Tejas Prabhu

Software Engineer, NetApp Research Triangle Park, NC

Software engineer at NetApp, building full-stack tooling and asynchronous Python infrastructure for enterprise storage systems.

I build software for enterprise storage systems at NetApp — full-stack internal applications with FastAPI and Vue, LLM-powered developer tooling that turns unstructured system output into something engineers can act on, and asynchronous Python frameworks that drive high-concurrency workloads across multi-cluster storage environments.

My background is in the systems software that makes large-scale storage verifiable. At Seagate I built the frameworks and CI infrastructure other engineers depended on to ship firmware safely. At the North Carolina Institute for Climate Studies I built ETL pipelines on AWS for large-scale geospatial climate data, cutting processing time by 60%.

I work best where requirements shift and shipping something usable this week matters more than a perfect design next quarter.
