Job description

Exact Solar is hiring for a solar site visit technician. The site visit technician visits homes and businesses as the last step in the pre-contract process to collect information about the home or business and take measurements and pictures to ensure the property is suitable for solar installation. Inspection includes assessing the home's electrical equipment where the solar will interconnect as well as the roof age and condition. Exact Solar utilizes a drone with special solar design software as part of the site visit process, so the successful candidate will have the opportunity to earn an FAA drone pilot license for use of the drone and conducting site visits independently.

This is an excellent career opportunity for someone looking to get into the solar industry who also likes interacting with customers and driving around throughout the day to different project sites. The site visit technician role is a chance to learn all aspects of the solar business and advance into other positions within the company.

Candidate must present themselves professionally, be able to answer customer questions, and follow an organized site visit data collection process. Candidate must also interact regularly with the sales team to ensure any special information requests are understood before and after each site visit.
