About
I'm Matthew Hendricks—a senior developer experience consultant who fixes documentation systems nobody else wants to deal with.
I've spent 15+ years working in developer tools, trading platforms, and technical documentation. I've been a product manager at NinjaTrader, built production SaaS systems, and shipped docs for teams ranging from startups to enterprise.
Now I focus on the work most consultants avoid: messy migrations, legacy system cleanups, and building documentation architectures that actually scale. I specialize in making docs AI-ready through schema design and structured content.
I work async-first. That means no syncs, no standups, no status meetings. You get focused work and clear deliverables instead of calendar overhead. Most Mini Audits and cleanup projects are delivered in days, not weeks.
If your docs are a mess and you need someone who can untangle them without hand-holding, let's talk.
