Why now

Solar is short on hands, right when demand is spiking.

Federal tax-credit deadlines are pulling installation timelines forward across the country, and the workforce hasn't caught up. That means faster hiring, real urgency behind job postings, and more room to move up without waiting years for the “next opening.”

Who we are

A job board built and maintained for the US solar workforce.

Solar Roles tracks installer, electrician, service, and sales openings across all 50 states — every listing is solar-specific, not a generic “renewable energy” tag pulled from a multi-industry board. Sign in with Google to save searches and apply faster — we only use your name and email to set up your profile, nothing more.

We also publish independent guides on how these roles connect: which certifications are legally required versus which ones just help you get hired, how NABCEP compares to ETA International and state electrician licenses, and how apprenticeship paths stack up against paying for training up front. The goal is the same one that got us building the job board in the first place: help you find the right entry point into solar, and the next step after it.
