What is a commission remote solar engineer?

Commission Remote Solar Engineers are professionals who specialize in commissioning, or verifying and optimizing, solar power systems remotely. Their primary role is to ensure that solar installations are operating correctly and efficiently, using remote monitoring tools and software. They review system performance data, troubleshoot issues, and may provide support for on-site technicians. This job requires strong knowledge of solar technology, electrical systems, and remote diagnostics. As the solar industry grows, remote commissioning helps streamline operations and reduce the need for on-site visits.

To thrive as a Commission Remote Solar Engineer, you need a strong background in electrical engineering, solar energy systems, and commissioning procedures, often supported by a relevant engineering degree and industry certifications like NABCEP. Familiarity with SCADA systems, PV design and monitoring software, and remote troubleshooting tools is typically required. Excellent problem-solving, attention to detail, and effective communication are standout soft skills for this role. These competencies ensure the safe, efficient, and reliable commissioning of solar installations, even when working remotely.

What are some typical challenges faced by commission remote solar engineers and how can they be addressed?

Commission Remote Solar Engineers often encounter challenges such as troubleshooting system issues without being physically present at the installation site, coordinating with on-site teams, and ensuring that all commissioning procedures comply with local regulations. Effective communication and strong problem-solving skills are essential, as engineers must rely on clear instructions and detailed remote diagnostics. Utilizing advanced monitoring tools, maintaining thorough documentation, and building strong relationships with installation crews can help overcome these challenges and ensure successful project commissioning.

Job description

Solar & Energy Storage · Remote (Texas) · Uncapped Commission

We’re looking for a hunter, a closer who can walk into a new market residential and commercial, find the right people to talk to, and bring the deal home. If you know solar and energy storage, you love the chase more than paperwork, and you’re tired of asking permission to do your job well, read on.

About Fortress Power

Fortress Power is an established, profitable solar and energy storage company entering its next phase of growth. We sell battery storage, the most sophisticated component of a modern solar system, and effectively its brain, along with the broader product line, through solar and electrical distributors, EPCs, and installation companies. Our Regional Sales Managers are the people who grow that business in the field.

About the Role

As Regional Sales Manager for Texas, you own revenue growth in your territory. You’ll hunt and close net-new business across two channels: selling through distribution and direct to installers, and across both residential and commercial markets. It’s a complex, consultative B2B sale: within a single account, you might work an owner, a CFO, an engineer, and a sales team, and you’ll need to know how to navigate all of them to get to yes.

What You’ll Own

  • Hunting and closing net-new distributor, EPC, and installer accounts across Texas
  • Your territory strategy, end to end - who to target, how to break in, and how to grow the account
  • Complex, multi-decision-maker B2B sales, from one-person installer shops to larger commercial firms
  • Growth across both residential and commercial channels
  • Hands-on product and sales training for your partners’ teams so they can sell and deploy our solutions
  • Field intelligence back to product and marketing on positioning, pricing, and the competitive landscape

What We’re Looking For

  • A proven hunter. A documented track record of identifying, negotiating, and closing net-new technical B2B accounts, ideally with closing performance near the top of your field.
  • 5+ years in technical B2B sales or sales management.
  • Solar / energy storage industry experience. Working knowledge of PV systems, inverters, and battery storage, and how the distributor and installer landscape works.
  • Self-direction. You run your own game, bring your own ideas.
  • Mobility. Based in Texas and able to travel roughly 50–70% within the region for client visits, site evaluations, and trade shows.
  • Education. A bachelor’s degree in business, marketing, or a technical discipline is a plus.

Bonus points

  • Energy storage sales specifically
  • An active network of installers, EPCs, and distributors in the Northeast.

 

Why This Role

  • Uncapped commission. Tiered and uncapped
  • Real autonomy. Work from home, hit your number and you run your own playbook.
  • Your ideas get implemented. Bring a strategy and you’ll get the support to execute it
  • Room to grow. Expand your territory, grow into Senior RSM or Sales Director, or stay an individual contributor with a bigger book- at a company positioning for significant growth.

Let’s Be Straight With You

We want this to fit on both sides, so here’s the honest version.

  • This is a hunting role, not an account-management seat.
  • Travel is real and regular. Trade shows, site visits, and face-to-face selling are the job.
  • If you don’t already know the industry, the ramp is longer — so we’re prioritizing people who already speak solar and storage, but we are willing to train the right person on the industry.

The Details

Location: Remote, based in Texas

Travel: Approximately 50–70% within the region

Compensation: Competitive base, plus uncapped, tiered commission

Benefits: Health, dental, and vision insurance · PTO and paid holidays
