Customer Solutions Engineer (New Grad)
Job Description
Position Overview
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 a $1.6T industry burdened by delays and wasted capital, PermitFlow has already delivered unprecedented speed, accuracy, and visibility to over $20B in development. As America enters a CAPEX super-cycle, joining PermitFlow means building the AI core powering the next wave of re-industrialization. Our headquarters is in New York City with a hybrid schedule (3 in-office days per week), and we welcome candidates who are NYC-based or open to relocation.
