About Distyl AI

Distyl AI develops production-grade AI systems to power core operational workflows for Fortune 500 companies. Powered by a strategic partnership with OpenAI, in-house software accelerators, and deep enterprise AI expertise, we deliver working AI systems with rapid time to value – within a quarter.

Our products have helped Fortune 500 customers across diverse industries, from insurance and CPG to non-profits. As part of our team, you will help companies identify, build, and realize value from their GenAI investments, often for the first time. We are customer-centric, working backward from the customer’s problem and holding ourselves accountable for creating both financial impact and improving the lives of end-users.

Distyl is led by proven leaders from top companies like Palantir and Apple and is backed by Lightspeed, Khosla, Coatue, Dell Technologies Capital, Nat Friedman (Former CEO of Git Hub), Brad Gerstner (Founder and CEO of Altimeter), and board members of over a dozen Fortune 500 companies.

What We Are Looking For

As a Growth Operator, you'll report directly to senior leadership and play a pivotal role in both closing new business and ensuring customer outcomes within healthcare. You'll work cross-functionally to turn opportunities into long-term wins, helping Fortune 500 healthcare clients—including major health systems, health IT vendors, payors, and pharma companies—realize the value of AI in their most critical workflows.

This role requires intellectual agility, strong interpersonal skills, and the ability to operate in uncharted territory within the complex healthcare landscape. You'll need to manage multiple priorities simultaneously, adapt quickly to regulatory and operational nuances, and maintain clarity under pressure.

The right candidate thrives at the intersection of strategy and execution, bringing a mix of consulting discipline, product intuition, healthcare domain knowledge, and entrepreneurial drive.
