Our Mission Our mission is to make exceptional healthcare accessible anytime, anywhere, for everyone. 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 50M+ 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 4.4/5, and we’ve achieved 11× revenue growth since Q4 2024. We’re scaling rapidly and expanding adoption across the entire healthcare industry.
About The Role We are seeking our first‑ever Head of Security — an individual contributor who will establish and lead Assort’s entire security function from the ground up. This role requires a hands‑on leader who thrives in fast‑paced, lean environments and is passionate about safeguarding healthcare data while enabling rapid innovation.
The Head of Security will own the full security lifecycle — from application and infrastructure protection to compliance, risk management, and incident response — with complete autonomy to design and implement a scalable, AI‑driven security strategy.
What You’ll Own Security Strategy & Architecture
Design, implement, and maintain Assort’s security posture across application, infrastructure, cloud, and data environments.
Develop a long‑term security roadmap aligned with company growth and regulatory requirements.
Risk Assessment & Threat Management
Conduct proactive threat modeling, vulnerability scanning, and penetration testing.
Develop and execute pragmatic remediation plans to address identified risks.
Compliance & Governance
Establish lean, effective security guidelines and ensure adherence to HIPAA, BAA, and other applicable regulations.
Lead third‑party vendor security reviews and ongoing risk monitoring.
Incident Response & Recovery
Develop and own incident detection, response, and post‑mortem processes.
Drive rapid resolution of security incidents and integrate lessons learned into ongoing improvements.
Security Automation & AI Enablement
Leverage AI‑driven tools and automation platforms to improve detection, reduce manual workload, and accelerate remediation.
Continuously evaluate and integrate emerging security technologies.
Security Culture & Awareness
Act as the internal security evangelist, raising awareness across teams without introducing unnecessary bureaucracy.
Provide ongoing security training and guidance to employees.
What We’re Looking For
Proven track record of independently managing security functions in startup or high‑growth environments.
Strong expertise across cloud, application, infrastructure, and data security domains.
Hands‑on experience with incident management and post‑incident analysis.
Comfort with leveraging AI tools to enhance security operations.
Ability to balance pragmatic solutions with long‑term strategic planning.
Preferred
Direct experience with HIPAA compliance and healthcare data protection.
Familiarity with generative AI systems, voice AI workflows, or healthcare technology platforms.
Broad technical skill set paired with the ability to go deep in priority areas.
What’s In It For You
High impact: Be the sole architect of Assort’s security strategy; your fingerprints will be all over our foundation.
Maximum autonomy: No red tape, no layers: just you, your initiative, and room to execute.
AI‑friendly environment: You’ll work alongside our AI‑centric engineering team, embedding security in cutting‑edge tooling.
