Siobhan Fitzgerald-Gibson

Technical Author, UX Writer, Content Strategist

Hello! I'm an experienced technical communicator, available to help you turn complex information into clear, human-readable content.

I have over a decade of experience working on projects of all sizes, from major development software like Unity Technologies to small start-up tools. I also have experience leading teams and projects, establishing documentation quality standards, mentoring technical writers, and speaking at international conferences.

I work through my consultancy, Solas Documentation Ltd. I'm especially drawn to projects with a public-interest angle: civic tech, public sector, and anything where good documentation genuinely makes people's lives easier.

Areas of expertise

I'm particularly good at owning and producing these things:

• Documentation: User manuals, API references, and docs tools
• Learning materials: Tutorials and walkthroughs
• Community content: Technical articles and marketing content
• User interfaces: UI text and user journeys
• Internal communication: Technical docs and processes to keep teams connected

Information for good

Information is empowering. Beyond my client work, I contribute docs and communications support to hobby projects and community events. I also write zines and resources, provide healthcare advocacy, volunteer at games and maker/hacker festivals, and teach music in a local samba band.

Subject to conditions, I can offer a lower rate on projects and consultations for small businesses, non-profit organisations, and social causes.
