About the role
About Abridge
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
Abridge is looking for an experienced Compensation Lead to own our compensation strategy, building a competitive, scalable framework that helps us attract, motivate, and reward our people as we grow. This is a foundational hire for our People Operations team.
We're looking for someone who moves fast, takes ownership, and makes sound decisions backed by data and experience, someone who stays ahead of the market rather than reacting to it.
What You’ll Do
Conduct market benchmarking and modeling, using the right peer groups, to support compensation program design and decision-making.
Set the cadence for refreshing our compensation bands and own that process end-to-end, so our ranges never lag behind the market.
Bring a strong, well-informed point of view on compensation, including executive comp and frameworks
Turn compensation data into a story leaders can act on. Clearly and confidently explaining the reasoning behind pay decisions and structure to executives and hiring managers.
Advise on sales and other GTM compensation design, including OTE structuring.
Partner with Finance and Recruiting to design and govern salary structures, incentive plans, and exception criteria, and own the clean flow of that data to Finance for budgeting.
Build the frameworks, tools, and governance we need to scale compensation as Abridge grows and our programs mature.
Proactively track market movement and trends in the AI space, so we're never caught off guard.
What You’ll Bring
6+ years of compensation experience, ideally at a high-growth tech or AI company, with real ownership of program build, not just an analytical role.
Deep Excel fluency (modeling, VLOOKUP, INDEX/MATCH, etc) and the ability to turn messy data into insights the business can actually use.
A track record of building benchmarking approaches and peer groups that hold up under scrutiny, and the judgment to know when the standard playbook doesn't fit.
Strong fluency in sales compensation: OTE design, bonus structuring, and the tradeoffs that come with them.
Command of compensation fundamentals such as job matching, market pricing, leveling and job architecture, and cyclical programs
Experience designing and owning compensation and equity frameworks, including at the executive level, across public and private company structures.
Excellent communication skills: the ability to turn dense analysis into something any business leader can understand and act on.
