- Update internal documentation, runbooks and knowledge base articles.
Required profile
- Experience developing applications with JavaScript and TypeScript.
- Strong debugging, troubleshooting and problem-solving skills, with attention to detail.
- Ability to work independently and own issues through to resolution.
- Excellent written English and the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical users.
