Engineering Specialist at Kheiron Medical Technologies (2020–2021)

Senior technology advisor for flagship products Mia and Mia IQ.

Kheiron Medical Technologies

Backed by a neural network stack, our team had built a product that integrated with hospital systems to help ensure proper breast positioning and diagnose malignancies in mammography digital images. Responsibilities of our engineering team included acquiring and pre-processing images, incorporating machine learning models, visualizing predictions and facilitating the verification and validation process.

My main focus had been designing a scalable cloud-first solution for Kheiron's flagship products Mia and Mia IQ, and ensuring a smooth migration from an earlier monolithic on-premise version. This had entailed collaborating with our Machine Learning, Data Acquisition, Product and Clinical Teams.

Technologies involved: Kotlin, Python, C++, PostgreSQL, TensorFlow, AWS, Azure
