About The Company
Local governments are the foundation of a thriving society. But too often, the essential currency of governance, community trust is fractured. Why? Traditional public input methods - contentious meetings, time-consuming surveys, and high barriers to participation, amplify the voices of the few. We call it the “Same Ten People” problem. The broader, more diverse community goes unheard. That’s where Zencity comes in. Zencity is the AI-native governance platform that powers community voices into finished government work. We go beyond insights - we inject community intelligence directly into the workflows that power cities, counties, and agencies. Our mission is to ensure every government decision is timely, inclusive, and actionable - rooted in real community insight, not just anecdote. We turn public feedback into everyday government action, fueling a continuous loop where you can reach more, understand deeper, act smarter.
About the Role

Who are we?

Zencity is re-inventing the way governments listen to, understand, and interact with their residents. Our community trust platform uses advanced Natural Language Processing, ML algorithms and generative AI to help government organizations hear from more citizens, be more data-driven and increase resident satisfaction. Zencity’s global team of urban enthusiasts and data geeks work with hundreds of cities and counties worldwide - from Los Angeles, to Chicago, to Tel Aviv. If you’re passionate about joining a growing company whose focus is on leveraging data and tech to radically improve life in communities - your place is with us!
