• Platform Recommendations: Research and propose platforms or methods for publishing articles to maximize user accessibility and engagement.
• Collaboration: Work closely and collaboratively with the Documentation Manager to align documentation strategies and ensure consistency in voice and style.
• User Feedback: Gather and incorporate user feedback to continuously improve documentation quality and relevance.
