About Tech Jargon Explained
Plain-English explanations for people who work in and around tech.
I created Tech Jargon Explained after seeing colleagues without technical backgrounds struggle to follow conversations with tech teams. It’s for anyone who works in or alongside tech and wants to understand the terms being used.
I’ve worked in the tech industry for more than 20 years, in organisations ranging from small startups to large corporations. My roles have included technical documentation, interface design, software engineering, technical team leadership and agile delivery.
That experience helps me explain technical ideas from different perspectives and show where they fit into everyday work. I write and maintain this site with a focus on clarity and practical context.

AI disclosure: I use LLMs to help me think of new articles to write, and to create initial drafts of those articles. However every article is then human-reviewed and thoroughly edited by me before it goes live.
