Seattle-Eastside Q2 AUG Recap + Local Job Postings!

[NicoleJohnson]

Hey there, Seattle-Eastsiders!

A bit belated, but wanted to give a quick recap of our Q2 meeting that was hosted by Costco on May 18th - HUGE thank you to Ed Hagstrom for coordinating this meeting space, definitely the best location yet! And thanks to a whole-lotta Costco folks who turned out for this event, in addition to other AUG members from all over the Puget Sound area (Amazon, T-Mobile, Levi Strauss, Deltek, Plaster Group), we had our best turnout ever!! About 60 people came to hear about how Costco optimizes workflows in addition to optimizing warehouse space... and then were all dazzled by one of the most impressive, comprehensive demonstrations of Alteryx + Tableau I've ever seen (Jacob Olsufka from Decisive Data, you are a wizard...) <-- Speaking of Alteryx + Tableau skills, check out a pair of job links below looking for people who are passionate/proficient in those programs!

Overall, a huge thank you to our fabulous presenters and enthusiastic attendees for making this such a successful meeting! 

Hi everyone!
