Technical Writer Interview Experience - Devtron

Hey folks, I hope you all doing amazing. This article is not about any technical stuff like JavaScript, Python, etc. This article focuses on my experience for the Technical writer position applied at @devtron_inc company.

How It Started ✨

It all started with a Twitter post containing information about hiring a tech writer role at Devtron. I started searching about what is Devtron and what are requirements of the role are.
Then after doing all my research, I found that Devtron is a great opportunity for me to start with because Devtron is a tool or platform that helps you to set up and monitor all devops things.

Like CI/CD pipeline, dockerization, K8s, etc.
