Integrated OpenAI-based LLM workflows to extract structured metadata from PDFs, enabling automated and dynamic compliance validations.
Implemented a custom Impact Tracking engine to calculate revenue exposure from multi-rule violations and contractual exceptions.
Built GraphQL APIs (Ariadne) and corresponding React dashboards to visualize contract status, flagged violations, and GPO handling in real time.
Engineered reconciliation logic to identify mismatches across invoice, contract, and customer metadata using dynamic business rules.
Secured all services using OIDC-based authentication and Azure Key Vault for environment-sensitive credential management.
Led sprint reviews, release planning, and production deployments, including patching, monitoring, and performance tuning.
Achieved automated test coverage across backend and UI layers using PyTest and Selenium.
Managed Terraform-based infrastructure deployment and CI/CD pipelines via GitLab across development, QA, and production environments.
Project : Clinical AI – Intelligent PDF Extraction Platform
Architected and delivered a full-stack AI solution to extract structured clinical data from unstructured PDF documents.
Independently gathered requirements, proposed the tech stack (AWS EC2, SageMaker, Docker, React, Chakra UI), and led end-to-end implementation.
Designed intuitive Figma mockups and converted them into a responsive React frontend with dynamic PDF upload and response rendering.
Integrated OpenAI models via SageMaker to generate real-time metadata extraction based on uploaded clinical PDFs.
Engineered a secure FastAPI backend to receive files, trigger AI inference, and return structured results.
Containerized and deployed frontend and backend using Docker, hosted on AWS EC2 with IAM-secured access via Ubuntu and Putty.
Built robust token validation, error handling, and response formatting to ensure stability and production readiness.
