Summary Generated by Built In

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, from top-tier investors including Accel, Kleiner Perkins, Initialized, Y Combinator, Felicis, and Altos Ventures, with backing from leaders at OpenAI, Google, Procore, ServiceTitan, Zillow, PlanGrid, and Uber.

What You'll Do
We’re looking for an experienced Senior Recruiter to help scale our team. This role is central to our growth and will partner closely with company leadership to define hiring priorities, shape recruiting strategy, and attract exceptional talent.

  • Own the end-to-end recruitment life cycle across both technical and non-technical roles, or focus more deeply on one area (technical or GTM/ops) based on your strengths and interests

  • Lead Sourcing Strategy by developing and executing comprehensive sourcing strategies to identify top-tier candidates, balancing speed with quality

  • Partner with leadership on hiring needs and priorities to implement best-in-class talent acquisition strategies and goals that are trackable, accountable, and rooted in data

  • Day to day execution: Screen potential candidates to assess qualifications and fit, advise hiring managers on candidate management, track internal SLAs and timelines, and own communications with candidates

  • Report on key recruiting metrics and suggest actionable changes to leadership to hit our goals

Qualifications & Fit

  • 3+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience with a demonstrated ability to independently manage roles end-to-end

  • Prior experience in a startup or fast-paced environment; early-stage or rapid-growth experience strongly preferred

  • Strong sourcing experience and comfort proactively building pipelines rather than relying solely on inbound

  • Experience using Ashby ATS to manage pipelines, report on metrics, and maintain clean recruiting operations

  • Ownership mentality: You look for opportunities to make an impact and improve processes that will uplevel the team and business as a whole

What We Offer (Full Time Roles Only)

  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity in a high-growth company

  • 100% company-paid base medical, dental, and vision coverage for employees + healthcare FSA

  • 401(k) savings plan

  • Unlimited PTO and paid family leave

  • Home office & equipment stipend

  • Daily in-office lunch and dinner provided

  • Commuter benefits (pre-tax transit and parking)

PermitFlow provides equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetics, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, or family status, as protected by applicable law.


We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce and welcome people from all backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and abilities. All employment decisions are based on merit, qualifications, and business needs.

We're the "TurboTax for construction permitting," offering end-to-end software that takes the pain out of getting building permits. What We Do: Simplify the complex: We turn the maze of municipal requirements into clear, step-by-step workflows Speed up approvals: Our customers see permit times cut from 2-3 months to just weeks Automate workflows: From research to submission to tracking—all in one platform Ensure accuracy: Our software combines local expertise with AI to create error-free applications Provide transparency: Real-time tracking so everyone knows exactly where permits stand Who We Serve: Real estate developers, general contractors, architects, and owners across the United States. We work with everyone from single-family home builders to large commercial developers. The Impact: Since launching, we've helped permit $1.2B+ in project value and over 5,000 units of housing. We're not just making permitting faster—we're addressing the housing affordability crisis by removing barriers that slow down construction. How We're Different: Unlike generic workflow software, we're built by industry insiders who understand the unique challenges of each municipality. We combine deep permitting expertise with cutting-edge technology to deliver results that matter.

We're not just another SaaS company, we're industry insiders solving our own pain. Your work here directly impacts housing affordability, infrastructure projects, and the future of construction.
