About the role
We are hiring a Construction Project Manager who builds with AI. You understand how construction projects run - schedules, budgets, contractors, and site realities - and you use AI and automation tools to run them faster and smarter. Internally, we call this role a "Construction VibeKid": someone who can vibe code the tools a project needs instead of waiting for someone else to build them. You don't need to be a traditional site engineer, and you don't need to be a software developer. You need to sit in the middle: someone who knows construction project management well enough to spot what's slowing a project down, and is hands-on enough with AI tools to build the fix - a scheduling tracker, an automated report, a contractor dashboard, or a workflow that saves the team hours every week. This is not a role for someone who needs close oversight or a fixed toolset. We are looking for someone curious, resourceful, and quick to experiment - who can take a messy process, figure out what's missing, and ship a working solution.
What you'll do
Construction project management
- Plan and track construction schedules, milestones, and budgets across our projects
- Coordinate with contractors, subcontractors, and consultants to keep work on time and on budget
- Track progress, flag risks and delays early, and drive issues to resolution
- Work closely with our architecture, procurement, and construction teams in India and the U.S.
AI and automation
- Use AI and automation tools to streamline scheduling, budgeting, reporting, and contractor coordination
- Build internal tools, dashboards, and workflows using AI-assisted ("vibe") coding and no-code platforms
- Automate repetitive tasks such as progress reports, cost tracking, RFIs, and status updates
- Stay on top of new AI tools for construction and test what could work for us
Reporting and communication
- Produce clear, regular project reports for leadership - ideally automated
- Keep schedules, budgets, and project data accurate and in one place
- Explain technical tools and project status simply to both construction and non-technical teammates
What you bring
- 3-7 years of experience in construction project management, project controls, or planning
- Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, Architecture, or a related field preferred
- Solid understanding of construction processes, scheduling, budgeting, and contractor coordination
- Hands-on experience building tools or automations with AI (e.g. ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Lovable, Replit) or no-code platforms (e.g. Zapier, Make, Airtable)
- Examples of tools, dashboards, or automations you've built - please share them when you apply
- Strong Google Sheets skills; familiarity with project management tools (e.g. ClickUp, Procore, MS Project, Primavera) is a plus
- Experience on U.S. residential construction projects is a must
- Comfortable operating with high autonomy in a fast-moving, remote, cross-cultural environment
Hiring process
- Stage 1: Intro interview Role alignment, experience overview, a walkthrough of tools you've built, and culture fit
- Stage 2: Test task A short practical assignment: use AI tools to solve a real construction project problem
- Stage 3: Final interview Deep dive into workflows, expectations, and growth
