Top SchoolLouise Mcfarlane is a Technical Writer with nearly a decade at the intersection of documentation and infrastructure, currently shaping developer- and admin-facing content at Google after senior technical writing roles at VMware. She pairs a deep Unix systems-administration background and scripting experience with formal training in technical writing, enabling her to translate complex networking, API, and cloud workflows into clear, actionable guides. Her work spans migration of legacy docs to modern formats, CMS tooling, and hands-on maintenance of physical and cloud NSX deployments—skills that help her spot gaps and automate repetitive tasks. Curious and detail-oriented, she routinely partners with engineers to produce reproducible procedures and has a track record of creating scripts and diagrams to capture system state for better documentation.
