CEO & Co-Founder of
Bunkerhill Health (2018)
About

Nishith Khandwala (Nish) is the CEO and Co-Founder of Bunkerhill Health, a Sequoia and Khosla Ventures-backed agentic AI company on a mission to accelerate the creation and adoption of AI in healthcare.

Before founding

In 2017, Nish was a Stanford computer science student and researcher at Stanford's AIMI center, where he worked on validating and translating medical imaging AI algorithms into clinical practice, sparking his vision for a faster path from research to patient care.

Founder Insights

Nish recognized that healthcare AI was stalling not due to lack of innovation, but due to fragmented adoption, leading him to build a unified platform so hospitals would not need to work with dozens of vendors to solve dozens of problems.

Experience

Under Nish's leadership, Bunkerhill raised $55M across Seed, Series A, and Series B rounds from top investors including Sequoia Capital, Khosla Ventures, Felicis, Optum Ventures, and Y Combinator, and grew revenue 20-fold in a single year.

Scale & Impact

Bunkerhill's Carebricks platform is now deployed at 15 leading health systems including Cleveland Clinic, Mayo Clinic, and Intermountain Health, with FDA-cleared AI agents that have already triggered life-saving interventions such as an emergency triple bypass, cut nephrology wait times by over 50%, and addressed urgent lung findings 80% faster.
