Koustav Ganguly

Developer · Technical Writer · Product Builder

Developer and technical writer with experience building web products, open-source tools, and technical educational content. I work primarily across software development and technical writing, and enjoy taking technical ideas and making them easier to understand and use. Interested in expanding that foundation into product storytelling, creative technical content, and experimentation across formats and distribution.
