Hi, I'm Tri Vikram
Software Development Engineer passionate about building high-performance distributed systems, container runtimes, and developer tools.
About Me
I am a Software Development Engineer at Amazon with a Master's degree in Computer Science from Florida State University. I specialize in building scalable distributed systems, with deep expertise in high-performance computing, full-stack development, and system optimization.
With extensive experience at ServiceNow, I developed user interfaces using modern frameworks and implemented server-side logic and APIs with JavaScript, significantly improving application stability and performance. At Florida State University, I focused on distributed systems, parallel programming, and advanced operating systems. I worked on MPI and RDMA for parallel programming, socket programming for system-level communication, and AI/deep learning applications. My research focused on optimizing file systems using CNTR and ExtFUSE, and using model pipelining to run large language models in parallel for improved training efficiency.
My goal is to combine my expertise in systems research, distributed computing, and full-stack development to build scalable and efficient infrastructures at Amazon. I aspire to grow as a software engineer, leveraging my skills in system optimization, AI/ML, and backend technologies to solve complex problems at scale.
