Dinesh Solanki is a Forward Deployed Engineer at Trilliant Digital Pvt Ltd, a digital marketing agency in Bengaluru. Dinesh joined in April 2025 as an Agentic AI Intern and moved into the Forward Deployed Engineer role in July 2025.
The main project is Opaeron (opaeron.com), a multi-tenant AI operations platform for the agency. It turns client meeting transcripts into action items with owners and due dates. The platform has about 226,000 lines of code, 711 API endpoints, 77 PostgreSQL tables and roughly 20 AI agents, built on FastAPI, PostgreSQL 16 with pgvector, Celery and React 19. The details are in What is Opaeron?.
A forward deployed engineer embeds with the people who use the software and builds against their real workflow instead of a written specification. The longer explanation is in What does a forward deployed engineer do?.
#Earlier work at Samsung R&D
From October 2023 to April 2025 Dinesh worked at Samsung R&D Institute India (SRI-B) in Bengaluru, first as a Research Intern and then as a Team Lead. Two pieces of work stand out:
- A platform-agnostic Stable Diffusion pipeline that ran SDXL, ControlNet and IP-Adapter from a command line instead of a web interface. It earned the Outstanding Award and the Excellence Award from Samsung R&D Institute India in 2024. The engineering is written up in Headless SDXL: ControlNet and IP-Adapter Without a WebUI.
- A video question-answering chatbot built on Video-LLaVA-7B with Whisper large-v2 transcripts, which reached 96 percent transcript accuracy in the team's benchmark and led to the Team Lead promotion.
