Career Opportunity

GeoSpectrum is growing and has a new career opportunity for an experienced Technical Writer!

We’re looking for a detailed-oriented Technical Writer to create clear, engaging documentation that supports users of complex underwater systems. In this role you’ll develop high-quality manuals, IETMs, and training materials that simplify technical information for operators and maintainers. Collaborating with engineers, SMEs, and program managers, you’ll turn detailed input into accessible content enhanced with visuals. You’ll ensure consistency with internal standards like S1000D, and contribute to a range of writing projects.

About Us

Based in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, we design and manufacture state‑of‑the‑art underwater acoustic components, transducers, and end‑to‑end systems for maritime surveillance and exploration. Serving clients across ocean science, defence, and oil and gas industries, we are known for our innovation and for delivering reliable, customized solutions that exceed customer expectations. Over three decades, our core values have shaped a supportive and creative environment that emphasizes employee engagement, technical excellence, and strong customer relationships.

Maintain consistency with internal style guides and documentation standards and specifications (such as S1000D).
Support other writing assignments such as program documentation, technical reports, proposals and internal documents.
Follow internal company procedures for publications development and document control.
Represent the technical publications team at project meetings and design reviews, as required.
