The position requires one writer to be on‑site at a time. Until the new U.S. Coast Guard Safety Service Center facility opens, the technical writing team will rotate between remote work and the single on‑site desk. This rotation ensures continuous on‑site coverage, maintains direct coordination with SAFECEN staff, and allows the full team to stay engaged in daily work regardless of location. Once the new facility is operational, the team will transition to the on‑site arrangement defined by the Government.
