At Charcoal, we’re building the next generation of automation for the work that still can’t be outsourced to code.

We’re drawn to high-stakes operations — the places where rules are real, exceptions are constant, and reliability matters. If you want to build ambitious systems that touch the real world (and make them actually work), you’ll feel at home here.

We’re looking for people who:

Ship with urgency
Care about correctness and systems thinking
Get energy from high-stakes, real-world operations

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 😊
