverables will be produced in English for global audiences.

This role is primarily focused on editing and adapting approved source content rather than writing technical narratives from scratch. The ideal candidate can improve clarity, structure and tone without diluting technical meaning, introducing inaccuracies or oversimplifying the subject matter.

An interest in AI, emerging technology and new approaches to creative production is essential.

In This Role, You Will

Edit and refine technical editorial and marketing content for clarity, accuracy, flow and audience relevance.

Preserve essential technical meaning while making complex information accessible and engaging.

Adapt approved source copy across web, social, video, presentation and other digital formats.

Create copy variants based on platform requirements, audience needs, character limits and established messaging.

Develop and refine headlines, subheads, summaries, captions, calls to action and on-screen copy.

Apply approved copy within design layouts, working closely with designers to balance meaning, hierarchy and available space.

Partner with subject matter experts to clarify technical details and resolve gaps or inconsistencies.

Work with producers to track copy status, approvals, source material and open questions.

Consolidate editorial feedback and recommend resolutions when comments are subjective, conflicting or unclear.

Maintain established terminology, naming conventions, voice and editorial standards.

Conduct thorough copy QA across spelling, grammar, punctuation, factual consistency, links, versioning and platform specifications.

Document approved language, recurring feedback and editorial decisions for future use.

Support clear, documented handoffs when work continues across regions or shifts.

Use approved AI and editorial tools to support research, comparison, versioning and efficiency while maintaining human editorial judgment.

Maintain discretion when working with confidential and highly sensitive information.

Experience You Bring

5+ years of experience in technical editing, technical writing, technology journalism, digital publishing or editorial marketing.

Demonstrated ability to edit complex technology content without losing accuracy or nuance.

Experience writing for technically fluent consumer, professional or business audiences.

Strong understanding of digital editorial structure, information hierarchy and platform-specific copy requirements.

Experience adapting a single source narrative into multiple formats and copy variants.

Exceptional command of written English, including grammar, syntax, tone and editorial style, is required. All copy will be developed and edited in English.

Strong proofreading, fact-checking and self-QA skills.

Ability to work autonomously, manage rapid turnarounds and make sound editorial decisions amid ambiguity.

Confidence collaborating with technical experts, designers, motion artists, producers and senior stakeholders.

Familiarity with collaborative design tools such as Figma is preferred.

Experience collaborating across regions, time zones and shift-based teams.

Ability to work an assigned nontraditional shift and participate in scheduled weekend and holiday rotations.

Interest in AI, emerging technology and production innovation.

Working Model

This is a hybrid, shift-based role supporting a global production model. Working hours will vary by assigned shift and may include early mornings, evenings, overnight coverage or other nontraditional schedules. Participation in a planned weekend and holiday rotation will also be required. Schedules will be established in advance, with some flexibility needed around urgent priorities and cross-regional handoffs.
