Double Shot #2588

I'm happy to say that I'm off the job market again. I'm starting today as a Principal Engineer at Epion Health. I'm looking forward to immersing myself in a new set of challenges, and gratified to be remaining in healthcare. My deepest thanks to all the Fresh Cup readers who reached out with job leads and support.
