Solar Technician
You can probably tell by our name that Sandbox Solar is not just another solar panel installation company. Sure, we design, develop, and install the highest quality solar solutions for homes, businesses, and communities. But a lot of companies say that. We’re more interested in what our customers and community say about us. You can find out a lot more about that and us at sandboxsolar.com.
Our growth has kept us in the hiring mode, and we are seeking hard-working, dedicated installers with the skills and experience to hit the ground running. We’re looking for experienced solar installers who may have the capability and ambition to potentially grow into a management role within our company.
