Since 2007, Sunrun has grown into America's #1 home solar and battery company by putting our people's safety and growth first. That's why we created the Power+ program: to invest in your skills. We train you to work across different teams—from qualifying homes for solar, to installing, to inspecting the final work, and servicing existing systems. This versatility helps limit reduced hours and enhances job security in an industry affected by seasons. It also means you can solve customer problems in one visit, keeping you safely off the road and moving your career forward.
As a Certified Electrician at Sunrun, you will be working on a variety of projects from installing solar systems, performing work for our existing customers, and learning more about energy storage and other new technology.

You will also complete solar battery installations, troubleshoot system problems, and safely plan and complete Main Panel Upgrades.
