Why Charlie Health?

We are currently facing a nationwide mental health epidemic marked by rising rates of depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use disorders, and suicide. At the same time, those seeking help often encounter barriers—whether geographic, financial, or systemic—that prevent them from receiving timely and effective care. This urgent need calls for a reimagined approach to behavioral health treatment.

At Charlie Health, our mission is to connect the world to life-saving mental health treatment. Our innovative virtual programs combine curated group sessions, individual therapy, and family therapy, delivered through personalized, evidence-based treatment plans designed for sustainable healing from the comfort of home. By connecting individuals with shared experiences and fostering supportive communities, Charlie Health provides a pathway to long-term recovery, with over 90% of our clients seeing improvement in their most challenging mental health symptoms.

Every member of our team shares a deep commitment to this mission. If you’re driven to make a meaningful impact, we invite you to join us in reshaping the future of mental healthcare.

About the Role

As an early member of Charlie Health’s Engineering Team, you will play a big part in building our applications from the ground up.

We’re looking for someone who enjoys partnering closely with the rest of the product development team to make durable contributions and technical decisions as we race toward product launches. You’ll thrive here if you find greenfield work energizing, have a high quality bar, and prefer to iterate to success.

This is a unique opportunity to impact millions of lives while building something from scratch, so we’re looking for someone who is inspired by our mission and as excited about this opportunity as we are.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and deliver high quality, performant, maintainable features that drive meaningful business value using our core technology stack: React, Python, and PostgreSQL.
  • Partner with teammates across the organization to understand our business. Leverage that understanding to drive data modeling discussions and decisions.
  • Be an owner. Collaborate with product and design to iterate to top notch product solutions.
  • Identify bottlenecks and implement improvements to engineering processes, tools, and procedures. We’re early and the expectation of folks joining at this stage is that you’ll play a huge part in setting and improving how we work.
  • Promote a culture of collaboration and learning across engineering, product, and design team via mentoring, documentation, presentations, or other knowledge sharing methods.
  • Ensure our clients can always access the care they need by participating in our on-call rotation

Requirements

  • Professional experience developing user facing web or mobile applications that deliver meaningful business value.
  • Hands on production experience with an application programming language, preferably Python.
  • Ability to break down ambiguous problems into smaller parts with tractable solutions.
  • Growth mindset and a sense of humor. You welcome feedback and when you stumble you get back up. You adapt quickly in a fast-paced environment and you enjoy fostering an environment that prioritizes fun, learning, and growth.
  • 2+ years experience as an engineer #LI-Remote
  • Please note: candidates located within 75 minutes' commuting distance of our NYC office are expected to come to office 4 days/week
