Project Manager

Who We Are: cove.tool is at the forefront of sustainable building design, combining AI-powered consulting with advanced analytics to optimize efficiency and environmental impact for architecture, engineering, and construction customers. We raised a $30 million Series B from Coatue (early backer of Apple, Tesla, and Rivian) and actor Robert Downey Jr (aka Iron Man). cove.tool helps design teams streamline project workflows while rapidly decarbonizing the building design process by automating energy, daylight, glare, cost, and more. Did you know buildings contribute to over 40% of the global carbon emissions? Last year we helped customers offset 5x more carbon than Tesla!
