At Charcoal, we’re building the next generation of automation: software that takes on the messy, multi-step work that still runs the world.
We’re obsessed with high-stakes operations — where correctness matters, every exception has a reason, and “it usually works” isn’t good enough. Banks, lenders, and asset managers still run their most critical processes on spreadsheets and swivel-chair handoffs — and they know exactly what that risk is costing them.
We’re looking for people who:
- Sell with urgency and conviction
- Care about the customer’s actual operating reality, not just the contract
- Are hungry to define a category at the earliest stage of a company
Our Culture
Life’s work**:** the best work of our careers so far—work we’ll be proud of for a decade, shaped by obsession with the details, a willingness to do hard things, and end-to-end ownership.
Everyone at Charcoal is here to do our life’s work. We’re a small team of low-ego, high-output individuals who value directness, strong opinions loosely held, and momentum.
We’re also fun people 😊
