Nutrition Expert

Help us fuel every athlete’s dream.

At The Athlete’s FoodCoach, we’re building the next generation of AI-powered nutrition technology, proven in elite sport, now scaled to athletes everywhere. We’re a scale-up with elite proof behind us and a coach-led model built to scale: we turn every coach into a nutrition coach, so a fast-growing market of committed athletes can get elite-level fueling guidance. The AI nutritional expert for sports coaches, coaches set the goals, our platform delivers the daily plan that adapts to each athlete’s training.

How it works is deliberately simple: a coach sets the few nutrition priorities that matter for an athlete, and each priority becomes a concrete action point, one real change in what, when and how they eat. You’ll own the science and the content behind that structure. We assess the athlete and recommend the priorities and first action. The coach sets that week’s action with the athlete and coaches it. We guide. The coach coaches.

We’re looking for a Nutrition Expert who turns elite sports-science into simple, daily guidance any coach can deliver, and who is the face of our nutrition expertise to the outside world. You’ll shape our coach-led nutrition roadmap and work directly with the world’s leading nutrition and performance experts — the teams at Team Visma | Lease a Bike, Red Bull’s Athlete Performance Center and other top professional teams — making sure what we build holds up at the highest level, and translating it back to our team.

Our story

We believe the real difference in performance is made in daily nutrition. If athletes push themselves in the right direction and make every meal a little bit better than before, they will improve. Read our story here: https://www.theathletesfoodcoach.com/insights/coach/the-story-of-foodcoach

What you’ll do?

• Own and sharpen the nutrition engine: the priorities, actions and recommendations coaches deliver, calibrated to real training load, sport and goals. Push it further with real coach and athlete feedback.
• Analyse where nutrition can move performance most, across the whole engine, and translate it all the way to the coach, so the coach gets more impact from every athlete conversation.
• Safeguard the credibility of the product. Pressure-test the principle-based engine so what we ship holds up at the elite level.
• Work directly with the world’s leading nutrition and performance experts. The teams at Team Visma | Lease a Bike, Red Bull’s Athlete Performance Center and other top professional teams. Regular check-ins, co-creation and feedback that shape what we build, and translate it back to our team.
