Nexus Studios is a global creative studio working with award-winning directors across animation, artful live-action and immersive to redefine the boundaries of entertainment. Our work has received accolades from BAFTA, Emmy, Grammy, Academy Awards to name a few. We work with the world’s leading cultural brands and have a deep rooted history in innovation, XR and crafted storytelling.

We are now looking for a Senior Technical Writer to work closely with our Tech Leads to maintain both internal and client facing technical documentation for our frontend and backend systems of a new XR product, built natively with Kotlin. This documentation will need to be maintained and evolve with the product development, where it will be used to onboard both internal and external (client) development teams. The role will likely include initial technical planning and give the opportunity to make suggestions to the technical approaches used as well as provide some hands-on experience.

Requirements

What You'll Do:

• Work with the Tech Leads and Technology Directors to define and then taking ownership of building the overall frontend framework, to support the full app development team from prototype through live operations.
• Own all technical documentation and technical diagrams and organize them.
• Support Tech Lead to approve PR/Merge requests from the team as/when needed.
• Work closely with other technical teams, such as the backend server team who will deliver video and binary content to the app.
• Integrating with emerging spatial SDKs, real-time engines, and partner-based tooling.
• Supporting the Technical Lead and Technology Director with technical documentation.

What You Will Bring:

• Significant experience on delivering both internal and client facing documentation for Kotlin based projects.
• Proven experience creating technical documentation (SDKs, APIs, developer guides) for software engineers.
• Ability to write clear and concise reference materials for frontend, backend, and full-stack teams.
• Experience documenting complex software ecosystems (ideally spatial computing, AR/VR/MR, or game engines).
• Comfortable reading Kotlin code, basic understanding of backend APIs and data models.
• Ability to collaborate closely with engineers and QA to extract accurate technical details.

Preferred Experience:

• Understanding of spatial computing, MR (Mixed Reality) headsets, and 3D graphics concepts.
• Experience with Confluence for documentation.
• Experience working with modern build systems and CI/CD pipelines.
• Prior experience documenting Spatial SDKs, spatial mapping APIs, or XR platforms.
• Experience using tools and AI processes to assist in documentation validation and maintenance.

Benefits

This is a Nexus-led role, embedded in a highly collaborative, partner-facing development environment. You’ll help define not just what we build, but how we build it—shaping the product team structure, delivery approach, and evolution of a platform with global reach. If you’re excited about building what’s next in immersive media, and fan engagement, we’d love to talk.
