The posting

PermitFlow is redefining how America builds. We’re an applied AI company serving the nation’s builders, tackling one of the largest information challenges in the economy: understanding what can be built, where, and how. Our AI agent workforce helps the fastest-growing construction companies navigate everything from permitting and licensing to inspections and project closeouts – accelerating housing, clean-energy, and infrastructure development across the country.

Despite being a $1.6T industry, construction still suffers from massive delays, wasted capital, and lost opportunity. PermitFlow has already delivered unprecedented speed, accuracy, and visibility to over $20B in development, helping contractors reduce compliance time, de-risk projects, and scale with confidence.

As the U.S. enters a new capex supercycle across data centers, factories, housing, and renewables, joining PermitFlow means building the AI infrastructure at the core of every construction project driving the next wave of reindustrialization.

We’ve raised over $90M, most recently completing our Series B, https://www.permitflow.com/blog/permitflow-series-b from top-tier investors including Accel, Kleiner Perkins https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7401703305569275904/, Initialized, Y Combinator, Felicis, and Altos Ventures, with backing from leaders at OpenAI, Google, Procore, ServiceTitan, Zillow, PlanGrid, and Uber.

- Full Stack Development: Architect, design, and implement robust and scalable full-stack solutions. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to gather requirements, understand user needs, and translate them into technical solutions

- Front End Development: Develop responsive and intuitive user interfaces using React and Typescript. Ensure a seamless and visually appealing user experience across various devices and platforms

- Back End Development: Build and optimize server-side components using Node.js. Work with databases, particularly Postgres, to design and implement efficient data storage and retrieval solutions

- System Architecture: Contribute to the overall architecture and design of the construction management platform. Make high-level decisions regarding technology choices, scalability, and system integrations

- Leadership and Mentorship: Conduct code reviews, enforce best practices, and contribute to the professional growth of the development team

- Collaboration: Collaborate with product managers, designers, and other stakeholders to ensure alignment between technical solutions and business objectives. Participate in agile development processes, including sprint planning, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives

- Continuous Learning: Stay updated on industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices in full-stack development. Evaluate and recommend new tools and frameworks to enhance the platform's capabilities

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
