Episode description

Think software engineers are antisocial techies? Think again! On this week’s episode, Ovadia Harary breaks the stereotype of a software engineer as he explains his job at Flatiron Health where he creates software to help doctors accelerate cancer research. "As a software engineer, I build tools to help solve a variety of problems. Recently, I worked with an intern of mine to create a software that notifies the company when we need to hire more employees. I also work with tons of data that is used to help doctors accelerate their cancer research, and so I always have to put myself into their shoes to think about how they would want the data to be presented. I'm continuously learning each day, which helps me grow personally and professionally." -Ovadia Harary Want to be featured in our next episode?
