Senior Technoeconomic Analyst

Charm Industrial is working to return the atmosphere to 280 ppm CO₂. We design, build and operate a fleet of mobile fast pyrolyzers that convert ag and forest biomass residues into bio-oil for use in carbon removal and direct-reduced-iron steelmaking.

In 2020 our Chief Scientist and co-founder Shaun Meehan had two breakthroughs (bio-oil intermediate and bio-oil sequestration) that kickstarted the company. Within 10 months we completed our first carbon removal injection and in 2021 we completed more than 5,000 tons of CO₂e removal for customers like Stripe, Shopify and Microsoft. 

The voluntary carbon removal market is nascent, ever-changing, and complex. As Charm drives down the cost curve of CDR deliveries and moves molecules, we must continuously validate the long-term engineering roadmap, determine estimated future costs, and understand how process and product carbon efficiency changes as the business evolves. All of Charm’s various departments collaborate together so that we make informed and forward-looking decisions. The Senior Technoeconomic Analyst will play a critical, cross-functional role in supporting these efforts and will have a meaningful impact on the overarching engineering, financial, and strategic roadmaps.

Through the development of detailed models, the role will own the Charm Duo’s life-cycle analysis, conduct first-principles modeling, leverage insights to identify opportunities to drive meaningful system improvements,  and support long-term cost curve development. 

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