- Collaborate with Product and Marketing teams to shape go-to-market strategies, ensuring alignment with the needs and trends of the healthcare market.
- Build, manage, qualify, and close deals within a rolling 12-month sales pipeline.
- Identify and utilize appropriate contract vehicles to penetrate specific clients.
- Engage cross-functional SoundHound resources (Engineering, Marketing, Proposal Development, Finance) at the right stages of the sales cycle.
- Utilize data and analytics to enhance sales strategy and support proactive decision-making.
- Partner with the Customer Success team to create and execute account growth strategies that increase customer lifetime value.

- Proven ability to manage a high-volume pipeline (20+ concurrent opportunities) and own the full sales cycle—from prospecting to presenting to C-level decision-makers.
- Deep understanding of current industry trends, specifically value-based care models, health systems operations, and digital health innovation.
- Strong working knowledge of Contact Center tools and processes, including CCaaS platforms (e.g., Genesys, Five9, NICE).
