Technical Writer

Developer documentation that's outdated or unclear costs your team support tickets and costs your external developers trust — and it's one of the first things to fall out of date once engineers are heads-down shipping. We write developer documentation, API reference material, and tutorials focused on clarity and accuracy, working directly from your codebase and API contracts rather than secondhand descriptions. This is for products with an API or SDK where documentation quality directly affects developer adoption, or internal systems where undocumented behavior slows onboarding. You get documentation that's actually accurate against the current code, with a process for keeping it that way.

How We’d Approach This

A clear, staged plan — not a black box

  1. 1

    Review the existing codebase, API, and any current documentation to find gaps and inaccuracies.

  2. 2

    Draft documentation for the highest-traffic sections first and validate it against the actual running code.

  3. 3

    Review the draft with your engineering team to catch technical inaccuracies before wider publication.

  4. 4

    Complete the remaining documentation and set up a process for keeping it current as the code changes.
