What is a remote solar permit designer?

A Remote Solar Permit Designer is a professional who creates detailed plans and documentation required for obtaining permits to install solar energy systems, all while working remotely. They use specialized software to design solar panel layouts, electrical diagrams, and site plans based on information provided by clients, installers, or site surveys. Their work ensures that the solar installation complies with local codes and utility requirements, and they typically coordinate with engineers, project managers, and permitting authorities. This role is crucial for streamlining the solar installation process and making sure projects proceed smoothly and legally.

A Remote Solar Permit Designer needs a solid understanding of solar PV system design, electrical codes, and permitting requirements, often supported by experience in CAD software and relevant technical training. Familiarity with design tools such as AutoCAD, Helioscope, and permitting platforms is typically required, as well as knowledge of the National Electrical Code (NEC). Strong attention to detail, organizational skills, and effective remote communication abilities help ensure accurate, timely project deliveries and team coordination. These skills are crucial for creating compliant, high-quality permit packages that streamline installation and approval processes in the solar industry.

What are some common challenges faced when working remotely as a solar permit designer, and how can they be addressed?

Remote Solar Permit Designers often encounter challenges such as coordinating efficiently with local permitting authorities, ensuring accurate site measurements without visiting the property, and maintaining clear communication with clients and installation teams. These can be addressed by leveraging advanced digital tools for site assessment, scheduling regular virtual meetings with stakeholders, and staying updated on regional permitting requirements. Proactive communication and thorough documentation are key to overcoming these challenges and ensuring successful project delivery.

Job description

About Us
 
Solar Landscape is the leading commercial rooftop solar developer in the U.S. Only 4% of commercial rooftops host solar today - we're changing that, fast. Commercial rooftop solar is the fastest, smartest way to build new clean power - delivering megawatts of generation in months, not years, and powering America's energy and future right where it's needed most. By turning rooftops into local power plants, we're reshaping how - and how fast - energy gets built in the U.S.
 
Recognized as the #1 Distributed Generation Developer by New Project Media, the #1 National Commercial Rooftop Solar Developer by Solar Power World, and winner of the U.S. Department of Energy's Grand Prize for Clean Energy, Solar Landscape is defining the future of energy generation in America.
 
Headquartered in Asbury Park, New Jersey, Solar Landscape has offices in Chicago, Baltimore, and New York City and operates in over a dozen states nationwide.
 
We move fast, solve hard problems, and take our work seriously - but never ourselves. We value clear thinking, accountability, and execution. At the same time, we're collaborative by default, and believe the best work happens when people enjoy working together. Our team is made up of smart, grounded people who show up for each other - whether that's troubleshooting a system design or catching up over lunch.
 
If you're looking to do meaningful work in a high-performance environment - and be part of the team reshaping how energy gets built in the U.S. - we'd love to meet you.
 
About The Role

We're looking for a Construction Manager to join our Operations team and lead the on-site execution of commercial solar projects. In this role, you'll be responsible for overseeing all construction activities, with a strong emphasis on safety, quality, and schedule management. You will coordinate with subcontractors, internal teams, and field personnel to ensure projects are completed efficiently, safely, and to the highest standards.
Responsibilities
  • Collaborate with engineers, subcontractors, field labor and vendors on site to coordinate activities and ensure that all work is in sync with project goals and objectives.
  • Visit sites regularly during construction - including bid walks, preconstruction walks, in-progress visits, punch walks, and closeouts - and attend status and coordination meetings.
  • Conduct and document quality assurance and safety inspections throughout the construction process, ensuring that the work environment is acceptable, and that tools and equipment are in good working condition.
  • Plan, execute, and take responsibility for self-performed work and managing labor crews and subcontractors. Plan sequencing, crew-sizes, productivity goals, and monthly labor spend.
  • Execute work and track actual results, adjusting and refining forecasts to reflect actual Production.
Qualifications
  • 5+ years of experience working on solar commercial construction projects.
  • Strong understanding of rooftop installations.
  • Knowledge of ground-mount and carport commercial PV construction means and methods preferred.
  • Understanding of behind-the-meter and utility interconnections.
  • Excellent organization and communication skills.
  • Detail-oriented self-starter.
  • Knowledge of construction safety requirements; OSHA 10 or 30 certification preferred.
  • Valid driver's license with willingness to travel to various job sites.
  • Ability to climb ladders and access building roofs.
  • Must have previous knowledge in Microsoft based platforms.
$70,000 - $100,000 a year
Salary will vary depending on your location and job-related skills and experience. This is an incentive-based position with the potential to earn more. For part-time roles, your compensation will be adjusted to reflect your hours.
Benefits and Perks
 
We offer competitive compensation and benefits designed to support you inside and outside of work:
 
       Training / Professional development opportunities
       401(k) with 4% company match
       Summer Fridays
       Flexible remote/hybrid work options
       Paid parental leave
       Team lunches, events, and stocked kitchens
       Modern, collaborative office spaces in Asbury Park, New York City, Boston, Chicago, and Baltimore
       Medical, dental, and vision coverage
       Company-paid life and long-term disability insurance
