BayOne Throughline Thursdays

In one of our previous discussions, we found that more than 54% of people are dreaming of making a career switch. However, how many are really ready to make that leap? Most are too afraid of facing the risks, and so…career dreams remain unfulfilled.

In this episode, we discuss The Thrill of the Leap with Bhupesh Bajaj, Co-founder, and CTO of Glide Health.

Bhupesh is an accomplished Engineering Executive with delivery successes in Healthcare, SaaS, eCommerce and Supply Chain. He has led new product development, architecture, platform transformations and tech M&A integrations for growing startups as well as multi-billion dollar enterprises. Prior to founding Glide Health, Bhupesh was VP of Engineering at Change Healthcare, held engineering leadership roles at Cardinal Health and led technology engagements at  Deloitte.
