“Sean is a talented writer with excellent written and verbal communication skills. His personality not only allows him to build the working relationships he needs to perform his job, but also makes him a pleasure to work with as a peer. He is detail-oriented with a background in engineering which makes him well qualified for technical communications. I would highly recommend Sean for any communications position.”

“Sean McIntyre was a terrific find: one of the top tech-pubs professionals I've ever met in my 20+ year career in high-tech. Sean is a highly skilled writer of course: logical, clear, and well-organized. But even better for me as his employer, he has a knack for people and technology too. Sean was hired to document a complex system of wireless networking products. He came up to full speed in record time and worked smoothly with the engineering staff. He became productive immediately, and within a few months was leading the development of our most crucial network planning documents. Sean has a strong background in training, engineering, and management--all of which complement his talents as a writer. Add that he's also easy to work with (managing him is practically effortless) and you'll understand why I rank him so high.”

The combination of experience, technical and business knowledge, and a strong desire to excel make me a high value-added asset.

“Sean completed several projects for Sage when I was there, and I have also contracted or recommended him for others companies. I have been able to rely on Sean to take on and manage projects with minimal direction. He has met or exceeded expectations for quality of the finished product, and has shown excellent skills managing projects. He has shown good technical knowledge and ability quickly learning the technical aspects of the projects, identifying information needed, seeking out the appropriate engineers and collecting information effectively. He’s worked well with the various personalities in engineering and marketing organizations, and approached each project with enthusiasm.”
