Technical Writer at Oso

Over the last 15 years, companies like AWS, Stripe, and Twilio have helped developers offload anything not core to their apps so they can focus on what matters to their users. Despite a lot of progress in developer tooling, most developers still roll their own authorization.

You might start with something quick 'n dirty – some IF statements and roles in a database, which may not be pretty but gets the job done...until you need to add more features, and more features. And inevitably every team band-aids onto this system until they do a big refactor. This is a waste of their time.

At Oso, we're building the first batteries-included framework for authorization so developers don't have to roll it on their own anymore. We're building slick APIs so they can get started quickly, and a fully-fledged policy language under the hood so they can customize their system however they need.

We are out to build a big, vibrant community of open-source users, and we need to be proactive to achieve that goal. To that end, we are hiring our a technical writer to help us create more articles, blog posts and documentation for our user community. This person will report to the cofounder/CTO and work closely with him, the cofounder/CEO, and the rest of the engineering team.

The team members who join now will not only have a disproportionately large impact on the product and the community, but also on the culture and future of the company.
