About Us

Health is the most important thing in life, and the American healthcare system is completely broken - poor outcomes, high cost, bad patient experience. We're building a new system from the ground up.

About Us

Health is the most important thing in life, and the American healthcare system is completely broken - poor outcomes, high cost, bad patient experience. We're building a new system from the ground up.

Our mission is to improve people’s health by making it easy to live a healthy lifestyle.

Nourish is the country's largest dietitian-led metabolic health clinic. We’re an AI-native digital health system matching patients with 10,000+ Registered Dietitians, physicians, medications, lab testing, and AI agents to deliver insurance-covered care across all 50 states. Founded four years ago, we've completed millions of appointments, tripled year-over-year, and partnered with health plans covering 200M+ Americans across 250+ health systems. In 2026 we raised a $100M Series C, bringing total funding to $215M. The round was led by Menlo Ventures, with participation from Thrive Capital, Index Ventures, J.P. Morgan Growth Equity Partners, Maverick Ventures, Y Combinator, BoxGroup, Atomico, Daybreak, and Operator Partners.

This is not a job for everyone. We hold an extremely high bar because we believe talent density is our biggest competitive advantage. We're looking for people who actively choose hard, ambiguous problems, who run toward unglamorous work, give and receive candid feedback, and bring relentless resilience without the ego. Our work is important, but we are not self-important. We do this because we’re solving one of the hardest problems in the world, and the problem matters. If that's you, we disproportionately reward it.

About The Role

Nourish is looking for highly strategic, motivated, and analytical Strategy & Operations (Sr) Leads to join our growing team. In this role, you’ll work on high-priority projects — from strategy through execution — driving tangible impact across the organization and shaping how we scale access to high-quality nutrition and cardiometabolic care nationwide.

This role is designed as a central entry point for candidates interested in S&O at Nourish — we are actively hiring across all S&O departments. As part of this process, we will thoughtfully match exceptional candidates to the S&O team that best fits their skills, interests, and business priorities. Throughout the interview process, you’ll meet with your respective manager and department leadership across the business.

This is a unique opportunity to build from the ground up at a mission-driven, fast-growing healthtech company. If you thrive in fast-paced, high-ownership environments, love solving ambiguous problems, and want to help scale a company redefining how healthcare works — we’d love to meet you.

This role is full-time and open to NYC-based candidates only with an expectation of 3+ days/week in our Gramercy office, with some remote flexibility.

Key Responsibilities

• Operational Initiatives: Design and implement operating models and system improvements to drive growth and efficiency across business functions
• Strategic Planning & Execution: Lead high-impact strategic initiatives and special projects end-to-end (from problem framing to execution and measurement)
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with teams across Nourish to align on goals and deliver on key initiatives
• Analysis: Analyze key business metrics and data to uncover insights, identify opportunities for growth, and drive recommendations

Note: Exact scope of work may vary depending on the team you join. We’ll be sure to discuss in detail with you once we’ve identified the best fitting role/team.

We’d Love To Hear From You If

• 3–6 years of experience in consulting, investment banking, strategy, and/or operations roles at high-growth companies
• Strong analytical and structured problem-solving skills; comfortable modeling and drawing insights from data (Excel / SQL a plus)
• Excellent communicator who can synthesize complex insights into actionable recommendations
• Self-starter with high bias for action, comfort with ambiguity, and willingness to dive into details
• Strong organizational and project management skills with attention to detail while managing multiple priorities
• Passion for improving healthcare access and outcomes through innovation and scale
