Brittany's LinkedIn:   / brobrahn   Twice as productive with LLMs. That was the company mandate. Nobody mentioned where the time to learn them would come from. In this episode of Technical Writing Uncensored, I sit down with technical writer Brittany Robrahn, a longtime solo writer who has been a team of one at nearly every company she's worked for. We get into what it's actually like documenting alone, sneaking humor past the reviewers, and job hunting in a market that keeps redefining the word "remote." 🧩 What it's really like being the sole technical writer, with no peer to bounce drafts off of 😅 Why humor belongs in docs (shoutout to Slack release notes and the Amazon 404 dog) 🤖 The "be twice as productive" LLM mandate, and why that benchmark falls apart for docs 🔒 What happens when your docs live behind a login wall and become invisible to crawlers and agents 💼 Job hunting right now: contract creep, clearance-only roles, and the great "remote asterisk" If you got value from this conversation, please like, subscribe, and hit the bell icon.
