About Blumen

Blumen is rebuilding how America builds infrastructure.

There's over $2 trillion in infrastructure projects stuck in regulatory purgatory across the US right now. Every power plant, transmission line, data center, and pipeline faces the same reality: navigating thousands of federal, state, and local regulations through broken government websites, expensive services that miss critical requirements, and bespoke tools that only work in one state.

We've built the AI platform that aggregates 1,500+ geospatial data layers and regulatory intelligence to generate expert-grade permitting, siting, and regulatory compliance insights in hours instead of weeks. We're working with publicly traded energy companies and the developers building the infrastructure backbone of America's energy transition.

The Opportunity

Blumen is building the regulatory intelligence layer for how America builds energy and critical infrastructure. Your job is to build the knowledge underneath it.

We're looking for a detail-oriented environmental or permitting professional who can turn complex laws, regulations, and agency guidance into structured, scalable data; the kind that powers software used across thousands of projects.

This is a role for someone who can move between deep focus and big-picture thinking: digging into zoning codes and agency guidance one hour, and the next hour strategizing about how that logic should be modeled so it holds up in every jurisdiction we add.

What You'll Do

  • Research and interpret federal, state, and local regulations across jurisdictions

  • Structure and tag regulatory information so it can power automation and compliance workflows

  • Review and quality-check Blumen's regulatory datasets for accuracy and completeness

  • Find the ambiguity, edge cases, and contradictions others miss, then define how we handle them

  • Communicate product gaps, workflow problems, and data quality issues clearly to engineering and product

  • Work alongside engineers, product managers, and domain experts to turn complex regulations into structured logic

  • Build the internal methodologies, documentation, and quality standards this work runs on

You're a Fit If

  • You've worked in permitting, environmental compliance, land use, or regulatory analysis for several years

  • You're exceptionally detail-oriented and notice inconsistencies others miss

  • You think critically instead of working down a checklist

  • You can get your bearings quickly in an unfamiliar regulatory framework

  • You write clearly, concisely, and with precision

  • You separate observation from conclusion, and surface problems before proposing solutions

  • You enjoy turning complex information into simple, scalable systems

  • You're comfortable balancing repetitive quality control with independent critical thinking

  • You want to build a software product, not produce one-off consulting deliverables

Bonus Points If You Have

  • Familiarity with NEPA, Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, or state equivalents

  • Experience interpreting statutes, regulations, permits, contracts, or technical standards

  • GIS or spatial dataset experience

  • Prior experience in environmental consulting, data QA, or government permitting

  • AI or data product experience
