Job description

Finance & Legal · New York City · Remote · FullTime · Senior level

This role asks for a licensed architect or engineer who can review commercial construction plans against building codes and certify them for submission as a private provider. A strong candidate brings many years of code compliance and plan review work, comfort dealing with local authorities, and the ability to guide design teams and write clear correction letters. Project management and client communication matter as much as technical code knowledge.

How it fits the AI era

AI tools speed up the first pass of plan review, flag likely code issues, and help draft comments, so the human expert spends more time on judgment calls and resolving disputes with authorities. The licensed professional still owns the certification and the final call on compliance, which AI cannot sign off on. The role sits where software assistance meets regulated professional responsibility.

How it builds AI experience

Working here means using the company's own AI review tools alongside general AI platforms, so a candidate gains hands on practice applying AI to real permitting work. That experience builds skill in checking AI output against codes and knowing when to override it. Someone preparing for this role could practice using AI to read plans and draft review notes, then verify each finding against the code.

Worth showing

• RA or PE license
• Code compliance review
• AHJ coordination
