Purpose and Impact:

Are you interested in using your skills to help shape the Cyber, Security, & Intel space? If so, look no further. Amentum is seeking a Senior Technical Writer to join our team of passionate individuals at Fort Meade, MD. In this role you will support challenging, mission-critical projects that make a direct impact on the Nation’s security and intelligence mission.

In support of DISA, Amentum’s Intel and Cyber Division is expanding a proven team of highly skilled engineers and architects to support a program that provides critical IT capabilities to the Department of Defense. This team is committed to engineering, assembling, integrating, deploying, and sustaining an innovative IT enterprise solution.

Our team delivers secure, mission-critical capabilities where system integrity and rapid deployment are paramount. We are seeking a Senior Technical Writer who combines meticulous technical discipline with strategic foresight. In this role, you will lead efforts to establish and maintain robust baselines in a rapidly evolving operational environment. Success requires the ability to navigate complex, unique technical challenges independently while fostering collaborative solutions across integrated teams. To excel, you must possess a proactive learning mindset and the agility to rapidly master and govern the integration of next-generation systems and services.

Work Schedule: 8 Hours per day, Monday thru Friday

Essential Responsibilities:

The duties and responsibilities of the Senior Technical Writer include but are not limited to the following:

The Senior Technical Writer plans, develops, and maintains technical documentation that supports mission systems, analytic tools, and intelligence production workflows. The incumbent turns complex technical and operational information into clear, accurate, and accessible content for analysts, operators, engineers, program managers, and senior leadership. The role also sets documentation standards, leads documentation strategy for major programs, and coordinates across classification domains, so the incumbent must be skilled at handling sensitive information and at working with multiple stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities:

Research, write, and edit technical documents such as system design documents, user guides, standard operating procedures, concept of operations, interface control documents, training materials, and release notes.
Interview subject matter experts, engineers, and analysts to gather technical details, then synthesize them into content tailored to each audience's technical level and mission need.
Produce documentation for software, data platforms, analytic tools, collection and processing systems, and cloud and enterprise IT environments.
Document accreditation and compliance artifacts, such as system security plans and configuration management documentation, in coordination with information assurance staff.
Establish and maintain style guides, templates, and documentation standards consistent with agency, IC, and applicable federal requirements (e.g., ICD 206 sourcing conventions where relevant, plain language guidance, Section 508 accessibility).
Define documentation strategy and lifecycle management for assigned programs, including version control, review cycles, and archival.
Implement and refine docs-as-code or structured authoring workflows where appropriate.
Lead document reviews with technical, security, legal, and program stakeholders, resolving conflicting input and keeping documents accurate through system changes.
Coordinate with classification and security officers to ensure content is properly marked, portion-marked, and handled, and to support derivative classification and sanitization or downgrade of content as needed.
Support the preparation of briefings, white papers, and executive summaries for senior leadership.
Mentor and provide guidance to junior writers and editors.
Perform peer review and quality control on documentation produced by team members and contractors.
Contribute to proposals, program reviews, and agile ceremonies; perform other duties as assigned.

Work Environment, Physical Demands, and Mental Demands:

Employee will work in a SCIF on a daily basis.
Employee may also be required to work in a datacenter environment for specified periods of time.

Minimum Requirements (Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities):

Demonstrated experience writing for complex technical systems in a government, defense, or intelligence environment.
Strong command of grammar, structure, and editing, with a portfolio or work history showing clear, accurate technical content.
Working knowledge of classification marking, handling, and dissemination controls.
Experienced in organizing large documentation sets and managing concurrent assignments, reviews, schedules, and releases.
Ability to quickly learn unfamiliar technologies and ask the right questions of SMEs.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, and the ability to work independently under tight deadlines.
Experience in agile or DevSecOps environments and documenting CI/CD-delivered systems.
Familiarity with structured authoring or docs-as-code tools (e.g., Markdown, DITA, Git, Confluence, Madcap Flare, Adobe FrameMaker).
Experience with RMF/ATO documentation and NIST 800-53 controls.
Experience with Section 508 compliance and graphics or diagram tools (Visio, Adobe Illustrator).
Translating technical complexity for both expert and non-technical audiences
Information architecture and content strategy
Attention to detail and ownership of document accuracy
Collaboration across engineering, analytic, and security communities
Sound judgment in handling sensitive and compartmented information
Leadership by example and the ability to influence without formal authority
Experience working in accredited, access-controlled environments.

Security Clearance Required:

Must have active Top Secret clearance with SCI eligibility

Minimum Education:

Bachelor's degree in English, Technical Communication, Journalism, Computer Science, or a related field, plus at least [8-10] years of relevant technical writing experience. Additional experience may substitute for education or equivalent professional experience (typically 4 additional years in lieu of degree).

Minimum Years of Experience:

Eight+ years of progressive experience in Technical Writing, document creation or service management supporting one or more Intelligence Community agencies or national security organizations.
