Job description

Warehouse Associate: Where Every Job Starts

Austin, TX | Full-Time | On-Site | Hourly, Non-Exempt

Every solar install, every HVAC job, every generator that keeps the lights on when the grid doesn't — it all starts in the warehouse. That's you.

Freedom Power was born when Freedom Solar and Freedom HVAC joined forces to become Texas's complete whole‑house energy company. We don't just install equipment. We hand homeowners the keys to something bigger: control over their energy, their bills, and their future. We call it Energy Empowerment, and it's not a tagline - it's the reason we show up every day.

As a Warehouse Associate, you're the one who makes sure crews have what they need, when they need it. You'll manage inbound and outbound shipments, kit jobs, load modules, run will‑calls, and keep the whole operation organized and moving. No two days look exactly alike, but every day matters - because a crew without the right materials is a job that doesn't get done.

Your Day-to-Day

• Assist crews and electricians with material requests.
• Support the service department with material requests and locating Return Merchandise Authorizations (RMAs).
• Help the Warehouse Manager with fleet maintenance.
• Operate forklifts, pallet jacks, and company vehicles.
• Hotshot materials and pick up will‑calls.
• Refill itemized bags and keep job kits stocked and ready.
• Run recycling and pallet drop‑offs.
• Keep the parts cage neat, organized, and easy to work in - always.
• Look for ways to reduce material waste.
• Handle data entry accurately and on time.
• Keep the warehouse and office space clean and organized.
• Take on other duties as assigned by the Warehouse Manager, Warehouse Operations Manager, or Regional Operations Manager.

What You Bring

• Minimum 1 year of warehouse or manufacturing experience
• Valid state driver's license
• Prior forklift experience required; solar warehouse experience a plus
• Highly organized and process-oriented, with sharp attention to detail
• Strong problem-solving skills and sound decision-making
• Excellent written, verbal, and customer service skills
• Working knowledge of basic warehouse safety, logistics, and supply chain practices
• Comfortable with Microsoft Office (especially Excel), email, and basic data entry
• Solar and electrical product knowledge is a plus
• A team player who can also self-lead, with a results-driven, self-motivated attitude
• Schedule flexibility

The Physical Side

• Comfortable with light lifting and carrying (under 15 lbs), walking, standing, and sitting throughout the day
• Able to operate office equipment and a motor vehicle, with travel by car roughly 10% of the time
• Comfortable working closely with others as well as independently

What's In It For You

• Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance
• 100% Company-Sponsored Short-Term Disability
• 401(k) Employer Matching
• Weekly Pay Dates
• 3 Weeks PTO + 3 Sick Days
• 12 Paid Holidays + 1 Floating Holiday
• Real upward mobility - this role is a launchpad, not a ceiling
