About the role
Our Company The U.S. construction permitting process is a black box. Over 500,000 forms and 20,000 processes, yet 95% of cities use the same building code. Every permitting delay costs businesses revenue, stalls expansion, and disrupts construction schedules. Founded in 2022 by builders, entrepreneurs, and industry experts, GreenLite eliminates permitting uncertainty for developers nationwide. We combine AI-powered technology with an in-house team of registered architects, engineers, and city planners to deliver the fastest, most predictable path to permit approval. Our expert-led compliance process ensures plans are code-ready before submission, reducing revisions, delays, and costs. GreenLite has raised $86M in venture funding from leading investors including Insight Partners, Energize Capital, Craft Ventures, LiveOak Ventures, Trust Ventures, and Chicago Ventures. National brands, including Walgreens, TD Bank, and Driven Brands, trust us to accelerate approvals, reduce risk, and unlock growth. This Role: GreenLite is seeking a Permit Coordinator to support the Operations team. In this role, you’ll prepare, assemble, and submit commercial building permit applications, track submission progress, and assist with administrative tasks such as updating project statuses and managing files in our proprietary software, and ad-hoc regulatory research. You’ll interact regularly with the Permit Operations team, clients, and local city/county building departments. What You’ll Work On On any given day, you can expect to do the following key activities: Plan and Documentation Review: Prepare and submit permit applications, including detailed project plans, environmental impact assessments, and other necessary paperwork. Review plan packages for completeness and accuracy, organize compliance documentation, and ensure all materials are current, accurate, and properly filed. Maintain project trackers, portals, and file systems, ensuring all documentation is organized, up-to-date, and easily accessible.
