Who's Hiring
Top Industries Hiring
- Consulting & Professional Services
- Construction & Real Estate
What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in solar electrician jobs.
- Valid state journeyman or master electrician license
- NABCEP PV Installation Professional certification or in progress
- Experience installing and wiring photovoltaic systems to NEC Article 690
- Proficiency with conduit bending, wire termination, and DC combiner box wiring
- OSHA 10 or OSHA 30 construction safety certification
- Ability to work at heights and on rooftops with fall protection equipment
Tips for Your Solar Electrician Job Search
List your PV certifications front and center
Put your NABCEP PV Installation Professional credential, state electrical license number, and any manufacturer-specific training right at the top of your resume. Hiring managers scanning solar electrician applications filter for these before reading anything else.
Quantify the systems you have installed
Instead of listing duties, write the total kilowatts or megawatts of systems you have installed, the number of residential versus commercial projects completed, and the inverter brands you have worked with. Those numbers make your resume stand out immediately.
Target openings by project type not just job title
Filter for residential, commercial, or utility-scale roles separately. The tools, permitting knowledge, and physical demands differ enough that applying to only the project type you know best dramatically improves your callback rate.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists solar electrician openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare for a hands-on skills assessment
Many solar contractors ask candidates to wire a combiner box, demonstrate conduit bending, or walk through a roof layout during the interview. Review NEC Article 690 and practice talking through your safety lockout and tagout procedure before you show up.
Negotiate total compensation including travel pay
Solar electrician roles often include per diem, truck allowance, or travel time pay that can add significantly to your base wage. Ask about those line items explicitly during the offer stage, not after you have already accepted.
Solar Electrician Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most solar electricians?
Ameresco, Advanced Roofing, and Tesla are hiring the most solar electricians right now, with openings concentrated in Florida, Illinois, and Texas, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Utility-scale developers and large regional installers tend to post the highest volume of openings at any given time.
How many solar electrician jobs are remote?
About 4% of solar electrician openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting that most of the work requires physical installation on rooftops or at ground-mount sites. The sub-areas most likely to offer remote flexibility are solar system design, permitting coordination, and project management rather than hands-on installation roles.
How do you become a solar electrician?
Start by completing a state-approved electrical apprenticeship program, which combines classroom instruction with on-the-job hours under a licensed electrician. Once you hold a journeyman license, pursue NABCEP PV Installation Professional certification, which requires documented field hours on photovoltaic systems and a proctored exam. Many employers also look for completed manufacturer training on specific inverter and racking systems.
Can you get hired as a solar electrician with little experience?
Yes, residential solar installers and large national contractors regularly hire entry-level candidates who hold at least a valid electrical apprentice registration and OSHA 10 certification. Completing even one or two residential PV installations through a community college program or a volunteer build gives you documented field hours that move your application past the initial screen. Starting as a solar installer helper and cross-training into electrical work is another common path.
What does the solar electrician interview process look like?
Most employers start with a phone screen focused on your license status, PV experience, and availability for travel or overtime. A field supervisor then typically conducts a technical interview covering NEC Article 690 requirements, grounding and bonding practices, and how you handle lockout and tagout procedures. Larger contractors often follow that with a brief hands-on skills check at their shop or a job site walk-through before extending an offer.
Where can I find and apply to solar electrician jobs?
You can find and apply to solar electrician jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Search for roles that match your license level, preferred project type, and location, then apply directly to each listing that fits your background.
