About the role

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 being a $1.6T industry, construction still suffers from massive delays, wasted capital, and lost opportunity. PermitFlow has already delivered unprecedented speed, accuracy, and visibility to over $20B in development, helping contractors reduce compliance time, de-risk projects, and scale with confidence.

America is entering a CAPEX super-cycle, from data centers and factories to housing and renewables, and joining PermitFlow is building the AI at the heart of every construction project powering the next wave of re-industrialization.

We’ve raised over $90M, most recently completing our Series B, from top-tier investors including Accel, Kleiner Perkins, Initialized, Y Combinator, Felicis, and Altos Ventures, with backing from leaders at OpenAI, Google, Procore, ServiceTitan, Zillow, PlanGrid, and Uber.

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.

Who you are?

  • B2B Software Customer Success Expert: You've managed customers with 5-6 figure ACVs, and always take a pro-active approach that is thoughtful and detail-oriented.

  • Customer Focused: Build and maintain strong, long-lasting customer relationships. You'll be the go-to for our customers who keenly understands their business needs and how PermitFlow can fit in to their growth and success.

  • Thought Leader: Act as a key player in the CS process, iterating adoption all the way through advocacy.

  • Analytical: You're take a data-driven approach and are able to gather, format, and interpret data to leverage in customer conversations.

What You’ll Do:

As an early Customer Success Manager at PermitFlow, you’ll work alongside the Head of Customer Success to both support our rapidly-growing customer base and develop and iterate on processes. 

  • Manage a book of business comprised primarily of contractors and developers in the construction industry and nurturing stakeholder relationships with decision makers and influencers

  • Own customer rollout, lifecycle management, renewal and expansion for your book of business

  • Collaborate with our Permit Operations team to onboard clients and ensure their continued satisfaction with the platform

  • Proactively build and project-manage intervention plans for at-risk customers

  • Engage with Product and Operations leadership to provide user feedback and play a key role in developing the product roadmap

  • Collaborate with the Head of Customer Success on internal initiatives, building process and laying the groundwork for future CSMs

The ideal candidate for this role is a proactive team player that is willing to dive in head first in the face of ambiguity, and a customer-first thinker who can rationalize the needs of our customers’ businesses with our own priorities.


Qualifications & Fit:

  • 4+ years of experience within the early stage tech startup space

  • Excellent communication and negotiation skills, with the ability to deliver presentations and demonstrations effectively

  • Self-motivated and driven, with a passion for building strong customer relationships

  • Willing to dive in head first in the face of challenges and ambiguity

  • Experience in the construction industry (and ideally permitting) is a strong plus!
