👋 Hi, I'm Nikhila Jain

🖋️ Staff Technical Writer | 🧠 AI‑Native Docs Expert | 🛠️ Docs‑as‑Code Advocate


📃 About me

I'm a staff technical writer with a developer's mindset—bringing 19+ years of experience across software engineering, developer education, and documentation strategy.

My current focus: AI-native documentation systems that scale with engineering teams and support emerging workflows like semantic search, RAG, and LLM fine-tuning. I build docs like software—modular, maintainable, and automation-friendly.


🧠 Core expertise

  • AI-native documentation systems: Designing for LLM integration, embedding context, and long-term content intelligence
  • Docs-as-Code workflows: Git-based documentation, CI/CD pipelines, Markdown-first tooling
  • Developer and API docs: Clear integration guides, REST API references, real-world code samples
  • Infra & platform documentation: PaaS, SaaS, and cloud-native architecture docs (AWS, Docker, Kubernetes)
  • Tooling & tech stack: Docusaurus, GitBook, Markdown, Mermaid, OpenAPI/Swagger, Vale, GitHub Actions
  • Content systems at scale: Modular structures, versioning, search optimization, and internal content reuse

📚 Featured projects
