Strategic Partnerships Director

About Nabla

We are a team of entrepreneurs, clinicians and engineers committed to bringing back joy to the practice of medicine.

Together with a community of clinician innovators, we’ve harnessed the best of machine learning science to develop Nabla: the leading AI assistant that’s restoring the human connection at the heart of healthcare. By streamlining clinical documentation, Nabla is helping clinicians focus on what matters most - patient care. Today, over 100,000+ clinicians across 130+ healthcare organizations trust Nabla to support how they deliver care every day.

We’re at the start of an ambitious journey: Ambient listening, dictation, coding, and command capabilities are all converging into a proactive assistant that intuitively streamlines clinical and financial workflows.

Backed by a recent $70M Series C, we’re hiring to build the next generation of clinical AI and improve the lives of clinicians and patients everywhere.

This is a great time to join us!

The Role

To support our continued growth, Nabla is expanding its team and seeking a Strategic Partnership Director to own the partnerships that make Nabla more successful and help us grow faster. That covers two classes of partner: the product partners whose capabilities extend our roadmap beyond what we build ourselves, and the EHR and platform partners whose ecosystems we sell and integrate into. You will own the full lifecycle of the partnership, from identifying the right partners to negotiating terms and launching integrated capabilities that drive adoption and revenue. You will also support our corporate development work on the buy side, monitoring the adjacent space and building key relationships.

Responsibilities

Market Monitoring: Maintain a live view of the adjacent categories, including clinical decision support, chart intelligence, prior auth, and virtual care platforms. Bring a written point of view on what we should build, partner for, or decline.

Relationship Ownership: Own the executive relationship with each partner across both classes (Product and EHRs), from first conversation through the life of the partnership. Build the influence that gets Nabla into the rooms and the programs we are currently not in, including preferred-partner status, earlier API access, and better platform economics.

Product Partner Sourcing and Strategy: Originate and qualify partner conversations aligned with the product roadmap and strategy. Define the right construct per partner, whether referral, resell, bring-your-own-licence, joint go to market, or integration only.

Build the Product Partnership Playbook : Establish standards, scalable and repeatable processes and patterns for how we partner from a commercial and engagement perspective.

Commercial Negotiation: Lead pricing and terms with our Finance team, including referral fees, minimums, integration fees, and pilot carve-outs. Run the redline cycle and the signature path with Legal, InfoSec, and Finance.

Go to Market, Launch and Performance Tracking : Own the launch plan with Product, Engineering, Product Marketing, and Customer Success, including alpha site selection, success criteria, the general availability, joint messaging, and sales enablement.

Corporate Development, Buy Side: Maintain the target map for adjacent players, source and qualify targets, build the investment thesis and valuation view, and coordinate diligence. Bring CEO, Finance, and leadership in once a target is real.

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Product, Engineering, Marketing, Legal, and Customer Success to keep partnership commitments aligned with what we can actually ship and support.

Industry Presence: Build the strategic contact and meeting plan for the events that matter, including JPM
