Hi, I'm Jacob, co-founder of Superconductive Health where we help companies with their data infrastructure including ETL services and data quality products.
A year or so ago, I put together a list of all the health care companies that posted jobs on HN's Who's Hiring thread. Seperate form the looking for a job aspect, it made for an interesting list of the opportunities in health care start-ups are attacking. Seeing the hiring thread again this month piqued my interest, and I figured it was worth sharing this month's batch.
