Hi, my name is

Prashant Piprotar.

I build things for the web and cloud.

I'm a Sr. Software Engineer specializing in building scalable software solutions, resilient cloud architectures, and leveraging distributed computing to solve hard problems.

About Me

Hello! I am a passionate Sr. Software Engineer focused on crafting high-performance, robust, and cleanly abstracted solutions.


I recently work extensively at Enphase Energy bridging real-time energy management needs with modern web frameworks. I've also poured myself into academic research comparing Apache Spark with MPI C++ to push the limits of cluster computing logic across astrophysics algorithms.

Core Skills

Python JavaScript (ES6+) React.js Node.js Docker & Cloud MPI & Spark FastAPI Java & Spring Boot

Where I've Worked

Aug 2021 — Present

Sr. Software Engineer

Enphase Energy | Solargraf
  • Contributed to the development and maintenance of Enlighten Manager, resolving scaling limits for heavy customer dashboards.
  • Engineered the BOM Calculator to enable real-time tracking and pricing integration across installer supply streams.
  • Architected and managed the migration path to overhaul user interfaces, increasing active proposal throughput speeds.
  • Established Solargraf's Public API surface and technical documentation center targeting global external developers.
Jul 2020 — Jul 2021

M.Tech Thesis Researcher

IIT Kanpur
  • Designed parallel architecture frameworks comparing MPI C++ vs Apache Spark against huge datasets representing cosmology and meteorology.
  • Evaluated IO limits across heavily memory-bounded workloads operating on highly clustered VM grids.
Jan 2018 — Apr 2018

Software Engineering Intern

CDAC, Pune | SDN Online Lab
  • Helped bridge connections natively towards early iterations of an open-source educational Network Emulator.
  • Aided deployment optimizations covering full-lifecycle ideation mappings.

Some Things I've Built

2026

AetherScan

GPU-accelerated 3D reconstruction pipeline using Facebook's Fast3R model with CUDA, processing multi-view images into dense point clouds. Features real-time WebSocket streaming of point cloud data with raw Float32Array buffers, bypassing React state for high-performance rendering of 1M+ points. Containerized full stack with Docker Compose and NVIDIA Container Toolkit.
