Senior Product Designer

The U.S. construction permitting process is a black box. Over 500,000 forms and 20,000 processes, yet 95% of cities use the same building code. Every permitting delay costs businesses revenue, stalls expansion, and disrupts construction schedules.
Founded in 2022 by builders, entrepreneurs, and industry experts, Green Lite eliminates permitting uncertainty for developers nationwide.
We combine AI-powered technology with an in-house team of registered architects, engineers, and city planners to deliver the fastest, most predictable path to permit approval. Our expert-led compliance process ensures plans are code-ready before submission, reducing revisions, delays, and costs.
Green Lite has raised $86M in venture funding from leading investors including Insight Partners, Energize Capital, Craft Ventures, Live Oak Ventures, Trust Ventures, and Chicago Ventures. National brands, including Walgreens, TD Bank, and Driven Brands, trust us to accelerate approvals, reduce risk, and unlock growth.

Green Lite is looking for a Senior Product Designer to join our product and engineering team in bringing innovative solutions to market. You’ll lead the end-to-end design process: validating concepts through user feedback, translating insights into prototypes, and delivering high-fidelity designs that scale. You’ll be instrumental in building our design systems, driving product vision, and reimagining how we build and deliver value to customers.

This is a high-impact role where you’ll shape our products—from early idea to final implementation.

At Green Lite, we place value in our in-office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace 3-4 days per week (M,W,Th) to enable balance for our teammates while keeping Green Lite’s goals top of mind.
