@iramkamdar
Machine learning engineer specializing in multimodal AI, retrieval systems, and clinical ML pipelines.
I am a machine learning engineer with hands-on experience building retrieval systems, fine-tuned LLM deployments, and multimodal pipelines that reduce latency and infrastructure costs.
At WebAI I migrated JSON retrieval to Qdrant with HNSW indexing and scalar quantization, cutting retrieval latency from 39s to 2.9s and improving hit rate, and I built LoRA fine-tuning scripts to enable cost-efficient domain-specific LLMs.
As a graduate researcher I engineered predictive modeling pipelines for multimodal imaging, extracted 100+ radiomic features, and improved ranking performance via regularized Cox models; I also implemented clinical NLP using GPT-4 to structure EHR notes for downstream analysis.
My background includes applied NLP, computer vision, OCR pipelines, and production tooling (PyTorch, Hugging Face, Docker, Azure), and I focus on reliable, low-latency deployments and reproducible ML systems that directly support clinical and product goals.

Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
WebAI
May 2025 - Present (6 months)
Reduced retrieval latency from 39s to 2.9s and improved hit rate 0.93→0.96 by migrating retrieval to Qdrant with HNSW, scalar quantization, and multi-vector pooling; built LoRA fine-tuning for LLaMA 3.1 8B to enable cost-efficient domain-specific LLM deployments and implemented low-latency multimodal image verification pipelines.
Computational Biomarker Imaging Group
Sep 2024 - Present (1 year 2 months)
Engineered a predictive pipeline segmenting multimodal scans into 3D supervoxels and extracting 100+ radiomic features, and improved ranking metric from 0.67 to 0.75 via regularized Cox models benchmarked against Random Survival Forests; implemented GPT-4 clinical NLP to extract disease-activity signals from EHR notes.
Gnowit Inc
Jun 2023 - Mar 2024 (9 months)
Leveraged Llama-2 to generate article summaries, reducing curation time from hours to minutes; implemented named entity extraction and deduplication using SpaCy/NLTK and clustered events with DBSCAN/HDBSCAN/Spectral Cl, and parallelized OCR preprocessing with OpenCV and Tesseract across 5,000+ documents.
Université du Québec en Outaouais
Jun 2023 - Aug 2023 (2 months)
Developed a brain tumor detection pipeline using YOLOv5 and dynamic thresholding, achieving >98.5% MRI classification accuracy and reduced analysis time by 20% via advanced preprocessing (Otsu thresholding) and personalized sensitivity tuning.
