  • Diagnose system issues and resolve them in the field
  • Complete work orders, service logs, and required documentation
  • Operate and maintain company vehicle and tools

Core Experience (Utility-Scale Experience Required)

  • 4-5+ years of utility-scale solar experience (solar farms / ground-mount systems)
  • Experience leading crews of 4+ or acting as lead tech on-site
