Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDennis Kennedy is a highly experienced Windows-focused programmer-writer with over 30 years of development and technical writing expertise, currently delivering developer content and code for Microsoft Azure services in fully remote roles. He combines deep hands-on skills in C#, C++, PowerShell, Python, REST/JSON, DTDL and SDK samples with content engineering practices—Markdown, YAML, Git, VS Code/Visual Studio and proprietary deployment toolchains—to produce API references, tutorials and sample applications. His background spans Azure Cognitive Services, IoT, OpenAI, Digital Twins, and Xbox developer tools, plus earlier leadership on SQL Server and Visual Studio documentation, reflecting rare cross-cutting knowledge of both platform internals and developer experience. A published author and former CTO, he frequently builds internal automation and content tooling to standardize delivery and accelerate quality, and he prefers 100% remote engagements for interviews and contracts. Not obvious from a glance: beyond writing, he’s repeatedly implemented conversion and analysis utilities (lexer/parsers, content converters, and scripting) that turned complex product surfaces into maintainable, testable documentation assets.
