About Us

Abacus Insights is transforming how data works for health plans. Our mission is simple: make healthcare data usable, so the people responsible for care and cost decisions can act faster, with confidence.

We help health plans break down data silos to create a single, trusted data foundation. That foundation powers better decisions—so plans can improve outcomes, reduce waste, and deliver better experiences for members and providers alike. Backed by $100M from top investors, we’re tackling big challenges in an industry that’s ready for change. Our platform enables GenAI use cases by delivering clean, connected, and reliable healthcare data to support automation, prioritization, and decision workflows—and it’s why we are leading the way.

Our innovation begins with people. We are bold, curious, and collaborative—because the best ideas come from working together. We embrace the thoughtful use of AI and automation to drive innovation and efficiency, and we look for individuals who are curious and adaptable—those excited to leverage emerging technologies to enhance how we work—while keeping human insight, connection, and our clients at the center of every decision.

About the Role
Abacus Insights is looking for a Channel Account Manager to strengthen the ecosystem of partners that extends our reach and amplifies our impact. This is a high-visibility role at the intersection of strategy, enablement, and growth—managing relationships with consulting firms and systems integrators, ISVs embedded in our solution, and large technology platforms like Databricks, Microsoft Azure, and AWS.
You'll align incentives, run co-sell motions, and turn these partnerships into a reliable pipeline of qualified opportunities for Abacus. Once a lead or opportunity is identified, you'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with our sales team to help close it—then build the flywheel so it happens again and again.

Excellent communication skills, with the ability to distill complex ideas for executive audiences
