About this role

Our mission is to make exceptional healthcare accessible anytime, anywhere, for anyone.

American healthcare is broken. Patients sit on hold, get lost in communication loops, and struggle to reach the right care. Everyone has felt it, and no one should have to.

Assort Health is the fastest-growing AI agents company in healthcare, and we are making access to care effortless, fast, and human.

Our omnichannel agents handle calls, texts, and chats from end to end, integrating with EHR and PMS systems and the real-world preferences of every provider so patients reach the care they need without the wait.

Since launching in 2023, Assort has handled over 150M patient interactions across roughly 8,000 providers and cut average hold times from 11 minutes to 1. We resolve more than 98% of calls, schedule with 99% accuracy, and hold a 4.5 out of 5 rating across over 52K patient reviews. For the practices we serve that means real ROI, around $3.3M in added revenue per 100 physicians.

Our advantage compounds. We have built the largest specialty healthcare voice dataset in the world, spanning 62K care protocols and 1.6M decision pathways, and it makes every agent we ship sharper than the one before. And we are growing fast. In 2025 we were a team of 15. Today we are a 150-person company with a 40-plus person engineering team, and we are on track to double again this year.

Revenue is up 15x in the last 15 months. We have raised over $100M at a $700M valuation, backed by Lightspeed and First Round, and we were named to the 2026 Enterprise Tech 30, the only healthcare AI company on the list, and the Forbes Cloud 100 alongside OpenAI, Anthropic, Stripe, and Ramp.

About the Role

At Assort, we're building toward a future where AI is embedded into how we operate, not layered on top. We're looking for a hands-on AI Operations Leader to help us move faster, reduce operational drag, and unlock leverage across the company.

You are the hands-on builder, problem solver, and strategist driving AI adoption and impact across Assort’s business teams. You'll partner closely with GTM, Post-Sales, Agent PM, Product, and Engineering to identify inefficiencies, build intelligent workflows, and drive adoption across teams. You won't just be solving problems in isolation; you'll help define how Assort becomes an AI-first company, building the systems, standards, and internal tooling that compound over time.

What You'll Do

Strategy and prioritization

  • Own a prioritized AI roadmap sourced from department needs, leadership priorities, and Champion network signal; validate with prototypes before committing build time

  • Set the operating model for what gets built centrally vs. embedded in each function

Build and ship

  • Design and ship AI-powered workflows, automations, and internal tools from concept to production to iteration

  • Mix custom code, APIs, and no/low-code platforms based on what ships fastest without compromising rigor

Standards and tooling

  • Define agent and skill lifecycle and foundational assets (prompt libraries, SOPs, templates, integration patterns), extending GTM's centralization work into company-wide standards

  • Standardize how we build, evaluate, and scale AI internally with rigor on security, quality, and reliability

  • Administer the platform tools (Claude, Notion AI, n8n, Zapier, and more) and bring in new tooling where there are real capability gaps

Cross-functional partnership

  • Run the AI Champion & Leader network across non-technical departments, surfacing wins, clearing blockers, and routing feedback back into the roadmap

  • Sit one-on-one with each department lead to shape their quarterly AI goals and sequence central work to accelerate them

Enablement and culture

  • Run continuous AI upskilling: foundations courses, department-specific deep dives, office hours, internal content, and new-hire onboarding

  • Own the company hackathon, in-team mini-hackathons, and reporting that tracks the impact of what you are shipping

What We're Looking For

  • 4-6 years of applicable experience in AI operations, technical revops/bizops, GTM engineering, forward deployed engineering, sales engineering, product, product ops, software engineering, consulting, or as a founder of an early startup.

  • At least 2 years focused on AI/automation tooling in a fast-moving company

  • Proven track record shipping AI-powered workflows and internal tools end-to-end β€” not just scoping them; you can point to specific systems you built that are still running in production

  • Hands-on proficiency with the modern AI and automation stack: LLM APIs (Claude, Gemini, Chatgpt), workflow platforms (n8n, Zapier), and no/low-code tooling; you know when to write code and when not to

  • Strong prompt engineering fundamentals β€” you've built and maintained prompt libraries, evaluated output quality systematically, and know how to move from a working prototype to a reliable production asset

  • Sharp prioritization instincts; you've managed a roadmap with more demand than capacity and made defensible calls about what to build centrally vs. hand to teams

  • Experience running cross-functional programs with non-technical stakeholders β€” you can sit with a department lead, extract the real problem from the stated one, and translate it into a scoped build
