About the role

  • This is a hands-on, Player-Coach leadership role.
  • We're a team of passionate, forward-thinking professionals eager to take on the behavioral health crisis and play a formative role in providing life-saving solutions.
  • If you're inspired by our mission and energized by the idea that the distance between identifying an operational friction and shipping a clinical intervention should be measured in days rather than months, apply today.

Responsibilities

  • Drive the long-term roadmap for AI-ready data: real-time signal graphs beyond batch cycles, schema-validated event flows, and semantic retrieval surfaces for transcripts, notes, and other long-form artifacts
  • Lead execution end-to-end: sprint ceremonies, roadmap planning, and prioritization, with the discipline to keep a growing team shipping high-quality, reliable solutions on schedule
  • Guide and contribute to architecture and design decisions across our stack (Dagster, Snowflake, dbt, Fivetran, Hightouch, Hex, Tableau), and resolve critical technical issues as a hands-on technical leader
  • Own the data infrastructure that powers company-wide KPI reporting, ad hoc analysis, product analytics, and dashboard development, ensuring the underlying models, pipelines, and semantic layer enable downstream teams to deliver clear, accurate insights as business questions evolve
  • Drive reliability, scalability, observability, security, and cost-efficiency improvements across the data stack, including the PHI gatekeeping and HITRUST-aligned patterns that govern signal ingestion
  • Identify bottlenecks and implement improvements to team workflows, tools, and development practices
  • Manage and mentor a growing team of Data and Analytics Engineers and one Data Engineering Manager. Operate as a Player-Coach: focus on craft, mentorship, high-leverage code review, and supporting DRIs running 90-day cross-cutting missions
  • Define and maintain data governance standards and proactively manage stakeholder expectations to drive scalable, trusted data use
  • We deliver personalized, virtual care rooted in connection-between clients and clinicians, care teams, loved ones, and the communities that support them.
  • If you're ready to use your skills to drive lasting change and help more people access the care they deserve, we'd love to meet you.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of data or analytics engineering experience, with 4+ years managing and mentoring data and analytics engineers, with a focus on execution and delivery
  • Experience with workflow orchestration tools like Dagster, Airflow, or Prefect
  • Track record of improving team processes, optimizing workflows, and delivering measurable impact
  • Experience with AWS cloud technologies
  • Experience working in a startup environment
  • Familiarity with vector stores (Pgvector, Pinecone) and patterns for semantic retrieval over operational data
  • Experience supporting ML or agentic AI workloads as a data consumer - designing schemas, features, or context surfaces that downstream models and agents rely on

Nice to have

  • Proficiency in Python (preferred) or another language strong enough to guide and review technical work

Compensation

  • The total target base compensation for this role will be between $250,000 and $325,000 per year at the commencement of employment.

  • Why Charlie Health?
  • Millions of people across the country are navigating mental health conditions, substance use disorders, and eating disorders, but too often, they're met with barriers to care.
  • From limited local options and long wait times to treatment that lacks personalization, behavioral healthcare can leave people feeling unseen and unsupported.
  • Charlie Health exists to change that.
  • Our mission is to connect the world to life-saving behavioral health treatment.
  • As a rapidly growing organization, we're reaching more communities every day and building a team that's redefining what behavioral health treatment can look like.
  • Define and execute a vision for scalable data model architecture in Snowflake, evolving 1,600+ existing dbt models toward extensible, well-governed, agent-consumable patterns
  • Please note, pay will be determined on an individualized basis and will be impacted by location, experience, expertise, internal pay equity, and other relevant business considerations.
