Assort Health
Engineering Manager
As an Engineering Manager at Assort Health, you'll split your time between hands-on IC work (designing, coding, and shipping core systems) and people/team leadership. In partnership with Ops (our customer-insight conduit), you'll enable your team to execute on their goals and scale to deliver the best patient and client experience. Your top priorities are 1) deep technical ownership and 2) high-EQ team leadership. You'll be leading the team responsible for our new product, AssortOS. AssortOS is our CRM and workflow platform powered by our industry leading, safe, specialty turned, multimodal, patient-facing AI agents. Now: GenAI patient engagement; Next: care navigation & payer-call automation. What You'll Do
Extreme Ownership & Collaboration (~50%) Design and deliver critical AssortOS services while balancing scalability, performance, and security.
Collaborate and translate customer insights from Ops into clear technical requirements, breaking down complex problems into scoped deliverables that move the needle for patients and providers.
Team Delivery & Execution (~30%) Own team-level OKRs: manage scope, unblock engineers, and coordinate cross-team dependencies.
Rapidly ship MVPs and drive continuous improvement on performance, reliability, and user delight.
Establish and uphold engineering best practices: architecture reviews, CI/CD pipelines, observability, and on-call rotations.
People Development (~20%) Mentor and grow a team from 4 to 10 engineers: give regular and actionable feedback.
Champion and model Assort's values by driving high-velocity execution with empathy.
Note: As your team scales, the percentage of IC work will decrease while responsibilities around People Development and Management will grow. What We're Looking For
5+ years of software engineering experience, with 2+ years in a technical-lead or engineering manager role.
Demonstrated ability to partner with non-engineering functions
Strong systems-thinking: you balance technical scalability, time-to-market, and user value under uncertainty.
Exceptional communicator who can influence engineers, operators, and executives alike.
Comfortable and proficient at wearing both Manager + IC hats
Familiar with AI agent space and complicated, deep integrations w/bespoke systems
Passion for Assort's mission of improving patient access through innovative technology.
Benefits & Perks for Assorties
Competitive Compensation
Including salary and employee stock options so you share in our success.
Lifelong Learning
Annual budget for professional development, plus training opportunities to help you grow.
Office Setup Stipend
We'll outfit your in-office workspace so comfy as it's productive.
Top-Tier Health Coverage
Medical, dental, and vision insurance, because your health comes first.
Unlimited PTO

Meals & Snacks
Lunch, dinner, and snack breaks that fuel great ideas.
Wellness Stipend
Your physical and mental well-being matters, and we've got a yearly stipend to prove it.
401(k)
