Job description

Live it Up is an early-stage, high-growth startup rewriting the script on healthy living. We see health holistically - more than just the absence of illness. It's about vibrant bodies and minds. We're on a mission to give nutrition its color back and make a healthy lifestyle everyone can lead. Our secret? Natural supplement powders crafted from real superfoods. Enter our best seller: Super Greens, designed to bridge the nutrition gap faced by 90% of American adults who are not eating the official daily recommended dosage of greens that powers a healthy diet.

Live it Up is looking for a Quality & Compliance Lead to ensure everything we do, from product development to marketing, is built on a rock-solid foundation of quality, safety, and regulatory integrity. If you’re a detailed problem solver who thrives in cross-functional roles, this is the role for you!

What You’ll Do:

• Lead FSQA Programs: Own food safety and quality systems across the supply chain, including HACCP, cGMPs, supplier management, testing protocols, and customer complaint resolution

• Own Regulatory Compliance: Ensure we’re compliant with all relevant laws and guidance (FDA, FTC, DSHEA, Prop 65, ADA, and beyond) and keep product documentation, shelf life, label reviews, and testing standards in line.

• Review Claims and Marketing: Partner with Marketing to review claims and content, create clear approval processes, and maintain compliance guidelines

• Document and Train: Build SOPs, training resources, and escalation paths to make compliance a shared language across teams

• Be the Compliance Braintrust: Know when to bring in external experts, or legal counsel and how to get the answers we need to make smart, compliant decisions - you don’t have to be an FDA lawyer, but you know when to call one!

Who You Are:

• You’re the go-to person for any and all questions related to compliance, regulatory, and food safety

• You’ve worked across FSQA and regulatory areas and know how to simplify complex rules into clear, actionable processes

• You’re calm under pressure, fluent in spreadsheets and systems, and not afraid to chase down the details

• You work well across functions like Product, People, Marketing, and Operations/Supply Chain

• You seamlessly manage third-party co-manufacturers, consultants, or legal partners

• Documentation and project management are second nature to you

Bonus Points If:

You’ve worked at a high-growth DTC supplement or food brand
You’ve navigated ADA, Prop 65, or international labeling requirements

We care more about practical know-how than formal titles. If you have experience implementing a top-tier compliance or regulatory process, we want to hear from you!
