The posting

ABOUT US

Rythm is the fastest-growing lab in America. We redefined at-home testing with the world’s easiest blood test and created a culture around monthly lab testing from home. We’ve processed millions of tests across all 50 states, and we do everything in-house, from sample testing and logistics to code, marketing, and design. That vertical integration gives us the speed, control, and creativity to shape the future of health and wellness.

THE ROLE

As General Counsel, you'll serve as a key strategic advisor to Rythm's founders and leadership team, helping the company navigate growth while balancing opportunity, risk, and innovation.

This is a highly impactful opportunity for someone who thrives in founder-led environments and enjoys operating at the intersection of business strategy, marketing, product, operations, and legal. You'll work closely with leadership to help scale the company responsibly while enabling bold decision-making and continued growth.

This is not a traditional legal gatekeeper role. We're looking for a commercially-minded operator who views legal as a business function, understands how to support high-growth consumer brands, and can help the company move quickly while managing risk effectively.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

  • Serve as the company's primary legal advisor across all areas of the business.
  • Partner closely with founders and executive leadership on strategic initiatives and business decisions.
  • Lead CLIA, CAP, FDA, HIPAA, advertising, privacy, marketing, and regulatory compliance efforts.
  • Provide guidance on claims substantiation, consumer protection requirements, and risk management.
  • Oversee litigation strategy, dispute resolution, and outside counsel relationships.
  • Manage intellectual property, trademarks, licensing, and brand protection initiatives.
  • Review and negotiate commercial agreements, vendor contracts, partnership agreements, and corporate transactions.
  • Advise product, marketing, operations, and growth teams on legal considerations and business opportunities.
  • Develop scalable legal processes, policies, and frameworks to support company growth.
  • Balance speed, innovation, and risk in a fast-moving startup environment.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

  • 10+ years of legal experience, including significant experience supporting consumer-facing businesses.
  • J.D. from an accredited law school and active bar membership.
  • Experience advising high-growth consumer, healthcare, wellness, subscription, ecommerce, or regulated businesses.
  • Deep understanding of CLIA, CAP, HIPAA, FDA, marketing, and consumer protection regulations.
  • Strong experience managing claims substantiation and regulatory review processes.
  • Experience overseeing litigation, class action matters, and outside counsel.
  • Strong commercial contracting and negotiation experience.
  • Demonstrated ability to operate as a strategic business partner to founders and executive teams.
  • Excellent judgment and ability to balance legal risk with business objectives.
  • Comfortable operating autonomously in fast-paced, evolving environments.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to simplify complex legal issues for non-legal audiences.
  • Experience serving as General Counsel or Associate General Counsel at a high-growth consumer brand.
  • Experience supporting healthcare, diagnostics, wellness, supplements, or health technology companies.
  • Experience navigating M&A transactions and corporate development initiatives.
  • Experience supporting venture-backed startups through periods of rapid growth.
  • Prior experience at a top law firm.

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU?

Rythm Health offers a competitive benefits package which includes:

  • Highly competitive base salary.
  • Meaningful equity aligned with the scope and impact of your role.
  • Flexible, remote-first work environment.
  • Generous Paid Time Off and company holidays.
  • 401(k).
  • Monthly Rythm membership with full access to at-home blood testing and personalized health insights.
  • Healthcare with monthly premium fully covered by the business.
  • High ownership and visibility from day one, with the opportunity to make a meaningful impact.
  • The chance to help shape the future of personalized health and preventative care.
  • A small, collaborative, mission-driven team that moves quickly and values great ideas regardless of title.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
