Master Electrician

POSITION SUMMARY

Mayer Solar is seeking an experienced and licensed Master Electrician to serve in a critical in-office role supporting our growing solar installation operations.

A strong background in solar photovoltaic systems — including battery storage and backup installations — is essential.

Job Closeout & Compliance

• Oversee and ensure the accurate and timely closeout (tie-out) of all electrical jobs upon project completion
• Verify that all permits, inspections, and final sign-offs are completed in accordance with applicable codes and company standards
• Review as-built documentation and confirm accuracy before project close
• Maintain detailed records of completed work, open permits, and outstanding inspections
• Identify and resolve any discrepancies or deficiencies discovered during job reviews

Solar & Battery Systems

• Provide expertise on solar PV system design, installation standards, and performance expectations
• Support field teams on battery energy storage system (BESS) installations including Sonnen, Enphase, Tesla Powerwall, SolarEdge, and similar platforms
• Stay current on evolving battery backup codes, interconnection rules, and utility-specific requirements across service territories
• Review battery installation scopes and flag any compliance or safety concerns prior to dispatch

QUALIFICATIONS
