Job description

Davie, United States | Posted on 01/22/2026

At Barkera™, we're driving a movement to elevate pet ownership through education, innovation, and industry-wide collaboration. Our mission is to bring unity to a fragmented pet industry by connecting trusted experts—from veterinarians and trainers to breeders and shelters—to support pet owners with reliable knowledge and tools.

As a member of our fast-moving, passionate team, you’ll help reshape an industry and improve the lives of pets and their people. We’re here to build lasting change—and we’re just getting started.

Please note: In addition to roles within Barkera™, we also recruit for opportunities with our trusted Partner Companies. These positions are managed by separate teams, but share our broader mission of making a positive impact to our world.

Job Description

Barkera is seeking a Board-Certified Veterinary Nutritionist (DACVIM – Nutrition / ACVN) to join our expert network and contribute to the development, review, and dissemination of advanced, evidence-based nutritional education for pet owners and professionals.

This role is ideal for a nutrition specialist who is passionate about:

• Preventative and therapeutic nutrition
• Nutrigenomics and metabolic health
• Translating complex science into owner-facing education
• Shaping the future of proactive pet health through nutrition

Opportunities are available for remote participation, with select in‑person engagements for events, panels, workshops, research collaboration, or strategic initiatives.

This is a non‑clinical, advisory and educational role, not a replacement for individual veterinary‑patient‑client relationships (VCPR).

Requirements

As a Board-Certified Veterinary Nutritionist with Barkera, you may contribute in the following ways:

Education & Content Development

Develop and review evidence‑based nutrition content across multiple formats, including:

• Long‑form educational articles and guides
• Video, audio, and webinar‑based instruction
• Courses, diagrams, and clinical nutrition explainers
• Nutritional frameworks for different life stages and health conditions

Translate advanced concepts such as:

• Nutrigenomics and gene–diet interactions
• Metabolic health and disease prevention
• Macronutrient and micronutrient balance
• Functional vs. non‑functional ingredients
• Breed‑specific and size‑specific nutritional considerations

Advisory & Curriculum Support

• Structured nutrition curricula and learning pathways
• Educational assessments, quizzes, and retention tools
• Provide expert review of nutrition‑related content to ensure:
• Scientific accuracy
• Alignment with ACVN and veterinary best practices
• Ethical, non‑promotional, evidence‑based messaging

Thought Leadership & Collaboration

• Expert panels, roundtables, and live Q&A sessions
• Cross‑disciplinary collaboration with veterinarians, breeders, trainers, and scientists
• Strategic discussions related to nutrition innovation, research priorities, and education standards

Support Barkera’s mission to educate pet owners on:

• How to discuss nutrition effectively with their veterinarian
• Avoiding misinformation and unsupported dietary trends

Areas of Expertise We Value

• Preventative nutrition and longevity
• Therapeutic diets for chronic disease
• Puppy growth and developmental nutrition
• Large and giant breed nutrition
• Reproductive, gestational, and neonatal nutrition
• Geriatric nutrition and cognitive aging
• Nutritional risk assessment and formulation analysis
• Raw, fresh, home‑prepared, and commercial diet evaluation (evidence‑based)

Qualifications & Requirements

• Diplomate, American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (Nutrition) (DACVIM – Nutrition / ACVN Board‑Certified)
• DVM or VMD degree with active veterinary licensure (or eligibility where applicable)
• Demonstrated expertise in clinical nutrition with the ability to communicate complex concepts clearly
• Strong interest in education, prevention, and owner empowerment
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Comfortable contributing through digital platforms and remote collaboration tools
• Ability to work independently while contributing to a multidisciplinary expert team
• Open to professional dialogue, peer review, and constructive scientific discussion
• Teaching, writing, speaking, or curriculum‑development experience strongly preferred

Engagement Format

Remote: Content development, curriculum design, expert review, virtual panels, and education

In‑Person (Optional):

• Live workshops or panels
• Industry events or summits
• Research or strategic collaboration sessions
• Media or educational filming opportunities

Participation level and schedule are flexible and self‑directed.

As part of the Barkera Expert Network, you will receive:

• Flexible remote and in‑person opportunities based on your availability
• A platform to extend your impact nationally and globally
• Coaching and mentorship programs supporting professional growth
• Opportunities to responsibly showcase your expertise and thought leadership
• Access to deeply discounted Barkera products and services
• Exclusive Private Travel Membership, including pet travel benefits
• Discounts across 40+ “Powered By Barkera” technologies to support your professional endeavors
• Direct collaboration with Barkera leadership and other top‑tier industry experts
• Optional participation in paid engagements, research initiatives, and revenue‑sharing opportunities
