About EliseAI
At EliseAI, we're improving the industries that matter most: housing and healthcare. Everyone needs a place to live and access to quality healthcare, yet both are often harder to secure than they should be.
By integrating AI agents deeply into existing workflows, we make them more efficient, reduce costs, and improve the experience for everyone.
By integrating AI agents deeply into existing workflows, we make them more efficient, reduce costs, and improve the experience for everyone.
- Healthcare: We make it easy to schedule appointments, complete intake forms, and we help patients communicate with providers, so everyone can focus on health instead of paperwork.
- Housing: We simplify how renters tour apartments, sign leases, submit maintenance requests, and stay connected with their property team—bringing everything they need for their home into one place.
With EliseAI, organizations reduce manual work, improve accessibility, and deliver a seamless experience across essential services.
We recently raised a $250 million Series E round led by Andreessen Horowitz to accelerate this mission.
About The Role
We’re looking for a seasoned affordable housing compliance expert to help build the next generation of compliance software at EliseAI. As our Affordable Housing Compliance Manager, you’ll bridge deep industry knowledge with product development, helping us create tools that streamline compliance workflows and expand access to affordable housing. You’ll work closely with product and engineering teams, contribute to the strategic direction of the product, and serve as a trusted advisor to internal stakeholders and customers.
This role can be remote, but candidates based in NYC or open to relocating are strongly preferred.
Key Responsibilities
- Act as the in-house expert on affordable housing compliance—bringing your experience across LIHTC, HUD, BOND, HOME, and state/local programs to inform product development
- Translate regulatory requirements into clear product input, collaborating with product managers and engineers to shape features and workflows
- Partner with client stakeholders to validate and demonstrate product value, especially for compliance and leasing teams
- Stay on top of federal, state, and local regulatory changes and ensure our software evolves accordingly
- Review and prepare compliance packages (move-ins, first-year certifications, recertifications) to validate software accuracy
- Create and maintain Compliance Narratives outlining program requirements by jurisdiction
- Liaise with public agencies, consultants, and compliance professionals to ensure the product aligns with evolving industry needs
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience in affordable housing compliance, including LIHTC and other federal/state/local programs
- Deep understanding of LIHTC, HUD, BOND, HOME, and local compliance programs across multiple states (especially CA, TX, NY, WA, FL)
- Experience managing compliance teams or operations for affordable housing portfolios
- LIHTC compliance certification from an accredited provider (e.g., Quadel, Novogradac)
- Strong attention to detail and analytical skills; highly organized with excellent written documentation abilities
- Comfortable working cross-functionally; no technical background required, but must collaborate effectively with product and engineering teams
Why Join
Growth and impact. It’s not often that you can get in on the ground floor of a funded (unicorn!) startup that’s scaling. That means that instead of following a playbook, you’ll be writing it. Every single day you will be challenged to identify how we can scale and execute on it. You’ll learn what works when you succeed and what doesn’t when you fail. Either way, the rest of the team will be here to support you.
Benefits
In addition to the growth and impact you’ll have at EliseAI, we offer competitive salaries along with the following benefits:
- Equity in the company in the form of stock options
- Medical, Dental and Vision premiums covered at 100%
- Fully paid parental leave
- Commuter benefits
- 401k benefits
- Monthly fitness stipend
- A collaborative in-office environment with an open floor plan, fully stocked kitchen, and company-paid lunch
- Fun company social events through our Elise and the City program
- Unlimited vacation and paid holidays
- We'll cover relocation packages and make the move exciting, not painful!
