Welcome to our first meetup as Quest Analytics on Wednesday, July 25th!
This time, we will host an exciting data and developer focused evening where we actually get to see real-life challenges the two companies work on every day.
We will have our own Quest Analytics team and a doc.ai team to show you how we work with healthcare data and present you with some major data challenge that you can help us solve.
Both teams are also recruiting, so be sure to check open positions for Quest Analytics San Francisco team here: https://jobs.lever.co/questanalytics/ & for doc.ai https://doc.ai/about#careers. This practical workshop is a great opportunity for you to learn about the data and the data related opportunities each company presents.
