About the role

Regulatory Analyst role at Paces to QA and automate regulatory due diligence for renewable energy siting, permitting, and zoning across jurisdictions.

Responsibilities

  • QA the country's most comprehensive dataset of local renewable-energy zoning regulations — diving into ordinances and rules for solar, wind, battery storage, and data centers
  • Build automated tooling to scale your own judgment — turning one-off rulings into scripted checks and AI-agent workflows that run across thousands of jurisdictions
  • Adjudicate the hard calls: which government actually holds zoning authority, whether state law preempts local rules, and how a jurisdiction treats uses its ordinance never mentions

Qualifications

  • Environmental Policy, urban planning, public policy or related background and genuinely enjoys reading ordinances
  • Comfort reading legal and regulatory text — zoning ordinances, municipal codes, state statutes — and interpreting it precisely
  • A skeptic's mindset: you verify against the primary source, you don't take the AI's word for it
  • Clear, concise written reasoning — your rationale becomes the record for why a value stands
  • Detail-oriented and process-driven: comfortable working a large review queue without losing rigor
  • Comfortable working in a technical environment: you don't need a CS degree, but you should be comfortable with AI-assisted coding, structured data, and scripting

Skills

Required:Regulatory text interpretationRegulatory verificationWritten reasoning

Benefits

  • Paid company holidays
  • Remote-friendly — with a preference to work from our office in Williamsburg, Brooklyn
