About Salesforce

We’re Salesforce, the Customer Company, inspiring the future of business with AI+ Data +CRM. Leading with our core values, we help companies across every industry blaze new trails and connect with customers in a whole new way. And, we empower you to be a Trailblazer, too — driving your performance and career growth, charting new paths, and improving the state of the world. If you believe in business as the greatest platform for change and in companies doing well and doing good – you’ve come to the right place.

MuleSoft is looking for an experienced, talented, and motivated Staff Technical Writer to produce high-quality technical content for developers or DevOps engineers. You know how to work collaboratively with other writers, an editor, Product Management, Engineering, customers, and others to create the technical topics and examples that customers can find on Google.

Phrases such as “topic-based,” “Google-ready,” “developer-focused,” “task-oriented,” and “component documentation” flow naturally whenever you talk about your work. You are unafraid to ask questions because you love to learn about complex technologies. If you are a problem-solver who can deliver quality content in a demanding environment under tight deadlines, then this might be the perfect opportunity to take your career to the next level on a small, agile writing team at a fast-growing company.
