You'll work within an interdisciplinary care team to deliver evidence-based nutrition therapy and support members through their care journey.
The role is called “Flex Registered dietitian” for a reason - your flexibility and resilience is critical!

- Deliver time-bound, goal-driven, impactful coaching through a series of video visits focused on behavior change, habit formation, and lifestyle adjustments for members with digestive conditions. Supplement video visits with personalized, goal-oriented in-app messaging that reinforces progress and maintains continuity between sessions.
- Leverage the Hinge Health technology platforms to make strategic, effective coaching decisions that drive health goal attainment and meaningful member outcomes.
- Collaborate within the care team to ensure a seamless, coordinated member experience and respond to clinician referrals for Medical Nutrition Therapy. Accurately complete all required processes and updates in the member journey, including video visit notes and clinical escalations to established clinical standards.
- Build strong relationships and rapport with members. Listen to and adapt to each member's unique circumstances, supporting them in staying accountable to their goals and healthy lifestyle changes, while keeping members focused and engaged within Hinge Health activities.
- As the front line of our product and member experience, critically assess our coaching approaches, synthesize and relay member trends, insights and feedback to the Product and Clinical Operations teams.
What We're Looking For
- Member-Centered Mindset: High emotional intelligence and top tier coaching skills to help members understand their relationship to movement and connect them to the Hinge Health program in a meaningful manner. Excellent communicator via live interactions (video visits) and asynchronous in-app messaging.
- Quality at Scale: Track record of delivering high quality coaching to a large caseload, consistently meeting metrics for coaching quality, member outcomes, and efficiency.
- Adaptability & Initiative: Demonstrates change agility and a growth mindset amidst ongoing coaching practice and program changes in a fast-paced environment. High aptitude for technology, troubleshooting, and learning new features and tools.
