Our Story
About KarunaCode LLC

New Hampshire-Based

Our Philosophy: Teach-First Development
Build with clients, train their teams, never create dependency. Former bootcamp instructor who documents everything and ensures knowledge transfer.
Owner-Operated Value
No corporate overhead, no account managers, no junior developers. You work directly with me—the senior engineer who builds your software. Lower overhead means better pricing for you.

Andrew Horn
Honesty, Integrity, and Real Expertise
Under-promise and over-deliver. Build what clients actually need, not what makes the biggest invoice.
View GitHub Profile →The Corporate Years
I spent years as a Senior Software Engineer at Centene (Fortune 50) and CarePathRx, building pharmacy and healthcare data platforms. I learned how enterprise software works—HIPAA compliance, data lineage, zero-downtime deployments.
The Teaching Years
At Nucamp and KarunaCode, I discovered I love teaching as much as coding. Now I build software *with* my clients, not *for* them. You learn how it works.
The NH Chapter
After years in corporate settings, I spent 2023-2025 at Temple Forest Monastery in NH and working in Concord politics. I realized local NH businesses need access to the same AI and automation tools I was building for Fortune 50 companies—but without the Fortune 50 bureaucracy and pricing.
Teaching & Mentorship
Former Nucamp bootcamp instructor who discovered the power of teaching. Now brings that same mentorship approach to every client project—training teams, sharing knowledge, never creating dependency.
