# Tamal Chowdhury

> Docs engineer and technical writer. I create AI-accelerated developer documentation for dev-tool, auth, and API SaaS teams on a fixed monthly retainer. My current client is Kinde (auth and identity platform), and that work is public.

I work docs-as-code (Markdown/MDX, pull requests, Docusaurus, Mintlify, Next.js) with AI-assisted research and drafting, plus quality checks such as Vale style linting, link checking, and code-sample review. I test, verify, and edit every page before it ships.

## Services

- Docs Maintenance (starting at $1,500/month): docs kept in sync with releases, scoped updates and fixes, changelog review, link and style checks.
- Docs Growth (starting at $3,000/month): everything in Maintenance, plus new guides, tutorials, quickstarts, SDK and API reference docs, and a monthly docs health report.
- Docs Launch (starting at $3,000–$6,000, one-off): new docs site setup or migration, information architecture, core quickstarts and templates.
- Terms: month-to-month retainers, cancel anytime with 30 days' written notice, no long-term lock-in.
