🏗️ About PermitFlow

PermitFlow is building AI agents for the $1.6T construction industry. We’re creating the leading pre-construction platform, starting with the $12B permitting market.

Our platform automates the slow, manual permitting process for builders, handling everything from jurisdiction research to application preparation, submission, and real-time tracking. By turning fragmented regulations and workflows into structured, intelligent systems, we help contractors move faster, reduce risk, and scale with confidence.

We've raised over $36.5M with Kleiner Perkins leading our Series A, with participation from Initialized Capital, Y Combinator, Felicis Ventures, and Altos Ventures. Our backers include founders and executives from OpenAI, Google, Procore, ServiceTitan, Zillow, PlanGrid, Uber, and more.

We are a team of architects, engineers, permitting experts, and product builders who know the pain of pre-construction firsthand and are committed to solving it. Demand is growing faster than we can keep up, and we’re looking for top talent to help us scale.

Our HQ is in New York City with a hybrid schedule (3 in-office days per week). We prefer NYC-based candidates or those open to relocation.

🚀 Why PermitFlow Wants You

We’re looking for a Mid-Market Account Executive to help customers adopt better permitting workflows and accelerate project timelines. You’ll work with operationally-minded organizations that are ready for change—but need a trusted guide to get there.

This isn’t a transactional sales role. You’ll lead thoughtful, consultative conversations with teams navigating outdated systems, manual processes, or expensive outsourced solutions. Your strength lies in helping customers solve real business problems and manage organizational change with confidence.

Present tailored ROI-driven solutions that demonstrate time savings, cost reduction, and risk mitigation

Guide buyers through change—whether transitioning from legacy internal processes or third-party expediters

Collaborate with SDRs, Customer Success and Operations teams to support pipeline growth

Share market insights cross-functionally to influence roadmap and improve onboarding

Consistently meet or exceed sales goals with a focus on long-term customer value

Change Enabler : Skilled at helping customers shift from outdated processes and adopt more effective ways of working

Industry Curious : Comfortable selling into a range of verticals—from solar installers and EV firms to developers and general contractors

Change Management : Guides stakeholders through operational transitions with confidence and clarity

Communication & Influence : Engages both tactical users and strategic decision-makers with clarity and credibility

Cross-Functional Collaboration : Shares insights across Product, CS, and GTM to drive better outcomes

Compensation Range : $100K - $125K
