Principal, Strategic Partnerships (Private Equity)

At Assort Health, we believe healthcare should feel effortless and connected — quick answers, clear communication, and seamless access to care. That’s why we’re building a new foundation for how patients and providers connect, driven by AI, built to embrace the complexities of healthcare, and tailored to each provider’s unique needs.

Assort is the most comprehensive patient experience platform powered by specialty-specific agentic AI. Assort’s omnichannel AI agents seamlessly integrate with EHR/PMS and complicated provider preferences to eliminate lengthy hold times and inefficiencies that stand in the way of patients getting the care they need.

Since launching in 2023, Assort has managed over 150M+ patient interactions, slashing average hold times from 11 minutes to 1 minute. Our platform now handles calls for thousands of providers with 98%+ resolution rates and 99% scheduling accuracy. Patient satisfaction averages 4.5/5 over 52K reviews, and we’ve achieved 20× revenue growth in 2025. We’re scaling rapidly and expanding adoption across the entire healthcare industry.

We are hiring a Principal, Strategic Partnerships (Private Equity) to build and scale one of Assort’s most important growth channels.

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.

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.

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