This is definitely not the typical code focused style of article I usually publish here on Baeldung.
Jumping right into it – the site is growing, more and more developers are applying to become authors, and the current editorial team (10 part-time editors) is starting to need help.
I’m looking for a new part-time technical editor to join the team and work with new authors.
And what better way to find a solid content editor for the site than reaching out to readers and the community.
The Right Candidate?
First – you need to be a developer yourself, working or actively involved in the Java and Spring ecosystem. All of these articles are code-centric, so being in the trenches and able to code is instrumental.
Second – and it almost goes without saying – you should have a very good command of the English language.
What Will You Be Doing?
You’re going to work with authors, review their new article drafts and provide helpful feedback.
The goal is to generally make sure that the article hits a high level of quality before it gets published. More specifically – articles should match the Baeldung formatting, code and style guidelines.
Beyond formatting and style, articles should be code-focused, clean and easy to understand. Sometimes an article is almost there, but not quite – and the author needs be guided towards a better solution or a better way of explaining some technical concept.
Budgets and Time Commitment
You’re generally going to be working with 6-7 authors to help them with their articles.
An article usually takes about 2 rounds of review until it’s ready to go. All of this usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes of work for a small to medium article and can take 60 minutes for larger writeups.
Overall, you’ll spend somewhere around 10-12 hours/month.
The budget for the position is 600$ / month.

If you think you’re well suited for this work, I’d love to work with you to help grow Baeldung.
