Now you have an ally in your quest to generate high-quality written communications for business.
A skilled technician who has been refining corporate messages for years, fluent in the language of technology.

The Text Engineer has built a career documenting the work of top technical professionals.
Beginning as a catalog writer at Black Box Corporation and through 15 years of service in the multi-disciplinary nuclear power engineering arena, the TE mastered the presentation of complex technical content to audiences as diverse as Asian utility management, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the computer-buying public. In the process, the Text Engineer learned the terminology and concepts of mechanical engineering, structural, software, electronics, process control and regulatory procedures. See Writing Credentials.

The Text Engineer approaches documentation as an essential complement to design, believing writing quality should be held to the same strict tolerances as any high-tech component. This view has been strengthened over years as a critical player in a rigorous engineering setting. Simply put, good writing and an efficient publications process improve project execution and customer satisfaction.

The TE serves engineering and management daily, once document content is established, as a peerless refiner and polisher of writing. Technical staff trust that a TE review will clean and clarify their prose, and raise the impact of the most salient content. TE now offers this premier editing service to tech business at large.

A veteran of multiple large-scale projects for overseas clients, TE has mastered the art of writing for audiences for whom English is a second, or even third language. This taught clarity, precision, simplicity.

TE's recent focus: NPP major component replacement; plant computer and analog-to-digital instrumentation & control system upgrades; simulator design and implementation.

Add to this a Master's in Corporate Communications and a stint in the PR / ad agency world, and you have a facile and versatile communicator, ready to tackle any of the writing challenges that you face every day.

Text Engineer draws on a network of established Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area technology writers and engineers, and brings to bear as much high-caliber talent as you need. We scale the effort to your project, keeping your cost down.  

TE is also prepared to share years of business writing knowledge with you and your most important communicators through our writing coaching and critique service.
