Who We're Looking For
You’ll thrive in this role if you:
Are passionate about reversing the autoimmune epidemic and helping people live healthier lives through functional nutrition
Have experience delivering care that goes beyond traditional approaches, focusing on whole-body health rather than food pyramid guidelines
Are curious, open to growth, and able to provide and receive feedback constructively
Are excited to work in an innovative startup environment with autonomy and creativity
Are someone with a passion for holistic health and willingness to embrace supplements, lab testing, and advanced care techniques
Familiarity with autoimmune conditions and ability to assess and recommend personalized interventions, including diets, supplements, and testing
Growth-oriented mindset, with a curiosity to learn and adapt in a rapidly evolving field
You might not enjoy working with us if you:
Like working in a more established, structured environment. You'll help build our company's culture, processes, and ways of working
Don't like working with ambiguity—since we're an early-stage startup, projects and priorities shift
Are looking for lots of guidance in your role—while our team members have a ton of expertise to share, we'll also be looking to you to take ownership and work autonomously
Like your work to be well-defined from the get-go. We'll be looking to you to bring your own experience and perspective to help us do the right things and flag if you think we should do things differently. You will have the opportunity to bring creativity and ownership to your projects
Prefer working only in person. We are a remote company and will have in-person events every year, but will not require employees to be in an office every day
What You'll Do:
Collaborate with members to assess health concerns and provide personalized care plans using a functional nutrition approach
Leverage functional lab testing to evaluate nutrient deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, and gut health, tailoring interventions to address root causes
Guide members in adopting sustainable, anti-inflammatory diets, addressing lifestyle factors like stress, sleep, and movement
Participate in specialized training to build expertise in functional nutrition and autoimmune protocols
Work cross-functionally to integrate WellTheory’s care model into the broader healthcare system

About WellTheory:
Autoimmune disease is one of the fastest-growing and most costly categories in healthcare today. It impacts over 50 million Americans and costs the system more than $160 billion annually. It’s also one of the most misunderstood. For too long, patients have been dismissed, unheard, and left without answers. WellTheory is on a mission to change that. We’re building something we wish had existed years ago on our own journeys — care that’s truly personalized, proactive, and rooted in compassion.
This is an exciting moment to join our team. We’ve raised $26.2M in funding and are backed by top-tier investors like General Catalyst, Accel, 7wire, and Box Group. In the past year, we’ve grown 10x in membership and 5x in revenue.
At WellTheory, we believe that anything can be achieved through pure will, determination, and grit and value teammates with a similar mentality. If that sounds like you we hope you’ll join us
