About this Licensed Solar Electrician -Residential Wireman/Journeyman role at Freedomsolarpower
Solar Electricians Who Mean Business: This One’s for You
Austin, TX | Full-Time | On-Site
Some jobs pull wire. This one powers an entire revolution — and puts you at the center of it.
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 panels. 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 electrical mastery in your hands and hustle in your blood, this is your shot to do more than run conduit. You'll walk into homes as a skilled technician, execute precise solar electrical installations, upgrade service panels, and bring whole-home energy systems to life. Solar, batteries, generators — you'll be the hands-on expert making Energy Empowerment real, one installation at a time. Every job is local, and you'll roll in your own company truck.
Competitive pay and performance bonuses on top.
- Install electrical equipment and circuits, complete DC conduit runs, and interconnect PV systems to existing residential services.
- Upgrade customer electrical service as needed — main panel upgrades and meter bases, external disconnects, and code compliance assessments.
- Perform system testing — voltage, amperage, and power tests for each installation.
- Complete commissioning and inspection checklists with precision.
- Follow and enforce safety procedures and protocols on every job site.
- Support service work orders and assist with other duties as assigned.
