  • Serve as the day-to-day healthcare advisor to the B2B team on deals, product launches, and operational questions, including those involving healthcare counterparties (payors, providers, MA plans, MCOs, digital health, employer health programs, and similar).
  • Draft, review, and negotiate B2B contracts - master services agreements, statements of work, BAAs, data use agreements, and program-specific addenda - against CookUnity's playbook.
  • Advise on Food is Medicine, Medically Tailored Meals, supplemental benefits (including Medicare Advantage SSBCI and SNP frameworks), Medicaid 1115 waivers, and similar healthcare-funded meal programs.
  • Spot-check exposure under fraud and abuse laws (Anti-Kickback Statute, Stark, beneficiary inducement, state analogs) and elevate complex issues to the GC and outside counsel as appropriate.

  • Comfortable operating as a [fractional, embedded] legal partner - highly responsive, organized, and able to triage independently.
  • Excellent judgment on when to decide, when to escalate, and when to bring in outside specialists.
  • Nice to Have
  • Combination of reputable law firm training (with a preference for healthcare regulatory or healthcare transactions practice) and prior in-house experience (again, with a preference for experience at a healthcare company - payor, provider, digital health, PBM, MA plan, or similarly regulated organization).
  • Familiarity with state privacy laws (CCPA/CPRA, Washington My Health My Data Act, and similar) as they intersect with health data.
  • Prior experience advising a food, nutrition, or consumer health company.
  • We believe great leadership starts with alignment on vision, values, and ways of working.
