What We’re Looking For

We’re on the hunt for a motivated and outgoing Business Development Sales Rep to join our team. Your main focus? Finding and signing new customers who can benefit from our solar servicing solutions. You’ll be responsible for identifying prospects, nurturing relationships, and closing deals with third-party solar asset owners.

This role is ideal for someone who loves making connections, thrives on closing deals, and isn’t afraid to roll up their sleeves at a tradeshow or conference. You’ll be representing us out in the field about 25–40% of the time, with the rest of your work done remotely. You'll have the flexibility to work from wherever, with occasional trips to Houston if needed.
