Ruhika Nene Avatar

Grounded in First Principles

I am an Electronics and Computer Engineering undergraduate at PES Modern College of Engineering, Pune. My technical journey combines deep algorithmic foundations with practical engineering in Machine Learning and Backend Python Development.

Recently, as a Machine Learning Intern at IEEE EMBS, I architected ContextRx — an explainable AI pharmacovigilance system achieving 94% accuracy using BioBERT and LightGBM.

Beyond code, I hold strong communication and leadership skills — managing technical events at IEEE, writing for departmental electronics journals, and co-authoring a book chapter on Nobel Laureates.
