About Charm

Our mission is to return the atmosphere to 280 ppm CO₂. We convert excess inedible biomass into carbon-rich bio-oil and inject it into underground storage for permanent carbon removal. At scale, we can use bio-oil to make fossil-free iron.

Our carbon removal efforts began in 2020 with initial purchases from customers like Stripe, Shopify, and Microsoft. Since then, we’ve scaled to thousands of tons of carbon removal, grown to over a hundred employees, and established three locations in San Francisco, Colorado, and Louisiana.

We're expanding our team of ambitious, creative, and hands-on problem solvers. We value psychological safety, collaboration, and continuous learning. We take calculated risks and treat mistakes as opportunities to improve. If you're excited about tackling big challenges, we encourage you to explore our company values.

Come help us reverse climate change. Gigatons or bust!

About the role

The voluntary carbon removal market is nascent, ever-changing, and complex. At Charm, we’re supplying that market with permanent and trustworthy credits at scaled volumes. We’ve already proven end-to-end carbon removal, so our next phase is centered around productivity and efficiency. How can Charm maximize its operational rollout in the most cost and carbon efficient manner while still being a good steward of our environment? It’s a question that concerns all of our departments, requiring us to collectively be on the same page, speak the same language, and agree about how we go forward together.

As Charm’s Technical Strategy & Process Economics Lead, you will be at the center of these efforts. You will support Company-wide strategic decision making and capital allocation planning through analyses that consider the standalone and shared costs and benefits of various initiatives. Your analyses will take the form of rigorous technoeconomic models that will provide significant scientific, engineering, and financial conviction for senior leadership. You will be a key conduit between departments, helping to effectively ideate and iterate on what the future Charm looks like.

The role will report directly into the Senior Corporate Finance & Strategy Manager and work hand-in-hand with our Engineering, Research, Operations and Carbon Accounting teams.
