Abridge was founded in 2018 with the mission of powering deeper understanding in healthcare. Our AI-powered platform was purpose-built for medical conversations, improving clinical documentation efficiencies while enabling clinicians to focus on what matters most—their patients.

Our enterprise-grade technology transforms patient-clinician conversations into structured clinical notes in real-time, with deep EMR integrations. Powered by Linked Evidence and our purpose-built, auditable AI, we are the only company that maps AI-generated summaries to ground truth, helping providers quickly trust and verify the output. As pioneers in generative AI for healthcare, we are setting the industry standards for the responsible deployment of AI across health systems.

We are a growing team of practicing MDs, AI scientists, PhDs, creatives, technologists, and engineers working together to empower people and make care make more sense.

The Role

Abridge is hiring a designer with hands-on experience building inspiring digital products and services. At Abridge, you will work within a crack team of AI researchers, software engineers, clinicians, and creatives to build AI-powered products that address the needs of patients and doctors. You will immerse yourself in clinical workflows to understand stakeholder needs and shape your insights into compelling mobile and web experiences that liberate clinicians from the tedious clerical work that plagues modern healthcare. In your first assignment, you will likely play a key role in an initiative to extend Abridge’s product deeper into the after-visit workflow, addressing revenue cycle management and keeping this part of the product in harmony with Abridge’s documentation generation.   

What You’ll Do

• Collaborate with an interdisciplinary product delivery team to define and scope new features for Abridge’s products. 

• Create a full range of design artifacts to communicate the product vision and user interactions (e.g. user flows, wireframes, production-ready UI).

• Contribute to Abridge’s expanding design system and component libraries. 

• Engage in product discovery, conducting interviews and shadowing sessions with doctors and other clinicians to uncover both how they use Abridge today, dream of using it in the future, and exciting possibilities that they haven’t yet dreamt of.

• Combine insights from user feedback and analytics to identify trends and quickly iterate on designs.

• Work in lock-step with engineering, machine learning researchers, and QA to understand technical constraints, address edge cases, and ensure that shipped features match your designs.

What You’ll Bring

• You have 5+ years of experience designing and shipping digital products (web & mobile). 

• You (likely) hold a bachelor’s or master’s degree in design (or related field).

• Whether you’ve worked in healthcare or engaged with it as a patient or caregiver, you are fired up by the chance to change it for the better. 

• You know your way around Figma in your sleep. 

• You have a perfectionist’s eye for crisp interactions and visuals, but a pragmatist’s drive to ship products on time. 

• You’re an empathetic communicator with a broad toolkit and know how to get your points across in-person or remotely.

• You are comfortable embracing ambiguity and energized by exploring divergent approaches to problems.

Bonus points if

• You have past experience designing for a wide variety of media types, particularly audio. 

• Consumer mobile apps are your bread and butter; you have a strong sense of what will be ‘sticky’ and what will just be a sticking point.

• You’re fascinated by the future of social networks, user communities, and UGC.

We value people who want to learn new things, and we know that great team members might not perfectly match a job description. If you’re interested in the role but aren’t sure whether or not you’re a good fit, we’d still like to hear from you.

Life at Abridge

At Abridge, we’re driven by our mission to bring understanding and follow-through to every medical conversation. Our culture is founded on doing things the “inverse” way in a legacy system—focusing on patients, instead of the system; focusing on outcomes, instead of billing; and focusing on the end-user experience, instead of a hospital administrator’s mandate.

Abridgers are engineers, scientists, designers, and health policy experts from a diverse set of backgrounds—an experiment in alchemy that helps us transform an industry dominated by EHRs and enterprise into a consumer-driven experience, one recording at a time. We believe in strong ideas, loosely held, and place a high premium on a growth mindset. We push each other to grow and expose each other to the latest in our respective fields. Whether it’s holding a PhD-level deep dive into understanding fairness and underlying bias in machine learning models, debating the merits of a Scandinavian design philosophy in our UI/UX, or writing responses for Medicare rules to influence U.S. health policy, we prioritize sharing our findings across the team and helping each other be successful.

Diversity & Inclusion

Abridge is an equal opportunity employer. Diversity and inclusion is at the core of what we do. We actively welcome applicants from all backgrounds (including but not limited to race, gender, educational background, and sexual orientation).
