Meet the Team - Steve S.
Name? Steve S.
How long have you been at Blackbaud? Going
on 4 years
What technology from the past do you wish would make a comeback? The flux capacitor... I could always use a little more time in
the day!
Favorite part of technical communication? Working
with multiple products, learning about new technology, and the adrenaline rush
and creative high that accompanies routine deadline doom.
Products you Work On? The Raiser's Edge, Blackbaud Enterprise CRM, and Blackbaud
Payment Service
Other projects you Work On? PCI Compliance, usability,
consistency, and localization. I also cartoon for the company employee
newsletter, The Buzz.
How did you get into technical writing? My career as an indie comic book creator, while fun, didn't
really pay the bills... Luckily, I was able to apply my talents as a technical
illustrator and then technical writer.
What's changed about Blackbaud since you've been here? The CEO and the ever-growing headcount.
What hasn't changed? The onsite fitness center remains the best perk I never use.
What's one unique thing about you? When
not working to meet deadlines at Blackbaud, I work to meet deadlines as the
staff cartoonist for the local alternative weekly newspaper.
Anything else? Nope.
