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
