Summary
Robert Berry is a senior technical publications engineer with nearly three decades of experience translating complex software and APIs into clear, developer-focused documentation. Currently at FICO and formerly a long-tenured documentation engineer at IBM, he pairs a programmer’s mindset (BASIC to Python, C/C++, Java, JavaScript) with meticulous writing skills to produce API references, tutorials, and deep-dive architectural content. He has hands-on experience automating documentation workflows—authoring Python CLI tools and bash integrations to streamline OpenAPI-driven publishing for Watson services. Robert excels at probing unclear problems, distilling core questions, and collaborating with architects and product teams so subject-matter experts never feel their time is wasted. Based in Pittsboro, NC, he brings both journalism training and a psychology background to craft explanations that resonate across skill levels.
