What We’re Looking For • Certified & Experienced — 3+ years of health coaching experience with active certification from a nationally recognized body (e.g., NBHWC, NSHC-CHC). Experience supporting patients with obesity, weight management, or addiction is required. • Warm, Motivational Communicator — You combine deep empathy with clear boundaries—able to coach with kindness, listen without judgment, and hold patients accountable to their goals. • Clinical & Startup Savvy — Bonus points for experience in a clinical setting or a senior coaching role at a top obesity or digital health company. Familiarity with multidisciplinary teams and high-velocity care models is a plus. • Tech-Comfortable & Remote-Ready — Confident using EHRs, telehealth platforms, and remote communication tools. Able to work independently while staying closely connected to a fast-moving care team. • Fluent in Spanish (preferred, not required) — Able to communicate clearly and professionally with Spanish-speaking patients across phone, email, and text.
