About Me

Hey! I'm Trinath, a software engineer who enjoys building scalable backend services and full-stack web applications that make operations simpler and faster. My work spans finance and higher education, from payment systems handling 1M+ daily transactions to live observability for hundreds of networked devices.

At Clemson, I build production platforms with Python/FastAPI, Next.js, React, and AI-assisted troubleshooting workflows. I like owning systems end to end: data modeling, integration layers, testing, deployment, and the small details that make software reliable in real environments.

I'm AWS Solutions Architect certified and work regularly across .NET Core, Python, React, Node.js, AWS, and SQL-backed systems. Cloud architecture, automation, and developer-friendly tooling are the parts of the stack that keep pulling me back in.

Clemson, SC
  • Led the design and development of a production observability platform from a Python/FastAPI backend and Next.js/React frontend through deployment, giving engineers a single live view of 450+ networked devices across 54 rooms.
  • Built an AI troubleshooting engine combining rule-based, tool-calling, and reasoning models from OpenAI and Anthropic with automatic failover, cutting device fault diagnosis time by 75%.
  • Re-architected the data layer by consolidating 15,000+ scattered data files into a tuned database with full-text search, taking telemetry and log lookups from minutes to under a second.
  • Engineered a unified integration layer spanning 18 device types across 11 hardware vendors, replacing separate vendor-specific code paths with one monitoring interface.
  • Built the testing and deployment pipeline with 380+ automated tests and one-command deploys with dry-run and rollback for safe, repeatable Linux server releases.

Mumbai, India
  • Created a high-throughput transaction reconciliation portal using ASP.NET and SQL Server, automating error resolution for 1M+ daily payments while reducing manual effort by 65% and processing time by 4 hours daily.
  • Developed a dispute resolution system on .NET Core that streamlined validation workflows for failed and cancelled payments, reducing transaction failure rates by 78%.
  • Automated the partner onboarding process using .NET Web API (C#), improving collaboration efficiency for corporate clients managing relationships with 1000+ concurrent vendors.
  • Optimized banking portal performance by rewriting critical database queries (T-SQL) and API endpoints (Entity Framework), reducing server load by 30% and improving response times by 50%.
