TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Just got here a couple of months ago and still working the process out. I
report directly to the VP of Engineering. It's a small company, and so far
everything has been pretty ad hoc.
As for how I like things to work, whenever possible we identify the key
owners of different functions and the writer leads the review effort. Time
allowed varies depending on product lead time, and testing also varies,
because for some products you need a lot more hands-on experience than any
tech writer is likely to be able to get before you're allowed to put your
hands on the hardware.
