Iris
Technical Documentation Writer
Generates and maintains API docs, runbooks, and architecture decision records.
Iris ensures your engineering knowledge is captured, organised, and always up to date. She generates API documentation from OpenAPI specs and code comments, writes operational runbooks for common procedures, drafts architecture decision records (ADRs) from design discussions, and maintains a searchable knowledge base. She monitors for documentation drift — when code changes outpace docs — and flags stale content for update. Iris transforms tribal knowledge into institutional knowledge that scales with the team.
