The Company You’ll Join

We are a first-of-its-kind, category-defining software that is revolutionizing the commercial construction industry. Clearstory is digitizing and automating the change order process inside the commercial construction industry. 

We have 14 of the top 25 General Contractors in the USA using our software and we are now regularly seeing six-figure deals. Our software creates an ROI for every general or specialty contractor in the US, ultimately leading to an incredible TAM.  We have recently raised $16M Series B and are surrounded by an experienced and helpful set of investors with domain and industry experience and connections.  We have the balance sheet strength, the customer base and the executive and board experience to win big - we only lack the CRO!

The construction industry is being transformed fast by technology, but the way companies communicate costs hasn’t evolved in decades and still heavily relies on carbon copy paper, spreadsheets, and email to track billions of dollars. These arcane manual processes can take days or weeks and include hours of manual office tasks such as scanning, manually transcribing, and tedious data entry into spreadsheets. Regardless of what financial software a construction company uses internally, they can use us to share costs with the companies they work with. This is why our integrations team is so critical to our company’s success!

Just as TurboTax did for tax documents and Bill.com did for accounts receivable and accounts payable, Clearstory is doing the same for change order communication between construction companies.

At Clearstory we are changing that and creating a new category  “change order communication,” by intelligently digitizing this age-old process. This leads to an increase in profits, more successful contractor-to-customer relationships, more transparency into a project’s true cost, and less wasted paper! 

We are a Series B 100% SaaS company with impressive credentials for a company at our stage.

The Team You’ll Be Surrounded By

In addition to experienced SaaS sales, marketing, engineering, and product leaders, our team has over 60 years of combined experience in the commercial construction space. At Clearstory we know our customer’s pain points and challenges firsthand and have built a category-defining product that serves the user first.

You’ll be part of an ambitious and collaborative company, committed to growing a supportive and diverse team that is passionate about empowering our contractor customers.

More important than meeting 100% of qualifications, we are looking for collaborative, long-term team members with a growth mindset, a commitment to proactive communication, and a bias towards action, who are aligned and excited with our company’s mission to build the industry standard in digital change order communication for the commercial construction industry.

The Opportunity

As an early member of the team, you will have an exceptional impact on the development and iteration of our Company and the workplace culture itself. 

This is your chance to join a team that is bringing game-changing technology to a stagnant, static, pen-and-paper part of the commercial construction industry.

This is an earlier-stage company, and as such, you will have many intangible benefits that go along with that opportunity, such as the ability to influence the culture of your workplace, the ability to make an immediate impact with a product that already has an established product market fit and a healthy and growing user base as well as significant product influence.

Benefits

  • Ability to work with a new product category that has already found product market fit
  • Hybrid work schedule - this role is 3 days a week in our office here in Walnut Creek and two flex days where you are welcome to come into the office or work from home.
  • Executive interaction regularly
  • Competitive market-rate salary for a Series A company
  • Subsidized healthcare, vision, and dental
  • Early equity!

We are an equal opportunity employer and are committed to providing a positive interview experience for every candidate. If accommodations due to a disability or medical condition are needed, connect with us via email at recruiting@Clearstory.com. As a company, we value fairness, collaboration, communication, and leadership and build our teams around these values.
