Our vertically integrated model gives us total control over every part of the energy lifecycle – from sale through installation and beyond – so you can find endless opportunities for growth. Come join a career you can grow in and a culture you can run with.

About Sunrun Since 2007, Sunrun has grown into America's #1 home solar and battery company. We got here 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.

You’ll follow dynamic, intraday schedules and work across a variety of job sites, helping ensure each system meets both internal standards and local code requirements.

Collaborate with install teams and project managers to resolve inspection-related issues as needed.

Provide documentation (photos, checklist, notes) verifying inspection readiness.

Discuss system installations with the AHJ and customers.

Work with the AHJ and Customer to schedule inspections

Schedule Execution & Field Readiness Follow daily, intraday schedules that may include both survey and inspection jobs across different locations, while also proactively scheduling work for yourself.
