Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolEric Schneider is a technical writer with over a decade of experience crafting user-centered documentation for cloud, SaaS, and enterprise products, currently shaping developer and ops-facing docs at DataStax. He led documentation and UX for Couchbase’s first cloud and Kubernetes-native offerings, pairing AsciiDoc/Antora pipelines with hands-on product work—QA, UI copy, and feature requests—to keep docs tightly aligned with engineering. Comfortable across structured authoring systems (DocBook, DITA) and content tooling, he’s reduced localization costs and sped delivery through single-topic sourcing and CMS best practices. Eric combines traditional tech-comm rigor from enterprise storage vendors with modern, community-friendly documentation practices, including managing contributor workflows and site design. Based in Minneapolis, he brings a practical blend of technical curiosity and cross-functional collaboration that turns complex systems into usable guidance.
