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. We have offices located in the Mission District in San Francisco, the SoHo neighborhood of New York, and East Liberty in Pittsburgh.
The Role
As a Staff Mixed Methods User Researcher at Abridge, you will help shape the future of AI-powered healthcare by deeply understanding the people, workflows, and systems our products support.

Healthcare is complex, high-stakes, and deeply human. You’ll bring clarity to that complexity by studying how clinicians, care teams, administrators, and health systems work today, and where AI can meaningfully reduce burden, improve trust, and create better outcomes.
