About the role

  • OUR COMPANY The U.S. construction permitting process is a black box.
  • Every permitting delay costs businesses revenue, stalls expansion, and disrupts construction schedules.
  • Our expert-led compliance process ensures plans are code-ready before submission, reducing revisions, delays, and costs.

Responsibilities

  • Design & ship production agents: Own one or more high-impact agent workflows (e.g., Permit Intake Triage, Smart Document QA, Compliance Comment Copilot, Code Lookup inside LiteTable).
  • Compose multi-step graphs (LangGraph) with Strands-based reasoning/tooling and develop internal/external tools for targeting heterogeneous datasets.
  • Retrieval & knowledge: Partner with Data to wire agents to building-code knowledge (RAG), evaluate vector store options (incl. S3 Vectors preview, or Pinecone) and set up durable knowledge interfaces the agents can trust.
  • UX handoffs: Collaborate with Product/Design to craft agent-first reviewer UX in LiteTable (great inline citations, diffs, and remediation suggestions).
  • Quality & reliability: Build fault-tolerant flows (retries/rollbacks/compensation), observability dashboards, and on-call runbooks for agent incidents.
  • Technical leadership: Create internal libraries/templates for agent patterns
  • Technical leadership: Create internal libraries/templates for agent patterns; mentor engineers; review designs with domain experts (architects/code officials).
  • Evaluation mindset: Ability to design realistic, auditable testbeds; familiarity with agent benchmarks (and their pitfalls) and how to turn real user flows into acceptance tests.
  • Domain empathy: Curiosity for building codes, plan sets, and reviewer workflows; comfort working with messy PDFs/CAD and plan-review UX.
  • 90 days: Participation in developing a plan for agents driving ≥25% faster reviews on target flows; stable on-call; cost/latency under thresholds; repeatable patterns/template repos useful for future agents.

Requirements

  • familiarity with agent benchmarks (and their pitfalls) and how to turn real user flows into acceptance tests.

Nice to have

  • knowledge of Pinecone or early exposure to S3 Vectors), schema/versioning for code texts and comments.
  • Nice to have - comfort with Runtime (session isolation, 8-hour sessions, large payloads), Memory, Gateway, Identity, Observability, and built-in Browser/Code-Interpreter.
  • Bedrock AgentCore knowledge: Nice to have - comfort with Runtime (session isolation, 8-hour sessions, large payloads), Memory, Gateway, Identity, Observability, and built-in Browser/Code-Interpreter.

Skills

Company info

  • We're on a mission to automate one of the most costly and expertise-dependent bottlenecks in the built environment - construction plan review.
  • Today, plan review is slow, expensive, and highly manual, requiring licensed experts to navigate thousands of unique jurisdictional construction codes and complex architectural documents.
  • We believe AI can help.
  • As a key hire in our AI engineering organization, you'll operate with a founder mindset, help in defining our long‑term data strategy, and help to grow multiple squads behind it.
  • GreenLite is building agentic workflows that compress permitting cycle time across thousands of jurisdictions-spanning permit intake, checklist generation, document QA, code citation, and review ops inside LiteTable.
  • Your work turns messy PDFs/CAD plans and scattered code texts into decisive, auditable agent actions that help customers get permits faster.
