  • Ensure all deliverables are accurate, professional, and aligned with organizational and client standards.
  • Manage multiple editing and writing projects under tight deadlines while maintaining quality and accuracy.
  • Maintain version control and documentation workflows using collaborative editing and document management tools.
  • Apply plain language principles and follow federal writing guidelines when appropriate.

General Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in English, Communications, Technical Writing, or a related field. Additional years of relevant experience may be considered in lieu of a degree.
  • 3+ years of experience writing or editing technical content, preferably in support of government, defense, or intelligence programs.
  • Strong command of grammar, usage, and editing conventions, with an eye for detail.
  • Experience working with style guides (e.g., Chicago Manual of Style, APA, or in-house templates).
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite and other relevant writing/editing tools (e.g., Adobe Acrobat, SharePoint, LaTeX, or XML-based editors).
  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
  • Active security clearance or the ability to obtain one may be required depending on the position.
