Solar Service Technician - Commercial

Commercial Solar Service Technician

Location: Chandler, AZ (Servicing the Phoenix Valley & Statewide) 

Job Type: Full-Time, Hourly Schedule: Monday to Friday (Occasional overnight travel with advanced notice; hotel and per diem covered)

The Opportunity: Long-Term Commercial O&M Partnerships

Commercial customers across the valley don't just need a solar installation; they require a dedicated, long-term Operations & Maintenance (O&M) partner to protect and maximize their large-scale energy investments. Because commercial solar operates at a much larger and more complex scale—often up to 2 MW in size—these businesses rely on the deep expertise and stability of an established provider.

Sun Valley Solar Solutions has been a trusted industry leader for 20 years. While we offer the top-tier resources and benefits of a large corporation, we fiercely maintain the supportive, collaborative feel of a smaller business. If you have a diversified background in building and maintaining high-capacity commercial systems and want to build a long-term career with a company known for its quality and stability, we want you on our team.

What You Will Do in the Field

Based locally in the field with a company-issued work vehicle, you will operate independently or with a team to ensure large-scale commercial systems run safely and at peak performance.

• Commercial O&M & Troubleshooting: Diagnose and repair large-scale commercial installations, isolating ground faults, down inverters, down strings, and bad panels on systems up to 2 MW.
• Commissioning & Testing: Perform insulation testing, I-V curve testing, thermal imagery, and OEM testing using tools like Fluke IR cameras.
• Networking & Monitoring: Install, configure, and troubleshoot commercial-scale monitoring equipment.
• System Upgrades & Modifications: Perform uninstallations and reinstallations (R&R) for roof repairs, install EV charging stations, and assist with equipment warranty/RMA processes.
• Documentation: Accurately report findings and detail equipment (including serial numbers) using your laptop or phone via our field service CRM software.

• Technical Acumen: Ability to read and interpret complex electrical/structural plan sets, perform take-offs for ordering materials, and understand the NEC.
• Advanced Safety Knowledge: OSHA 30 and NFPA-70E training are extremely helpful and highly preferred to ensure safe operation around high-voltage commercial equipment.
• Physical Mobility: Ability to comfortably lift up to 60 lbs, climb ladders, navigate expansive commercial rooftops, and perform in varying Arizona weather conditions (This is a Safety-Sensitive role).
• Clean Driving Record: A valid driver's license and acceptance on our company auto insurance (no DUIs in the past 3 years).
