Documentation and Technical Writing for SaaS--AI-Fluent, User-Obsessed

Great documentation doesn't just answer questions — it shapes how people feel about your product. After more than a decade writing for software and SaaS companies, I've learned that the difference between a frustrated user and a confident one often comes down to a single well-placed sentence. I specialize in help center content, knowledge bases, and user-facing documentation for SaaS products. I work efficiently using AI tools, and have hands-on experience optimizing content for AI-powered customer support — including work with FinAI, a top-tier support agent. That means I can help you build documentation that works for both your human users and your support automation. My background in software product and project management gives me an insider's understanding of how development teams work, what stakeholders need, and how to communicate across both. I've worked with startups, nonprofits, and enterprise organizations — co-located and distributed globally. WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU • Help center and knowledge base development and maintenance • How-to articles and quick-start guides for end-users and administrators • Documentation optimized for AI-powered customer support tools • Internal documentation for support, account management, and product teams • Release notes for customers and business stakeholders • Style guides, templates, and defined term libraries • Audit and evaluation of existing documentation Tools I work with regularly: Confluence, Jira, Zendesk, Intercom, Snagit, Lucidchart, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Markdown, HTML, and more. HOW WE'LL WORK TOGETHER I build long-term relationships with clients. The longer we work together, the better I understand your product, your voice, and your users — and the more value I can deliver. I work hourly with a committed weekly block, which gives you flexibility to shift priorities as your product evolves. I'm available 13:00–23:00 UTC and can accommodate teams across time zones. I work best in ongoing engagements with a steady flow of work — typically a minimum of 10 hours per week. If you're not sure yet, let's talk and see if there's a good fit. Please have a look at my portfolio and feel free to reach out with any questions.
