Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (September 2024)

FREELANCE, Remote

Hi! Do you need engaging, useful technical content?

That amazing thing you're building--I can show people how to use it. I'm a tech writer with extensive experience in engaging demanding technical and non-technical users with relevant, accurate content. And I've helped documentation teams to write more and fuss less by implementing process improvements and automation.

Current and past projects: Developer advocacy, technical blogging, ghost writing, and user documentation for SaaS platforms, embedded software development tools, healthcare workflow, machine learning, and open source software.

I'm seeking to work with Rust (which I know well and am quite good at its advanced features).

I have 8 years of full-time professional experience (in addition to further experience).

I'm skilled at foreseeing how APIs should balance simplicity with flexible capability and what should be exposed or not, as appropriate for the level of the layer at hand. I enjoy using my lower-level knowledge to improve higher-level usage. I'm excellent at making clean, robust, maintainable code with great comments, and at doing debugging, research, and reviewing. I'm good at figuring-out and fixing complex bugs in multithreading. I've both maintained codebases as well as designed and implemented high-reliability high-performance parts, and so I know how to make the various aspects correct the first time.

Location: Connecticut, USA

Remote: Yes (20 years experience, efficient, productive, and highly available)

Willing to relocate: For the right position; remote with occasional travel much preferred
