Quality & Compliance Lead
Job Description
Live it Up is an early-stage, high-growth startup rewriting the script on healthy living. We see health holistically - more than just the absence of illness. It's about vibrant bodies and minds. We're on a mission to give nutrition its color back and make a healthy lifestyle everyone can lead. Our secret? Natural supplement powders crafted from real superfoods. Enter our best seller: Super Greens, designed to bridge the nutrition gap faced by 90% of American adults who are not eating the official daily recommended dosage of greens that powers a healthy diet.
Live it Up is looking for a Quality & Compliance Lead to ensure everything we do, from product development to marketing, is built on a rock-solid foundation of quality, safety, and regulatory integrity. If you’re a detailed problem solver who thrives in cross-functional roles, this is the role for you!
What You’ll Do:
Lead FSQA Programs: Own food safety and quality systems across the supply chain, including HACCP, cGMPs, supplier management, testing protocols, and customer complaint resolution
Own Regulatory Compliance: Ensure we’re compliant with all relevant laws and guidance (FDA, FTC, DSHEA, Prop 65, ADA, and beyond) and keep product documentation, shelf life, label reviews, and testing standards in line.
Review Claims and Marketing: Partner with Marketing to review claims and content, create clear approval processes, and maintain compliance guidelines
Document and Train: Build SOPs, training resources, and escalation paths to make compliance a shared language across teams
Be the Compliance Braintrust: Know when to bring in external experts, or legal counsel and how to get the answers we need to make smart, compliant decisions - you don’t have to be an FDA lawyer, but you know when to call one!
Who You Are:
You’re the go-to person for any and all questions related to compliance, regulatory, and food safety
You’ve worked across FSQA and regulatory areas and know how to simplify complex rules into clear, actionable processes
You’re calm under pressure, fluent in spreadsheets and systems, and not afraid to chase down the details
You work well across functions like Product, People, Marketing, and Operations/Supply Chain
You seamlessly manage third-party co-manufacturers, consultants, or legal partners
Documentation and project management are second nature to you
Bonus Points If:
🌱 You’ve worked at a high-growth DTC supplement or food brand
🌍 You’ve navigated ADA, Prop 65, or international labeling requirements
We care more about practical know-how than formal titles. If you have experience implementing a top-tier compliance or regulatory process, we want to hear from you!
