Company mission
To streamline and simplify construction permitting in the United States.
Role
Who you are
- All applications must link to or include a portfolio. We’re looking for your ability to craft design solutions in relevant or related product areas and an ability to deliver high-quality design thinking and product design in a fast-paced environment
- 5+ years of experience designing software; we're especially looking for experience with B2B products and complex workflows but any experience building software interfaces applies
- Our team primarily uses Figma, Notion, Linear. You should be comfortable with those or similar tooling
- High tolerance for ambiguity. We are moving fast, and our design, product, and engineering processes are constantly in flux. We value team members that can roll with this messiness and contribute to discussions on how to constantly improve
- Strong communication skills. Both designers and engineers and Permitflow spend time talking to internal and external stakeholders
- Technical competence. You don’t need to know how to code (although it’s a bonus) – but we value the ability to effectively communicate designs and decisions with engineers. It’s certainly not a requirement for the job, but the product team is very collaborative and being able to understand technical implications and trade-offs is a valuable skill
What the job involves
- Dive into the world of construction permitting and learn from our internal resources and team about how permitting works. Success requires our team becoming experts in construction permitting
- Identify and assess opportunities for UX and visual improvements in the PF application
- Contribute to overall strategy and decision-making about product direction
- Lead end-to-end design projects and work closely with our customers, engineering, and other teams to design internal and customer-facing applications
- Help establish our early processes that advocate for a design-centric approach
- Collaborate with the sales and marketing team to produce sales collateral and branding material as needed
- Help us design a really amazing permitting product that is not only beautiful, but works and scales
Our take
Aiming to create value in the construction market currently worth over $1.5 trillion, San Francisco-based PermitFlow is a construction permit application and management platform for builders and owners.
For too long, builders have been shuffling through the unique processes of municipalities, whereas now PermitFlow offers a standardized permit application workflow through which users can easily prepare and submit permit applications, receive approvals, and respond to municipal comments on one single platform. This saves time, reduces errors and shortens municipal review cycles, ultimately speeding up the time taken to permit.
In partnership with TraceAir, PermitFlow is set to transform construction project management by combining advanced technologies. This collaboration aims to enhance efficiency and reliability, creating a more streamlined process that benefits builders and stakeholders across the nation.
