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.

Support commissioning activities and ensure new assets meet Solar Landscape quality and performance standards.
Serve as a technical resource and mentor for junior O&M technicians, supporting training and skill development.
Maintain detailed and accurate service records, including maintenance activities, repairs, findings, and system performance data.
Partner with internal teams (Asset Management, Engineering, EPC, and Safety) to resolve issues and improve long-term asset reliability.
Uphold all safety protocols, regulatory requirements, and best practices at all times.
Maintain tools, test equipment, and assigned work vehicle in safe, working condition.
Qualifications
High school diploma or equivalent; technical or trade certification strongly preferred.
4+ years of experience in solar O&M, electrical work, or related technical field.
Strong working knowledge of commercial PV systems, electrical theory, and safety standards.
Proven ability to independently diagnose and resolve complex system issues.
Proficiency with hand and power tools, multimeters, insulation resistance meters, and diagnostic equipment (IV Curve tracing preferred).
Comfortable working at heights and outdoors in varying weather conditions.
Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across teams.
