Careers at Chaperone

Build peer-first behavioral health support that reaches people early.

We’re a team of builders, clinicians, peers, and operators behind a peer-first behavioral health platform. Trained Peer Coaches do the direct support; the rest of us build, secure, and run the systems that make their work possible.

Why work here

Meaningful work, with the guardrails to do it right.

Behavioral health is hard, human, and high-stakes. We’re building support that meets people early, treats their privacy as sacred, and connects them to the right help, with peer connection at the heart of it.

If you want your day-to-day to add up to something, and you want to do it on a team that takes safety, privacy, and quality seriously rather than as an afterthought, this is a good place to do it.

  • Work that connects people to support when it matters
  • A peer-first model where humans stay the center
  • A culture that treats privacy and safety as first principles
  • Colleagues from clinical, peer, product, and engineering worlds
Our mission & values

No one navigates alone, and the way we build reflects that.

These aren’t poster slogans. They’re how we make decisions about product, hiring, and the people we serve.

Humans at the center

People are healed by people. Trained Peer Coaches are the heart of the experience; everything we build serves the human connection, never replaces it.

Privacy is sacred

People open up only when they trust us. We design for the least data necessary, never surveil, and treat every conversation with care.

Safety, not shortcuts

When someone needs more than peer support, getting them there safely matters more than any metric. We build escalation and supervision in from the start.

Plainspoken & honest

We say what’s true, mark what’s unproven, and don’t overpromise. Clear, warm, credible: with stakeholders and with the people we support.

Lived experience counts

The people closest to a problem often understand it best. We hire for empathy and perspective, not just pedigree, and we build with our communities.

Earn it, then measure it

We’re skeptical of our own claims. We pilot, learn, and validate, and we’d rather earn trust slowly than promise outcomes we can’t yet back up.

How we work

A team that takes the mission seriously and the people kindly.

We’re remote-friendly and outcome-oriented, with a bias toward small teams who own real problems end to end. We invest in craft, in each other, and in the communities we’re here to support.

You’ll work alongside peer specialists, clinicians, security and compliance folks, designers, and engineers, and decisions get made close to the work.

Remote-friendly

Work from where you do your best thinking.

Benefits that match

Behavioral health support is a benefit we use, not just sell.

Room to grow

Real ownership, mentorship, and a path to do more.

People-first culture

We extend the same care inward that we offer outward.

A different path in

Become a Peer Coach

Not every role here is behind a desk. Our Peer Coaches are the human center of Chaperone: trained, supervised people who walk alongside someone who’s struggling. It’s a distinct path with its own training, support, and application process.

Peer support is connection, encouragement, and practical guidance from someone who’s been there. It isn’t therapy, clinical treatment, diagnosis, or crisis counseling. When someone needs more, Peer Coaches help them get there.

Equal opportunity

Everyone belongs in the work of helping people belong.

An equal opportunity employer

Chaperone Health is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome applicants of every background and do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.

Accessible hiring

We’re committed to an accessible, inclusive hiring process and provide reasonable accommodations for applicants and team members. If you need an accommodation at any stage, let us know and we’ll work with you.
