docs‑as‑code practice that accelerates onboarding, reduces support burden, and improves change velocity.
Work cross‑functionally with business, engineering and delivery teams in the App Dev workstream

- Own the Platform documentation portfolio: architecture overviews, service/component guides, integration patterns,
API/SDK reference, data contracts, runbooks/SOPs, troubleshooting guides, and release notes.
- Establish documentation standards & IA: define templates, taxonomy, versioning, and content lifecycle; implement
style and terminology guides aligned to CLIENT expectations.

or other documentation platforms), search, and link integrity checks; integrate with GitHub/Azure DevOps and CI
(e.g., Jenkins).
- Author API/SDK content: collaborate with developers to produce OpenAPI/Swagger‑driven reference, code snippets,
authentication/authorization flows, rate‑limits, and usage examples.
- Document data flows: capture upstream/downstream dependencies, batch/near‑real‑time ingestion patterns, data
validation/audit trails, and operational guardrails; maintain data dictionaries and lineage notes where applicable.
- Create operator‑grade runbooks: incident playbooks, SLO/SLA documentation, monitoring/alerting handbooks,
change management checklists, and rollback procedures.
- Partner across time zones:
run SME interviews, doc clinics, and content reviews with CLIENT stakeholders in Current
York/London; drive crisp approvals and publication cadences.
- Measure impact: define and track documentation KPIs (adoption, search success, time‑to‑onboard, ticket deflection).

banking/capital‑markets).

and dashboards, and basic scripting/SQL to validate flows.
- Tooling: Markdown, static site generators (MkDocs/Sphinx/Docusaurus), OpenAPI/Swagger, diagramming
(Mermaid/draw.io/Visio), Confluence; comfortable working in GitHub/Azure DevOps and CI (e.g., Jenkins).
