Who You'll Work For

In most content writing positions, writers are dropped in at the end of the product lifecycle to document what developers have produced. We know that text is central to how users interact with software and that effective communication needs to be built in from the beginning. As a writer and researcher for Arista’s CloudVision networking software, you’ll participate actively in product development–working alongside developers, designers, and field engineers to deliver features that prioritize the user experience. As a result, there’s ample opportunity to grow in this role and make it your own. You’ll gain a broad understanding of CloudVision and related Arista products, develop areas of expertise, identify ways in which content can deliver real impact, craft proposals, and oversee implementation of new features and internal tools.

What You'll Do

In this dynamic role, you’ll:

  • Create, revise, and audit text on the CloudVision user interface
  • Write, revise, and research Help Center articles on product features and workflows
  • Contribute to the CloudVision content style guide
  • Interview engineers on product features and offer feedback
  • Collaborate with and support the design team
  • Learn and research computer networking in detail - no previous knowledge is required!
  • Continually improve and build on your expanding skillset
  • Help spearhead the direction we take with content writing
  • Use Git, HTML, and CSS to write directly in our code repositories

What You’ll Need

Great content is produced only with a deep understanding of the topic, which means that beyond being a stellar writer you’ll have a passion for learning and acquiring new knowledge. You’ll also have the confidence to ask questions, to really probe at matters, and to continually step outside your comfort zone. The ability to analyse and breakdown complex systems is a core skill, as is the creativity and versatility needed to work through problems and see better solutions.

If this sounds like you, and you meet the below requirements, we’d love to hear from you!

  • A postgraduate degree (MA, PhD, or other humanities-related degree)
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently
  • Proven desire to learn new knowledge and acquire new skill sets
  • A strong analytical and inquisitive mindset
  • Teamwork and collaboration skills
  • Ability to give and receive constructive feedback

We’re open to different experience levels, but this is a writing position and it is essential to have a well-crafted CV as part of your application. Be sure to demonstrate your ability to write and research and your capacity and desire to learn. It isn’t necessary to have any knowledge of networking or the technical skills (Git, HTML, and CSS), because we provide thorough and effective training.

Benefits

We look after our employees and alongside a standout working culture you’ll receive:

  • A competitive salary ​​
  • A competitive bonus structure
  • Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)
  • Employee Share Purchase Plan (ESPP)
  • Choose your own equipment
  • Health insurance
  • Employer pension contributions
  • Bike-to-Work scheme
  • Choose where you work best: home, office, or a mix of both
