  • Enforce safety requirements (OSHA, NFPA 70E) on-site
  • Diagnose system issues and resolve them in the field
  • Complete work orders, service logs, and required documentation
  • Operate and maintain company vehicle and tools
  • Train and support junior technicians in the field

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
  • Experience working on megawatt-scale PV systems (NOT residential rooftop solar)
  • Strong electrical troubleshooting and repair skills (inverters, DC systems, power electronics)
  • Experience with solar O&M / maintenance work
  • Working knowledge of OSHA / NFPA 70E safety standards
  • Experience using multimeters, meggers, amp clamps, and testing equipment
  • Basic computer skills (Microsoft Office)
