You will lead the transformation of US housing infrastructure by modernizing the permit process for major municipalities. Owning 0→1 products and core systems end-to-end, you’ll work directly with city planners to unblock housing backlogs. This is a high-impact role for a builder who thrives on independence and rapid execution in a mission-critical domain.
Product Manager at Infilla
The US is short 4–7 million homes, and the biggest bottleneck is broken local permitting. This San Francisco-based startup, backed by Basis Set Ventures and Bloomberg Beta, is fixing it. As their second Product Manager, you will own three live products and lead 0-to-1 discovery for a platform that unblocks housing at the municipal level. If you are a builder who uses AI avidly to ship fast and wants to work directly with city agencies like the NYC Department of Buildings and SF Planning, this is your chance to lead a mission-critical product suite with massive social impact.
