About the role
We're hiring our founding AI Operations Engineer.

You'll sit on our Engineering team and work across Permit Ops, customers, and Product. You'll find the process that's slowing people down, build the thing that fixes it, and keep improving it until it works. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- High slope. You learn fast and have a track record of leveling up quickly
- A builder mindset. You've shipped real AI tools or agents to solve complex problems
- Process-minded. You like figuring out how work actually gets done and making it faster, whether that's for a customer or your own team
- Solid engineering. You can build secure production systems, work with APIs and data, and debug systems you didn't build
- A clear communicator. You can work directly with customers and internal teams without needing someone to translate
More about this role
Pulley helps the country’s top architects, builders, and retailers speed up every project in their portfolio. With AI-powered permitting intelligence and expert guidance, we eliminate costly delays and bring predictability across the full lifecycle of commercial projects.
Today, permitting is the slowest, most uncertain part of building, spread across 19,000+ jurisdictions with different rules, timelines, and surprises. Pulley gives project teams the clarity and predictability they need to move from planning to opening without delays.
We support rollout programs for brands like J.Crew, Solidcore, and Hibbett Sports, as well as major data center buildouts, EV charging networks, and other commercial projects. Our platform dramatically reduces approval timelines, improves forecasting accuracy, and removes thousands of hours of manual work from design and construction teams.
Founded in 2021, Pulley combines deep permitting expertise with purpose-built AI from people who have created products used by millions. We’re backed by CRV, Susa Ventures, Fifth Wall, and leaders from Plaid, Segment, ServiceTitan, and Procore.
