Senior technical writer Consultant

Technical writing services

As a Senior Technical Writer Consultant  I offer technical writing services for clients worldwide. With extensive experience in documenting software functionality, I can work both remotely and onsite in Denmark, and remotely in Europe, the US, and beyond.

Most IT companies require technical documentation to assist users with their tasks.A well-designed online help center, accessible online help, or PDFs can provide users with an optimal experience with your product while reducing the burden on your support team. Furthermore, a technical writer can free key employees like developers and engineers from writing and editing tasks, enabling them to focus on development.

What does a technical writer consultant do?

  • Works as a technical writer on both small and large projects.
  • Starts projects from scratch, structures information, and selects tools.
  • Rewrites, restructures, and  updates existing documentation.
  • Translates technical jargon into plain language, but also understands that technical concepts and procedures cannot simply be changed to make content sound better.
  • Writes and reviews UI texts (UX writing).
  • Writes about everything from SaaS, apps, and cloud to master data management, blockchain and crypto.
  • Writes both developer and end user documentation.
  • Interviews developers, product owners, designers and many more.
  • Enjoys trying and testing new software.
