Job Description

The Role

This is a field-based, high-impact role at the intersection of operations, design, and customer experience.

You’ll be responsible for conducting on-site surveys for residential solar installations, gathering accurate measurements, assessing site conditions, and documenting everything needed for system design and project planning.

You’ll act as the eyes and ears of the operation on-site—ensuring that what gets designed can actually be built efficiently and safely.

This role requires someone who is detail-oriented, reliable, and comfortable working independently in the field while maintaining strong communication with internal teams.

What You’ll Be Doing

Conducting Site SurveysYou’ll perform on-site assessments for residential and commercial solar projects, collecting all necessary data to support design and installation.

Measuring and Evaluating Site ConditionsYou’ll measure roof dimensions, pitch, azimuth, shading, and structural conditions to ensure accurate system planning.

Assessing Electrical InfrastructureYou’ll review electrical panels, meter locations, and interconnection points to confirm system compatibility.

Capturing Site DocumentationYou’ll take detailed photos, notes, and drone imagery (if certified) to provide complete visibility to internal teams.

Identifying Installation ChallengesYou’ll proactively detect potential issues such as roof damage, obstructions, shading, or access limitations.

Data Entry and System UpdatesYou’ll input accurate survey data into company software and CRM tools to keep projects moving forward.

Cross-Team CoordinationYou’ll work closely with sales, design, permitting, and installation teams to ensure alignment.

Maintaining Equipment and StandardsYou’ll ensure all tools, equipment, and vehicles are maintained and that surveys follow safety and company protocols.

Customer InteractionYou’ll represent the company professionally during site visits, providing a positive customer experience.

What We’re Looking For

You’re someone who pays attention to the details—because in this role, details matter.

You’re comfortable working outdoors, managing your own schedule, and using both physical tools and digital systems to get the job done right.

You likely:

  • Have experience in solar, construction, roofing, surveying, or a related field
  • Understand basic residential electrical systems and roof structures
  • Are comfortable climbing ladders and working at heights
  • Are proficient with smartphones, tablets, and mobile apps
  • Have strong organizational and documentation skills
  • Hold a valid driver’s license with a clean driving record
  • Are able to travel locally on a daily basis
  • Have OSHA 10, drone certification, or similar credentials (a plus)

Important to Know

  • This is a field-based role with daily travel to project sites
  • Work is performed outdoors in varying weather conditions
  • Physical activity is a core part of the job (climbing, lifting, walking roofs)
  • Accuracy and attention to detail directly impact project success

How You’ll Work at Terra Energy

We’re a fast-growing company, and not everything is fully built yet—that’s exactly where the opportunity is.

You’ll have ownership over your work, autonomy in the field, and direct impact on how efficiently projects move from sale to installation.

We value people who are proactive, detail-oriented, and focused on outcomes—people who take pride in getting things right the first time.
