Job description

Building Healthcare That Remembers

Every time you call a doctor's office, the system forgets you the moment you hang up. You wait on hold, explain everything from scratch, get bounced between lines, and hope someone follows up. Everyone has felt this. No one should have to.

At Assort Health, we're building one continuous conversation for every patient. An AI agent that knows who you are, remembers how you like to be reached, and carries that context from your first symptom to your full recovery. What began as the first voice AI agent to schedule a specialty appointment has become the largest proprietary specialty dataset in healthcare: 285 million patient interactions, 62,000 care protocols, 1.6 million decision pathways.

We went from 15 people in 2025 and will cross 250 by the end of 2026. Revenue is up 20x in 15 months and we've raised $222 million, including a recent $120 million Series C at a $1.2 billion valuation. We've also been named to the Forbes Cloud 100 and the 2026 Enterprise Tech 30 as the only healthcare AI company on the list!

About the Role

We're on the hunt for driven and scrappy product-minded engineering interns to join our team at an exciting stage of our startup's journey. If you're eager to build products, tackle challenging problems, and see your work reach real users, this is an opportunity to make a significant impact. You'll gain hands-on experience in a dynamic startup environment, working with cutting-edge generative AI and voice/transcription models and technologies.

As part of our engineering team, you'll work alongside experienced engineers to take ideas from zero to one. You'll own meaningful projects, contribute to product decisions, and learn what it takes to build and scale software for healthcare professionals. If you're a self-starter who likes to experiment, figure things out, and ship, you'll fit right in. You'll have plenty of autonomy, with guidance and feedback from the team as you navigate new challenges.

The anticipated dates for this role are January 11th - April 30th.

What You'll Do

• Work closely with our engineering team to build features and products from the ground up.


• Own a scoped project from initial design through implementation, testing, and deployment, with support from experienced engineers.


• Explore and apply generative AI and voice/transcription technologies to solve real problems for healthcare professionals.


• Participate actively in product, design, and development discussions, contributing fresh ideas and perspectives.


• Learn from healthcare professionals and translate their feedback into thoughtful product improvements.


• Help develop secure, scalable software that meets our HIPAA compliance and security requirements.

What We're Looking For

• Pursuing a bachelor's or master's degree in computer science or a related field


• Strong engineering fundamentals and experience building software through coursework, personal projects, open-source contributions, or previous internships.


• Strong technical problem-solving skills and comfort working through ambiguity in a fast-moving startup environment.


• Willingness to wear multiple hats, from understanding user needs and designing features to writing code, testing, and debugging.


• Curiosity, openness to feedback, and a willingness to learn through rapid iteration and experimentation.


• Bonus points for experience with React, TypeScript, or Go; building or deploying AI/LLM applications; or working with evaluation frameworks, agent tooling, RAG pipelines, and prompt engineering.
