About Vessel

Vessel is building the future of housing. We combine breakthrough design, advanced manufacturing, and first-principles thinking to tackle one of the world’s most pressing challenges: creating sustainable, attainable housing for all. This isn’t just construction—it’s a complete reimagining of how people live.

Backed by Mosaic Ventures and Lennar, the nation’s largest homebuilder, Vessel is rapidly scaling to meet growing demand. We care deeply about every detail—from beauty and durability to efficiency and accessibility—because we believe everyone deserves a thoughtfully made home.

The Opportunity

Vessel is growing rapidly, with scores of projects in planning, and we’re looking for an exceptional Construction Permit Coordinator to join the team. In this role, you will own the end-to-end permitting process across our projects, ensuring Vessel’s product meets all applicable codes, regulations, and municipal requirements.

You will serve as the primary interface between Vessel and municipalities, government agencies, and local officials—driving approvals, resolving comments, and ensuring projects move forward efficiently. This role is ideal for someone with an architectural background who is deeply familiar with building codes and permitting, but prefers execution, coordination, and problem-solving over design work.
