About the role
We’re looking for a Technical Content Writer to contribute long-form articles, tutorials, and deep-dives to the Astro Rocket blog. You know how to explain technical concepts clearly without dumbing them down, and your writing feels like a human wrote it — not a content factory.
This is a freelance, per-article engagement. We’re building a roster of reliable contributors who understand the web development space and can write from genuine experience.
What you’ll be writing
- Practical Astro tutorials (content collections, routing, integrations)
- Web performance guides and case studies
- TypeScript and Tailwind CSS tips and patterns
- Opinion pieces on the state of the modern web stack
- Comparisons of tools, frameworks, and approaches
What we’re looking for
- Strong technical writing portfolio — ideally covering web development topics
- Hands-on experience with Astro, TypeScript, or modern frontend tooling
- Ability to explain complex ideas clearly and concisely
- Markdown fluency — you’re comfortable writing in MDX
- A writing voice that’s direct, human, and opinionated (in a good way)
Nice to have
- Experience writing for developer audiences (Dev.to, CSS-Tricks, Smashing Magazine)
- Code samples you’ve produced in articles that actually work
- Existing audience or newsletter on web development topics
What we offer
- €300 – €500 per published article (depending on depth and research)
- Editorial support and feedback before publication
- Byline and author profile on the site
- Flexible — pitch ideas or work from a brief, whichever you prefer
