Viraj Shah
Founder and CEO
Viraj Shah launched MedServ Marketplace in November of 2023. For this week's newsletter, we asked Viraj to tell us about his journey. This is his response.
What should people know about you?
I was the kid who loved exploring how things worked, and that curiosity grew into a passion for understanding complex systems and configurations.
This passion drove me to earn both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Biomedical Engineering, launching my career as a Field Service Engineer at Philips Medical Systems.
Over the years, I transitioned into leadership roles at GE Healthcare and Amazon, where I honed my skills in product management, operations, and business strategy.
My 16+ years of experience in these roles equipped me with a deep understanding of the healthcare services landscape and inspired me to create MedServ Marketplace—a platform dedicated to solving the challenges I’ve seen firsthand. I live in Seattle with my wife, Smiral, and our two daughters, Aarna and Inaya, who bring creativity and joy into my life, and fuel my drive to innovate and build something lasting for our community. I’ve also been deeply involved in community initiatives through organizations like PJM US and GCAU. Programs like Igniting Minds, Built for Girls, and United Way’s Day of Giving have allowed me to mentor young minds, support diverse talent, and give back to the community.
These experiences—both professional and personal—shape the values I bring to MedServ Marketplace and its mission to revolutionize healthcare service delivery.
How did you get the idea for MedServ Marketplace?
The idea for MedServ Marketplace came from a combination of my personal passion and professional experiences. As a Field Service Engineer, I often encountered the challenges that technicians and healthcare providers face—long hours, outdated processes, and the constant pressure to ensure equipment is operational.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of experimenting with innovative ideas that shaped my vision for MedServ Marketplace. These experiences inspired me to explore new ways to reach productivity goals, optimize workflows, and foster innovation among team members. These experiences gave me a deep appreciation for how collaboration, simplicity, and ingenuity can transform an industry. Ultimately, MedServ Marketplace was born to address these challenges, blending high quality standards with a flexible, tech-enabled solution that connects providers with opportunities and facilities in need.
What do you want our Service Providers to know?

With MedServ’s robust tech stack, we handle the heavy lifting, allowing you to focus on what you do best—delivering exceptional service. We believe that gig work for medical device providers can be the next big disruptor in the healthcare space. Together, we can ensure that every piece of equipment is always operational and every medical technician loves the tools they use. At MedServ, we’re not just about equipment; we’re about enabling individuals to live their best lives. This is our vision, and we’re proud to partner with you to bring it to life.
