Viewpointsystem GmbH

Contract details

Freelancer / indepedent contractor

12-month contract

20 hours/week

As soon as possible

You speak both languages: science and people.

We build award-winning smart glasses in Vienna: hardware, firmware, software, all under one roof. Eye tracking is at the heart of our technology. Our technology is complex, peer-reviewed, and genuinely worth writing about. We’re looking for a freelance science and technical writer who can take a briefing, dive deep into the subject matter, and come back with content that is accurate, compelling, and publication-ready, in both German and English.

This isn’t ghostwriting for generalists. It’s serious technical content that needs a serious writer.

Making Future Reality together - are you in?

Tasks

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Whitepapers, technical articles, and scientific content that accurately represent our technology and research

  • Content that makes complex deep-tech topics accessible to informed B2B audiences, without dumbing them down

  • Project-based collaboration: from briefing through expert reviews to final sign-off, independently and with precision

  • Interview subject-matter experts, coordinate reviews, and incorporate feedback through final approval

  • Suggest ideas for diagrams, infographics, and data visualizations where they add value

  • Output in both German and English, publication-ready in both

Requirements

What You Bring to the Team

  • Several years of proven experience in scientific or technical writing, ideally in deep-tech or a B2B technology environment

  • A background in natural sciences, engineering, or a related technical field; genuine interest in eye tracking or related topics such as computer vision, human-machine interaction, or wearables

  • Proven experience making scientific topics accessible to a general audience, e.g. through articles in popular science magazines or on the blog of a science-driven company 

  • The ability to independently work through complex topics after a briefing. You ask the right questions and find your own way to the answer

  • Flawless writing in German and English, with a sharp eye for accuracy, nuance, and tone

  • A structured, reliable, and precise way of working. You own a piece from first draft to final version

  • High standards: you don’t submit something you wouldn’t put your name on. 

  • Being based in or near Vienna is a plus, so we can meet in person every now and then

To apply, please share

  • Your CV 

  • A technical white paper or scientific article you wrote yourself

  • An example of how you made complex technology or research accessible to a broader audience

  • A short note on your contribution to each piece
