Technical Writing

This is the skill you want when you're writing API docs, runbooks, ADRs, or any developer-facing documentation. It pushes you toward the right structure for each doc type (tutorials teach, references answer, runbooks instruct) and enforces practical rules like showing code before explaining it, optimizing for scanning, and keeping docs in the repo where they won't drift. The guidance is opinionated in a useful way: immutable ADRs, realistic JSON examples instead of placeholder values, tutorials that verify each step. If your team's documentation feels scattered or your READMEs read like stream-of-consciousness commits, this will give you a framework that actually scales with engineering teams.
