Employment
Head of Engineering
VitalSpan.ai
2023 - Present
Designed, developed, and deployed a HIPAA-compliant healthcare application that enables secure medical data management across web, iOS, and Android. The platform features an accessible, responsive UI built with Ionic React and TypeScript, supporting light/dark mode for optimal usability. On the backend, I implemented RESTful APIs using Express.js and Sequelize, handling authentication, medical data processing, and integrations with DrugBank and RxNav for medication tracking and prescription analysis. All of the data for a user is also indexed in AWS OpenSearch to easily find information about your health. Additionally, I integrated AWS Textract for OCR-based document processing and Soniox for speech-to-text transcription, enhancing automation and usability for healthcare professionals. Also, used ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot AI to assist and increase productivity.
Beyond development, I managed AWS infrastructure, leveraging S3, IAM, Secrets Manager, RDS, and EC2 to ensure scalability, security, and HIPAA compliance. I optimized performance, implemented encryption and access controls, and automated CI/CD pipelines to enable seamless deployments with minimal downtime. By combining full-stack development, cloud architecture, and security best practices, I delivered a robust, cross-platform healthcare solution that streamlines medical workflows while maintaining strict compliance and data integrity.
