Working Student - Technical Writer (m/f/x)
UP42 was founded in 2019 with a clear purpose: to transform how organizations order, access, and analyze Earth observation data. Our platform brings together the world’s leading geospatial providers, and offers a single touchpoint to access, manage, and process data at scale. From vegetation management and infrastructure monitoring to disaster response, UP42 helps organizations across industries find solutions to complex problems through Earth observation. Our expert support team and detailed documentation guide our users through every step. Since July 2025, UP42 has been a part of Neo Space Group.
As a Technical Writer, you will be part of our Developer Experience and Documentation team. In this role, you will create documentation that promotes self-service among users and collaborate with stakeholders from other teams.
What you will do:
Take over hands-on writing tasks to maintain our technical documentation.
Produce and update documentation using a docs-as-code workflow based on Git and Markdown.
Proactively collaborate with engineering and product teams to gather implementation details.
Here is a good summary of what we are looking for:
Current enrolment in a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree at a German university
Commitment to a working student role for a minimum duration of 12 months
Ability to work up to 20 hours per week during the semester
English proficiency at C1 level or higher with clear writing skills
Practical experience writing non-academic documentation
Proven track record of cross-team collaboration with technical stakeholders
Bonus points if you bring:
Working knowledge or background in geospatial science
Experience with markup languages and version control systems
Experience with Python, Swagger, and Jupyter notebooks
Let us tell you why UP42 is a good choice:
Let's disrupt the industry: You get the chance to shape the state-of-the-art geospatial processing platform and create a completely new planetary perspective.
Let's stay flexible: We practice a hybrid working model - you can choose when to work from the comfort of your home or join your colleagues in our modern office in the heart of Kreuzberg.
Let's win as a team: We're an inspiring international team working in a fun and productive environment.
Let's think outside of the box: There are challenges and enough space for creativity and taking ownership.
Does this sound like a good next step into your geospatial career? If so, we look forward to receiving your application in English.
Our culture is one of belonging, where everyone feels welcome and where differences are celebrated. We seek to recruit the best talent regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socio-economic background and/or belief—and strongly encourage people from underrepresented groups to apply. We also value more than the skills and experiences outlined in this job description. Even if you think you only fill 60% of the requirements for this role - we would still like to consider your application.
