About

I build the backends behind AI products, and I like the whole path a request takes.

Portrait of Varad Khonde

Background

I’m a Python backend engineer at Newtuple, a GenAI services company that builds and deploys complete software for clients. I joined in August 2024, when the company was still small, so my work has covered a lot: services, auth, infrastructure, AI features and the engineering practices around them.

Before that I freelanced for two years, building AI, automation and data-processing tools for clients.

The full timeline, and the mentoring, hiring and review work I do around the code, is on the experience page.
