Transition Developer Experience/API group to Isaac Durham

• Stage/group being transitioned: devopsdeveloper experience / ~"group::api"
• Current technical writer: #docs channel
• Incoming technical writer: @idurham
• Reassignment milestone: %18.8

Tasks for EMs and PMs

• Add the incoming TW to team meetings and any group aliases.
  • Meeting list: TBD
  • Group aliases: TBD
• Async retrospectives (if applicable):
  • Update teams.yml.
  • If the retrospective happens in a private project, add the TW to it.
• Remove the outgoing TW from team meetings and any group aliases.
• Determine the resources needed by the incoming TW to learn the stage / group features, similar to an engineer's onboarding.

Tasks for incoming technical writer

• Set up coffee chats with the group's:
  • Product manager
  • Engineering manager @amyphillips
  • Frontend and backend team members (not necessary to meet all)
  • UX designer
• Read the product documentation associated with your group (as identified by the group attribute in documentation pages' metadata).
• In the www-gitlab-com repository, update:
  • data/stages.yml, with your new assignment. If you're onboarding as a new Technical Writer, you can wait until you've completed a full release cycle as a trainee before doing this step and the next steps.
  • In the gitlab repository, update as needed (in the following order, but can be done in the same MR):
    1. The metadata in all related markdown files (if the group name changed).
    2. Group assignments in lib/tasks/gitlab/tw/codeowners.rake.
    3. .gitlab/CODEOWNERS by running the tw:codeowners Rake task to ensure no pages are missed.
• If the group was previously assigned to the #docs channel, add it to the TW milestone plan template.
• If you manually edited the following to include your group names, update them:
  • Slack profile: Update the Title section that displays under your profile picture and name.
  • Team member profile: Update the role value. Don't edit specialty because it syncs directly from Workday.

Tasks for technical writing manager

• Update google sheets used for team rebalancing planning.
• If this transition impacts a group with a stage lead, update the list of TWs for the stage in the stage lead issue script, the milestone planning issue template, and in the current milestone planning issue.
• Check Workday for the Job Title Specialty (Multi-Select). If the specialty does not exist, create an issue in the People Group general project, and use the Workday: Job Title Specialty Request template.
• Update Workday with the new group assignments. Log a HelpLab Workday Data Changes request to update the Job Title Specialty in Workday. Workday updates the group assignments in data/team_members/person.
