Over 100,000 businesses and millions of people use 1Password to protect their most important information, and we believe those people – and the companies they work for – shouldn’t have to choose between security and productivity. We see security as a human challenge, rather than a technological one. It’s hard work, but our mission has always been to ease the tension between security and convenience and help people navigate the digital world without fear or friction. Human-centric security is part of our DNA, but human-centricity is also the backbone of our culture. We encourage big ideas and new ways of working that help make the online world safer for everyone.

We are looking for an expert technical writer and strong people leader to power the next phase of growth at 1Password. As the Technical Writing Manager, you will lead a technical writing team that is passionate about explaining complex concepts simply for our millions of users. We follow a Git-based, docs-as-code workflow. A successful leader in this role can be a thought partner across 1Password, inspire and grow the current 5-person team, and can bring a vision to life.

You will directly chart our next phase of how we educate users while continuing to develop into a strong communications leader. We’re growing, and we are looking for someone passionate about joining a dynamic, global team of security, product, and content writers that value you for you.
