Description
Clearstory is digitizing and automating the change order process inside the commercial construction industry.
Just as TurboTax did for tax documents and Expensify did for receipts and expense reports, Clearstory is doing the same for change order communication and log management by building first-of-its-kind, category defining software that is revolutionizing the commercial construction industry.

- Removing the need to add error-prone and inefficient cost data by leveraging industry codes
- Creating new collaboration features to accommodate some of the industry’s largest construction projects
- Refactoring and tuning an existing code base which has found product-market fit to scale to match the size of our customer base
Specific job requirements:
- 5+ years experience with TypeScript and web frameworks (we use Express, React with Material UI, and React Native)

About Clearstory
At Clearstory we make the construction industry more efficient by using technology to better communicate project costs between companies.
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.
In an industry with constant change, large amounts of capital and thin margins, this results in a massive loss of valuable time and money for hard working contractors.
Clearstory creates tools to help contractors dramatically increase their organization and efficiency with a brand new category, called “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!
