  • | Multi-Cloud Deployments | SLM/VLM Fine-Tuning | Medical NLP & Vision
  • Cloud Infrastructure & Deployment (AWS, Azure, GCP):
  • o Deployed Dockerized Node.js servers on AWS EC2 using PM2, and hosted React apps via S3 + CloudFront for scalable frontend delivery.
  • o Ran MongoDB Atlas locally as a Docker image, enabled vector indexing, and built RAG-based search engines using embedded document stores.
  • o Leveraged Azure Blob Storage for managing radiology reports and generated vector indexes with GPT embeddings using Azure OpenAI RAG workflows.
  • SLM Fine-Tuning & Medical Summarization:
  • o Fine-tuned models like T5, Phi-4, and Mistral-7B for radiology report summarization using transfer learning and parameter-efficient techniques like LoRA and QLoRA.
  • o Used rationales from Gemini, MedLM, and GPT-4o to teach slm models using minimal datasets.
  • o Evaluated models using ROUGE, BLEU, and BERTScore and served them via TensorFlow Serving for memory efficiency.
  • Radiology Report Generation (Vision-Language):
  • o Built pathology-specific multi-label classifiers from DICOM images using Google CXR embeddings and lightweight MLPs.
  • o Developed prompt-based filters on a radiology image using cxr embeddings.
  • o Dockerized all models and deployed on Google Cloud Run for scalable and stateless inference.
  • Medical Data Extraction & OCR:
  • o Worked on discharge summary extraction using VertexAI models like Gemini and Google GenAI.
  • o Fine-tuned PaLI-Gemma by combining SigLIP-2 (vision encoder) with Gemini (language decoder) to extract structured medical data from handwritten notes using medical OCR pipelines.

Software Engineer Ai/ML

Sep 2023Mar 2025 · 1 yr 6 mos · Hyderabad, Telangana, India · On-site

  • AI Data Platform for Healthcare (ABDM Integrated):
  • Contributed to an AI-powered healthcare data platform integrated with ABDM ecosystem, completing three major milestones: Patient Registration, Health Information Provider (HIP), and Health Information User (HIU).
  • Built FHIR-compliant documents using AWS HealthLake, DocumentDB, and developed frontend in React (TSX).
  • Seamlessly integrated platform with ABDM via asynchronous API calls and implemented Fidelius encryption for secure communication.
  • Patient Demographic Search Algorithm:
  • Developed a custom patient matching algorithm using Levenshtein distance for name matching, combined with filters like age difference, mobile number, ABHA ID, and demographic closeness to identify existing patient records across HIPs.
  • FHIR Resource Encoding & Decryption:
  • On the HIU side, implemented decryption mechanisms using Fidelius and async APIs.
  • Codified health records like Discharge Summaries, OPD Consultations, Diagnostics, Prescriptions, Wellness, Immunizations, and HIEs using international standards like SNOMED, LOINC, and DICOM.
  • FHIR Engine & Validation Framework:
  • Built a custom FHIR engine using ABDM’s FHIR profiles, value sets, and code systems.
  • Created a parser to validate health documents and used MongoDB for document storage.
  • Developed migration scripts to move documents to AWS HealthLake, leveraging AWS Pipelines to handle large document sets and status-based streaming from both MongoDB and HealthLake.
  • Medical NLP Pipeline:
  • Converted unstructured medical text into FHIR format using cTAKES for named entity recognition and Google NLP API to extract and classify medical entities.
  • Healthcare CRM & Access Control:
  • Contributed to a CRM platform for healthcare organizations using AWS Cognito.
  • Role-based access control (RBAC) at account, facility, and branch levels for secure, hierarchical access management.
