This is a terrible solution. Writing is part of the developers job requirements. And writing doesn't just happen in documentation. It happens in emails, technical specs, presentations, code comments. Developers should maybe just get better at their job because documenting and writing is part of it. |

Is technical writing part of your interviews? do you hire, promote or fire people based on technical writing performance? Is documentation taken as seriously as other code deliverables?
Why paying an expensive senior developer to maintain documentation in a non-commited way when you can pay a technical writer to do it better and for cheaper than the engineer can? And with real ownership and accountability over documentation, unlike the engineers.
Technical writers are cost efficient and pay themselves very quickly.
