Linux & Multi-OS Environments: Documentation and lifecycle management across multiple client systems (SUSE, openSUSE, RHEL, Ubuntu, Debian) with Uyuni and SUSE Multi-Linux Manager

I am a Documentation Architect and DocOps engineer with over a decade of experience designing documentation systems that are scalable, reliable, and aligned with modern DevOps practices. At SUSE, I merge technical writing with software engineering to build documentation ecosystems that integrate automation, branding, localization, and SEO into a cohesive workflow.
I pioneered the use of Antora and Asciidoctor at SUSE, creating a modern Docs-as-Code toolchain with Make and GitHub Actions. While many products continue to rely on the established DocBook system, I aided the design and rollout of Antora-based documentation for selected projects, including Rancher and Longhorn, by enabling and guiding teams through migration planning and adoption. My role has been to make it possible for others to succeed with new approaches while respecting existing processes.
My leadership extends beyond tooling. I collaborate closely with product managers, product owners, engineers, and QA to align documentation with product lifecycles and customer needs. I have supervised documentation staff, managed enterprise and open-source documentation releases, and coordinated with third-party vendors to deliver multilingual outputs.
The results of this approach are measurable. I led SUSE’s most successful documentation project, which achieved industry-leading analytics scores: DCI 87/100, QA 98/100, Accessibility 80/100, and SEO 83.9/100—well above industry benchmarks.
I focus on building documentation systems that scale, support business goals, and provide users with information that is accurate, accessible, and trusted.
I am a documentation architect and senior technical writer with more than a decade of experience in technical writing, DevOps, and automation. I design documentation systems that are scalable, reliable, and adaptable, enabling them to keep pace with enterprise and open-source development. At SUSE, I combine writing and engineering to ensure data center and multi-distro Linux solutions are documented clearly, remain accurate, and leverage automation where it delivers real value.
My work has driven the adoption of modern Docs-as-Code practices (Antora, Asciidoctor) across selected SUSE and cloud-native projects, while also supporting established DocBook workflows. I have guided and enabled teams in migration planning, localization workflows, and automation pipelines, ensuring long-term maintainability and measurable quality improvements.
Key Focus Areas
• Documentation: Installation, administration, troubleshooting, APIs, developer onboarding, and knowledge base content
• Localization & Translation: Automated pipelines, Weblate integration, multilingual builds, and coordination with vendors and translators
• Tooling & Operations: CI/CD for documentation (GitHub Actions, GitLab, OBS), frameworks (Antora, Asciidoctor, DocBook, Docusaurus), build automation (Make, Jinja2), containerized environments (Kubernetes, Rancher, Docker, Podman)
• Engineering & Platforms: Linux (multi-distro: SUSE, RHEL, Ubuntu, Debian), Windows (WSL), scripting and DevOps-aligned automation
• AI & Innovation: Python-based tools for SEO metadata, last-modified tracking, AI-assisted quality checks, and intelligent workflow automation
I build documentation ecosystems that scale with the product: automated, multilingual, SEO-optimized, and designed to close the gap between development and documentation.
I served as a Front Desk Associate at a U.S. Army hotel in Germany, supporting service members, families, and government officials. My focus was on creating a welcoming, efficient, and secure lodging experience that upheld both Army and hospitality standards.
Key Responsibilities
I managed the AAFES Print Shop, supporting both local and inter-regional clients with design and print services. My role combined operations management with creative design, ensuring efficient workflows, high-quality output, and customer satisfaction.
Key Responsibilities
I served four years with the 57th Signal Battalion, playing a key role in deploying, configuring, and maintaining the largest tactical mobile network in history during Operation Iraqi Freedom. This included Node Centers, switching systems, line-of-sight radio towers, and SMART-T terminals for MILSTAR satellite interconnection.
Key Responsibilities
Deep domain expertise in documentation systems
