Every technical document has a purpose and reader. It's essential to understand what you're writing, who needs to read it, and what action that reader needs to take as a result. Every sentence you write should embody this goal. A technical writer is trained to approach writing with this methodology, using proven techniques, patterns and structure.
Think of a technical writer as a specialist, skilled in a technical field in addition to writing. We understand the science, numbers and data, as well as the form, structure and grammar. Just like you might bring in a specialist to help with an audit or IT, a technical writer can help you develop or improve your technical content.
