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

We are hiring a Principal, Strategic Partnerships (Private Equity) to build and scale one of Assort’s most important growth channels. This is a high-impact, external-facing role at the intersection of private equity, enterprise sales, and operator-led GTM strategy. You will own relationships with healthcare-focused PE firms and translate those relationships into a repeatable pipeline of high-quality opportunities across their portfolio companies.

LOCATION: REMOTE (SAN FRANCISCO OR NEW YORK PREFERRED)

WHY THIS ROLE

This is a rare opportunity to sit at the intersection of private equity, AI, and healthcare transformation—and to build a high-leverage growth channel from the ground up.

You’ll work directly with our founders and executive leadership, engage with top-tier investors, and play a central role in shaping how AI is adopted across healthcare organizations at scale.

This role is designed for someone who wants ownership, visibility, and the chance to build something substantial

Your mandate is twofold:

1. Drive near-term revenue by sourcing and converting PE-generated opportunities

2. Build a scalable playbook that establishes Assort as the preferred AI partner across healthcare-focused PE firms

This is not a traditional partnerships role. You will operate as a hybrid of enterprise seller, strategic operator, and relationship builder.

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

BUILD & OWN PRIVATE EQUITY RELATIONSHIPS

- Develop and manage relationships with leading healthcare-focused PE firms, including partners, operating teams, and value creation leaders

- Position Assort as a strategic lever for revenue growth, cost optimization, and operational scalability across portfolio companies

- Serve as a trusted advisor on how AI can drive value across multi-site provider organizations

DRIVE PORTFOLIO-LEVEL GTM MOTION

- Generate qualified pipeline by securing warm introductions into portfolio companies

- Partner with PE firms to establish preferred vendor status and, where applicable, negotiate portfolio-wide agreements

- Build repeatable frameworks for identifying, prioritizing, and activating opportunities across PE portfolios

OWN PIPELINE & OPPORTUNITY GENERATION

- Carry a quota focused on pipeline creation and sales-qualified opportunities

- Source and qualify deals, then partner closely with Specialty-focused Account Executives to drive them to close

- Lead strategic negotiations directly with PE firms when required

OPERATE CROSS-FUNCTIONALLY

- Coordinate across a growing sales team covering specialty providers and health systems

- Partner with leadership on go-to-market strategy, pricing models, and packaging for PE-backed organizations

- Provide market feedback to inform product and positioning; be “the voice of our PE partners”

BUILD FOR SCALE

- Systematize learnings into a repeatable, scalable PE GTM playbook

- Define the long-term strategy for Assort’s private equity channel

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR:

A high-caliber operator who thrives in ambiguous, high-ownership environments and is excited to own both strategy and execution.

CORE EXPERIENCE

- 8–10+ years of experience in healthcare private equity, investment banking (healthcare), or a closely related field

- Deep understanding of healthcare delivery, including clinical, operational, and financial drivers across provider organizations

- Demonstrated ability to build relationships with senior stakeholders, including PE partners and C-suite executives

EXECUTION & OWNERSHIP

- Proven track record of owning outcomes, not just strategy

- Comfortable carrying a quota tied to pipeline and opportunity generation

- Excited to refine and scale a GTM motion

COMMERCIAL & INTERPERSONAL STRENGTH

- Exceptional communicator with the ability to tailor messaging across audiences (PE partners, operators, internal teams)

- High EQ—skilled at reading rooms, building trust, and navigating complex stakeholder dynamics

- Strong executive presence and attention to detail

OPERATING MINDSET

- Bias for action and speed; thrives in fast-paced, evolving environments

- Highly analytical and metrics-driven

- Naturally curious, intellectually honest, and principled in approach

NICE TO HAVE

- MBA from a top program

- Experience working with or deploying AI solutions in healthcare


WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

- Assort becomes a trusted AI partner to top healthcare PE firms

- Demonstrate a repeatable engine for sourcing and converting PE-driven opportunities
