About us

The mission 🏔

With nearly half of Americans suffering from a chronic health condition that can be better managed with nutrition, Fay is on a mission to elevate the role that food plays in healthcare.

The product 🛠

As a two-person founding team, we've built a platform where thousands of people have met with licensed dietitians to treat their health conditions through nutrition — with insurance companies covering the cost of care. Dietitians are thrilled to have a digital medical practice that handles everything from insurance to patient sourcing so they can focus on their patients and ultimately be their own boss. And patients love getting convenient and personalized 1-on-1 care at little to no cost.

The traction 📈

We’re a rare bird, having launched a bootstrapped product as two founders and finding at every step of the way that there’s more demand than we can possibly handle. We have a working business with significant revenue, and our revenue growth is the fastest in our industry.

The team 💪

So far, it’s been just the two of us: Sam, a Harvard dropout with a family full of dietitians, and Mark, an ex-Google engineer who’s seen startups go from a garage to multi-billion dollar acquisition. And now we’re building what we like to call the Marvel team of early-stage startups.

The funding 💰

We just raised millions of dollars from some of the best VCs and angels across tech and healthcare.

What is the role?

Our user base and business have outgrown the software platform that we’ve cobbled together as a two-person founding team. Can you help us build a digital private practice for medical professionals that powers high quality telehealth care while handling complex payments and insurance billing behind the scenes?

The right person for this role is a software generalist who’s eager to build and willing to learn whatever it takes to get the job done. Backend development experience is required, but frontend development ability would be helpful — the more full stack the better.

What you’ll be doing

• Coding: Writing the foundational code for our cloud platform and plenty more code after that
• Sleuthing: We need a clever code detective to root cause and fix the range of issues the arise in real-world software systems
• Discovering: As a small team, we don’t have all of the knowhow for what we’re going to build (e.g., how to put a hold on a credit card) and need someone who’s unafraid to figure it out
• Idea-surfacing: You’ll be close to the code and will have good ideas for what we should be focusing our engineering efforts on — we want you to be speak up!
• Standard-setting: As one of the very first employees and engineers at the company, you’ll be helping establish team culture and standards
