Is «socialize» the right word to mean «make something common knowledge» in this context?

The context is for a resume — the particular accomplishment is some key idea/method/process that I started using, and which caught on via subtle/indirect means, such as using it and sharing, rather than more direct means, such as policy or training.

I’m trying to use it in a bullet point like so:

Discovered and socialized a method for determining latency from obscure data fields, enabling us to detect a major yet subtle issue impacting performance…

I’m pretty sure socialize is the right word, but I’m wondering if there’s a better word. I’ve heard the word I’m thinking of has also been used in an individual/self context, like «Let me go and ____ myself to this X topic», although this might have been in a business setting where big words are abused…

I find socialize to be completely the wrong word (and I worked in IT for decades). From context, I can just about work out what you’re meaning to say by it, but if I encountered it in a CV, I would go «This person is trying to use long words that they don’t understand».

On the other hand, I can’t think of a good word for it: introduce and promulgate have something of the nature, but they’re not right. I think I’d recast it:

Discovered a method … which has spread widely among …

(I think it’s a plus to say just who the group are where it has spread).

OED has three current senses for socialize:

  1. transitive. To civilize, to make suitable for society. Now chiefly Social Sciences: to instil in (a person) the values and norms of his or her society or group.
  2. intransitive. To be sociable, participate in social activities; to mix socially with.
  3. transitive. To make socialist in nature; to establish or develop according to the principles of socialism; spec. to bring under state ownership or public control, to finance with public funds. Also intransitive.

None has the meaning you intend, although I have seen the word mean «to make known in society.» Even if it’s jargon in your field, it might be advisable not to use socialize. It’s not a meaning which OED has seen often enough even to mention.

There is also the point that even with the meaning «to make known in society,» you haven’t socialized the method. It’s become known through osmosis and the recommendation of others. Colin Fine’s answer addresses this point.
