Job description

About the company
At Swift Solar, our mission is to unlock the full potential of solar energy. We believe solar can provide affordable, reliable, resilient, clean energy to virtually anyone, anywhere. But while today's solar technology is good, it's not good enough.
Swift Solar's breakthrough perovskite-silicon tandem technology will drive solar power to commanding new heights. Our tandem cells stack a perovskite layer on top of a heterojunction (HJT) silicon cell, delivering dramatically higher efficiency than traditional silicon alone. In 2026, we acquired Meyer Burger's HJT intellectual property and manufacturing assets, giving us the world's most extensive HJT patent portfolio and a clear path to gigawatt-scale domestic production.
This vertically integrated approach means we can design, manufacture, and scale next-generation solar solutions entirely in the United States-from silicon foundations to perovskite innovations. Our technology enables applications ranging from space solar to utility-scale power generation, creating American-made solutions for a world facing growing energy challenges.
Swift Solar is on a journey to bring revolutionary clean-energy technology to market. We're in it for the long haul, with support from world-class investors. Join our extraordinary team building the cutting-edge solar technology that will power the future.
Exploring Your Future at Swift
At Swift Solar, we're always looking for passionate, talented individuals who are ready to help us revolutionize clean energy. While we may not have the exact role for you today, we'd love to connect with you to discuss future opportunities as they arise.

  • Process Technicians: Running experiments to support cutting-edge perovskite solar PV research.
  • Process Engineers: Driving the development and scale-up of thin-film processes.
  • R&D Scientists: Pioneering advances in the field of perovskite solar PV technology.
  • Software Engineers: Developing the tools and platforms that empower our mission to revolutionize solar energy.
  • Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineers: Designing and refining equipment that enables the production of affordable, high-efficiency perovskite photovoltaics
  • Manufacturing Engineers: Preparing for implementation of our first-of-a-kind factory.
  • Maintenance Engineers and Technicians: Ensuring reliable operation of advanced machinery and systems to support uninterrupted production.
  • ... And More!

Joining our talent community means you'll be first in line to hear about opportunities tailored to your expertise. If you're excited about what we're building and want to stay connected for future opportunities, we encourage you to apply here. While this isn't for a specific role, our team regularly reviews applications to identify top talent for upcoming positions.
Let's build the future of solar together.
