Adam Pugh
I make complex product documentation and knowledge systems easier to use, govern, and maintain.
I combine technical writing, information architecture, documentation operations, analytics, and practical tooling. My work connects clear content to the systems and decisions that keep it accurate.
I also publish Working Notes and maintain Good Doc Jobs, a free database for documentation job seekers.

How I work
I start with the real source of a problem: product behavior, user tasks, existing content, operating data, and the people who maintain the system. I separate confirmed facts from assumptions. I then build the smallest useful content model, workflow, or tool and check it against the source.
