Led design and deployment of scalable unstructured document intelligence pipelines integrating hybrid PDF parsing, OCR, and rule-based validation for multiple states and hospitals, reducing processing time per case from 30+ minutes to seconds (under 2 min for OCR-heavy cases) Reduced pipeline runtime by 80%+ by diagnosing CPU bottlenecks and implementing process-based parallelism in a HIPAA compliant local environment Built NLP-driven evidence matching pipelines (embeddings, topic modeling) with automated PDF highlighting to surface relevant content for reviewers Redesigned the CPD daily process using Python-based transformations and API integrations, reducing turnaround time by 90%+ and minimizing operational risk Implemented audit-grade traceability with structured logging, identity stamping, and reproducibility controls in regulated data environments Pioneered NLP applications for IDR adjudication by extracting insights from PDFs using frequency analysis, semantic vectors, and feature engineering Engineered automated PDF EOB extraction pipelines tailored to payer-specific formats across multiple hospital systems
