About PermitFlowPermitFlow is an AI-powered platform automating the manual and time-consuming permitting process for the $1.6T U.S. construction market, -from jurisdiction-specific research to application preparation, submission, and real-time monitoring. By transforming fragmented regulations and manual workflows into structured, intelligent systems, PermitFlow helps contractors move faster, reduce risk, and scale with confidence. We recently raised a $31M Series A led by Kleiner Perkins with participation from Initialized Capital, Y Combinator, Felicis Ventures, and Altos Ventures. Our backers include founders and executives from Procore, ServiceTitan, Zillow, PlanGrid, Procore, Bluebeam, Uber, and more. We're a team of builders-architects, engineers, permitting experts, and product leaders-who have lived the inefficiencies of permitting firsthand and are embracing an AI-first approach to fixing it. We are experiencing more demand than we can meet and are looking for top talent to join our team. We're headquartered in New York City and operate hybrid (in-office 3 days/week). Preference for NYC-based candidates or those open to relocation.• What You'll Do: You'll work alongside the CTO and engineering team to develop the first construction permit application and management platform for builders. Our current team consists of engineers from Uber, Amazon, NerdWallet, OnDeck, Harvard, Stanford, and more. We are background and experience agnostic, and we encourage anyone to apply if they are passionate about joining a small team and working to solve a real-world pain point.
