Technical Writer Engineering West Yorkshire Some jobs are about paperwork. This one is about precision. About turning complex engineering into clear, usable documentation that keeps critical equipment operating safely in the real world.

That means: Creating technical manuals, service guides, and maintenance documentation Producing training materials and operational support documents Converting CAD drawings, BOMs, and engineering data into clear, structured content Working directly with engineers to verify technical information Managing document control, versioning, and updates Supporting both new product launches and ongoing product improvements Ensuring documentation meets compliance, regulatory, and industry standards This is not a "sit quietly and write" role. You'll need to ask questions, challenge ambiguity, and get close to the engineering. What We're Looking For We're looking for someone with strong technical writing capability and enough engineering understanding to know when something doesn't make sense. You'll likely have: Previous experience as a Technical Writer, Technical Author, or similar Experience within engineering, automotive, manufacturing, or technical product environments Strong understanding of CAD drawings, Bills of Materials, and engineering specifications Excellent written communication and document control skills High attention to detail and strong organisational ability Confidence working cross-functionally with engineering and production teams Strong Microsoft Office skills and experience with technical authoring tools An engineering qualification is helpful.
