About PermitFlow

PermitFlow is redefining how America builds. Pre‑construction remains one of the most broken and manual parts of the $1.6T construction industry, causing massive delays, wasted capital, and lost opportunity across the built world. Our AI workforce delivers unprecedented speed, accuracy, and visibility to pre‑construction — accelerating housing development, enabling clean‑energy projects, and driving economic growth in communities nationwide.

To date, we’ve powered over $20B in real estate development, helping builders and contractors move faster, reduce risk, and scale with confidence.

We’ve raised $36.5M from Kleiner Perkins, Initialized Capital, Y Combinator, Felicis Ventures, and Altos Ventures, alongside backers from OpenAI, Google, Procore, ServiceTitan, Zillow, PlanGrid, and Uber. We’re on a mission to modernize how the built world operates.

About The Role

The BizOps team is the strategic center of PermitFlow — the force that turns big questions into executable strategy. We tackle the company’s most ambiguous, cross‑functional, and high‑impact problems — from new market strategy to operational scalability to pricing and go‑to‑market design.

As a BizOps Manager, you’ll work directly with our leadership team to diagnose problems, design solutions, and drive execution across the business. This is a uniquely exciting role for a high‑horsepower operator early in their career who wants exposure to executive decision‑making and a clear line of sight to company impact.

You’ll have the autonomy to own problems end‑to‑end and the trust to shape a venture‑backed, hypergrowth business.

What You’ll Do

• Drive Company‑Defining Initiatives — partner with executives to scope, prioritize, and lead strategic and cross‑functional projects.
• Turn Ambiguity into Action — structure unclear problems, define the “so what,” and build executable plans that drive measurable outcomes.
• Build Scalable Systems — transform insights into repeatable processes and operational playbooks.
• Deliver Clarity Through Data — design metrics, dashboards, and analyses that drive business decisions.
• Act as a Force Multiplier — collaborate across Sales, Product, Operations, and Leadership to align teams and accelerate growth.

Who You Are

• 3–5 years in management consulting, investment banking, private equity, venture capital, or BizOps/Strategy at a high‑growth startup.
• Analytical athlete — you use data to clarify ambiguity and drive decisions.
• Player‑coach mindset — equally comfortable running the analysis and leading execution.
• Structured communicator — distills complexity into simple, actionable insights.
• Bias for action — moves fast, iterates quickly, and focuses on impact.
• Collaborative partner — succeeds through influence and cross‑functional teamwork.
• Excited to build at a hyper‑scale startup redefining how America builds.
• Hybrid in NYC — in office Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
