Technical Skills

Proficiency in authoring MS Word.
Experience using Microsoft SharePoint or similar content repositories for document management and content reuse.
Experience with terminology and content quality tools such as Acrolinx.
Proficiency with illustration tools (Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Creo Illustrate, KeyShot).
Experience with collaboration tools like JIRA and Confluence.
Understanding of content publishing pipelines and localization workflows.
Experience with structured authoring concepts is preferred. Familiarity with DITA XML, CCMS platforms (such as Astoria On-Demand or AEM), and XML editors (such as Oxygen XML Editor or Arbortext Editor) is an advantage.
Working knowledge of XML-based formats and related technologies (XQuery, metadata tagging).
Interest in GenAI and automation using Python or similar programming languages is desirable.

Assessment Process

Candidates will complete a writing and structuring test to demonstrate technical English and content organization skills.
Successful candidates will advance to subsequent interview rounds with technical and hiring teams.

Join the global Xylem team to be a part of innovative technology solutions transforming water usage, conservation, and re-use.
