Job Description

Solar Installer. Powering Texas, One Rooftop at a Time.

Houston, TX Full-Time On-Site

Some jobs put panels on roofs. This one puts power in people's hands — and you're the one who makes it happen.

Freedom Power was born when Freedom Solar and Freedom HVAC joined forces to become Texas's complete whole-house energy company. We don't just install solar systems. We hand homeowners the keys to something bigger: control over their energy, their bills, and their future. We call it Energy Empowerment, and it's not a tagline — it's the reason we show up every day.

If you've got construction know-how in your hands and hustle in your blood, this is your shot to do work that actually matters. You'll be part of a tight crew installing 1kW–30kW solar systems on residential homes across Austin — racking, DC and AC equipment, commissioning, testing, all of it. No two rooftops are the same, and every system you bring online is one more family taking control of their energy future.

Competitive pay with performance bonuses on top.

What You'll Do

  • Attend daily safety meetings before any work is performed on-site — safety is non-negotiable.
  • Install racking systems per manufacturer specs and Freedom Solar plans across a variety of residential roof types.
  • Install DC and AC equipment per plans and local codes.
  • Commission and test PV systems safely, including voltage testing from 10V–1000VDC and 120V–480VAC.
  • Make field changes as needed and communicate clearly with the Project Manager.
  • Drive company trucks and trailers safely to and from job sites.
  • Support the crew lead and Regional Operations Manager with other duties as assigned.

What You Bring

  • Residential solar installation experience (required)
  • Valid driver's license and clean MVR — required to drive company vehicles
  • OSHA 10 required; OSHA 30 preferred
  • Apprentice Electrical License preferred
  • Electrical experience strongly recommended
  • Knowledge of local electrical codes and residential PV design and components
  • Ability to read blueprints, wiring schematics, and electrical instructions
  • Background in construction trades — roofing, carpentry, or metal framing is a plus

The Physical Side

  • Comfortable on rooftops, ladders, and at heights — every day
  • Able to lift 50–75+ lbs routinely throughout the day
  • Good with bending, stretching, squatting, and sustained physical effort
  • Unbothered by Texas heat (100°F+), cold snaps, or wet conditions — you work in all of it

What's In It For You

  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance
  • 100% Company-Sponsored Short-Term Disability
  • 401(k) Employer Matching
  • Weekly Pay Dates
  • 3 Weeks PTO + 3 Sick Days
  • 12 Paid Holidays + 1 Floating Holiday
  • Upward mobility opportunities

One More Thing

One of our favorite core values is Give a Damn — and that's exactly what we're looking for. We hire for grit, craftsmanship, and character as much as resumes — and we're always excited to discover skills we didn't know we needed.

About Freedom Solar Power

Freedom Solar Power is the leader in turnkey solar installations, providing high quality, cost-effective, reliable solar solutions for residential and commercial markets. Based in Austin since 2007, Freedom Solar has installed more than 281 megawatts of solar panels for tens of thousands of homeowners and hundreds of top companies such as Ford, Toyota, Whole Foods, Office Depot, Chevrolet, the University of Texas, and more.

Every idea starts with a problem. Ours was simple: solar was too complicated.

In 2007, the solar market was clouded by installers with aggressive sales tactics who were taking customers’ money but not with their best interests in mind. A solar installation requires 7+ steps, and most companies only cover 1 or 2, leaving the rest to the homeowner to figure out.

Our founders experienced this firsthand, as Bret was a homeowner who wanted solar for his home but couldn’t get any companies to return his call, and Adrian was a solar craftsman who was getting on roofs to fix solar installs left and right. These two idealists wondered, how could those companies who sell such a pure, important product for our future, do business in such a careless way? They partnered to build a truly full-service solar team that would put the customer in control, because ultimately, we give a damn! We hold ourselves accountable to your outcomes through a 25-year product, performance, and service warranty.

We staff in-house experts across sales, design, permitting, installation, and customer care. We hire people who are humble and hungry to leave the world a better place. We only install carefully curated high-quality solar technology, and we do so with an attention to detail, so you and your families can depend on the power.
