About the role

You’ll also roll up your sleeves and dig in to do what is needed to achieve our company goals.
This is a results-driven, fast-paced startup environment with opportunities to grow professionally and take ownership of your role in building the next leading software company in solar. We are invested in your future, offering a competitive startup salary, benefits, and equity.
This is a remote job but preference will be given to those based or willing to be based in Austin, TX.

Why we love what we’re doing
In the technology-focused drive towards a cleaner energy future, the relationship between the technology and the people that use it remains orphaned.
