Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
In principle your role as a software technical writer is Shariah Compliant if it does not necessitate you looking at images of the opposite gender. If you are required to do so, then you should look for alternate employment.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
