FelixHealthcare.AI, a company that offers Artificial Intelligence Healthcare engine that incorporates machine learning and deep learning technologies to help healthcare organizations, has announced the appointment of Gourav Thakkar as Director of Data Science and Engineering. 

In this new role, Gourav will enhance the capabilities of the technology platform, scale the engineering team, and drive innovation at scale to support our existing and new customers. 

Most recently, Gourav had a significant technology leadership role at Evive Health where he helped scale the technology team from 10 to 300+ engineers while helping the company raise over $40M in Series B funding.

“I’m very impressed by the results-focused leadership team, the fundamental strength of the technology platform and the outsize real-world impact it has had on its customers,” said Gourav Thakkar. “I look forward to building on the strength of this award-winning platform to support our customers and help make healthcare better for all stakeholders.”

To support this organic growth, we expanded our engineering team to over 40 strong, mission driven, resilient data science and machine learning engineers. Gourav’s addition to the leadership team could not come at a better time as we expect unprecedented growth in 2021 and beyond.”
