Measured is a telemedicine platform on a mission to make healthcare more accessible and affordable. We believe in a future where anyone suffering from chronic illness can access a world-class specialist within hours, not days, and via the comfort of their home.

Our first and flagship product is centered around obesity, which impacts over 100 million adults in the United States alone. We take an evidence-based approach to weight loss that is medically supervised and combines:

• Prescription weight loss medication delivered by providers trained in obesity, as well as lab tests and monthly check-ins.
• A tailored health plan that includes healthy recipes, customizable meal plans, educational courses, weekly goals and a number of tracking tools.
• 1:1 coaching sessions by Registered Dietitians.
• Assistance in getting insurance to cover any medication costs you might incur.

We're well funded and backed by Y Combinator and several other top-tier investors. We've got plenty of runway and are laser focused on building the future of telemedicine, where technology/AI allows specialists to scale their services to thousands of patients instead of dozens.

We're looking for teammates who are interested in being early players and helping shape company culture. We care deeply about a culture that is inclusive and equitable for people of all backgrounds and experiences. If you do not fit this exact description but feel strongly about us and this role, please reach out regardless.
