Senior Customer Success Manager – Commercial Construction & Change Order Specialist – Driving Digital Transformation & Accelerated Growth at brighthush
About brighthush
brighthush is not just a software vendor; it is the catalyst that is reshaping the commercial construction landscape. For decades, the industry has been hampered by paper‑heavy, siloed workflows that slow projects, inflate costs, and erode trust among stakeholders. brighthush’s mission is to dissolve those barriers by delivering a cloud‑native, real‑time platform that unites general contractors, subcontractors, owners, and finance teams under a single, intuitive interface.
With a portfolio that already spans the largest players in the sector, brighthush processes over $100 million in change order requests each month and supports more than $20 billion in project value. Our platform is the backbone of a growing ecosystem that includes project managers, procurement teams, and finance departments—all collaborating seamlessly to reduce delays, eliminate errors, and unlock unprecedented profitability.
Think of the seismic shift that brighthush brought to tax filing or expense reporting: instant visibility, automated approvals, and data‑driven insights that transform how teams negotiate, document, and close deals. We’re doing the same for construction, delivering a solution that is both powerful and intuitive.
Our growth trajectory is exponential. We’re doubling and tripling revenue year over year, and our product has already achieved strong product‑market fit. We’re looking for leaders who want to be part of a company that is not only scaling fast but also reshaping an entire industry.
