Description: Responsibilities: You will analyze rooftops from 5 views, from directly above, from north, from west, from south and from east. You will use a combination of these views to solve for the pitch and azimuth of roofs without having to make an actual trip to the house. This affords incredible savings in creating quotes. As you analyze roofs you must constantly be on the lookout for attributes of the house that will increase the cost of installation. When you identify these features you will increase the price of the quote you're creating by enabling different adders. For example, we charge more for installations on flat roofs because we need to install racks to hold the panels up in addition to the panels themselves. Compensation: $15/hr for 20 hours of training, then piecemeal by quote depending on quality of work, $20 to $30/hr once trained. To apply send a cover letter and resume to jobs@sungevity.com with 'RSD Applicant' in the subject line.
