About the Role
We’re looking for a technically curious, developer-focused writer to help bring Mendix’s latest AI innovations to life through clear, practical, and engaging documentation. In this role, you won’t just document features—you’ll work side-by-side with developers and product teams to deeply understand how new capabilities work and help translate them into real-world success for our users.
You’ll focus on AI-related modules, components, and services within Mendix. You can find most of our components in the Mendix marketplace, they are showcased in this app and can be used through Mendix Cloud GenAI Resource Packs. But your impact will go beyond traditional documentation—you’ll help shape how developers discover, understand, and apply new technologies across our platform.
You’ll join a documentation team that’s part of Mendix R&D, reflecting our belief that great docs are critical to great product experiences. We treat documentation as a core part of the development process—not an afterthought.
