Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolKimberly Garmoe is an information architect and technical writer with 11 years of experience designing documentation and knowledge systems for security-sensitive domains like cryptography, identity, payments, and cloud operations. She blends MLIS-trained taxonomy and content governance expertise with hands-on work in ontology, retrieval, knowledge graphs, and RAG to make documentation act as resilient infrastructure for AI systems. At AWS and prior roles she owned large, high-assurance documentation sets, led migrations and IA redesigns, and built editorial and AI-assisted workflows that preserved technical correctness at scale. Comfortable collaborating across engineering, product, and UX, she reduces adoption friction by turning complex operational processes into clear, task-oriented guidance. Based in Seattle, she’s motivated by long-term maintainability and the structures that let AI retrieve, reason over, and use institutional knowledge reliably.
