Senior Technical Proposal Writer-DoD

At Scale, we believe that AI will dramatically improve the world, and our mission is to accelerate the development of AI.

Scale is a rapidly growing, venture-backed series-E startup that is changing the way organizations around the world build AI applications.

Senior Technical Writers are expected to become intimately familiar with Scale's product suite, use cases, ideal customer profile, and technical architecture.

• Meet with subject matter experts (SMEs) to ensure specialized topics are appropriately addressed
• Coordinate and review/edit proposal input from a variety of stakeholders, typically involving contributions from sales, product teams, finance, commercial, and legal
