PROFILE

Paul Gottschling

Paul Gottschling developed and maintained automated documentation workflows for the gravitational/shared-workflows repository, focusing on reliability and reducing manual maintenance. He built the Docpaths Bot, a Go-based GitHub Actions workflow that enforces documentation redirect integrity by validating renamed or deleted files against a central config, preventing broken links before merge. Paul enhanced the workflow to handle edge cases, such as non-PR events and category index replacements, aligning with Docusaurus routing logic and reducing false positives. He also automated changelog labeling for documentation-only changes, streamlining release processes. His work demonstrated depth in Go development, CI/CD automation, and robust workflow engineering.
