Build a Career in Residential Energy — With Real Income From Week One

California electricity rates aren't slowing down, and Antelope Valley homeowners are actively looking for guidance on solar and battery storage. SolarShoppers — voted AVS Best — is hiring a Residential Energy Consultant to meet with homeowners, analyze their energy usage, and design custom solar and storage solutions.

This is a consultative role built for experienced sellers who want a structured ramp, weekly income while they build their pipeline, and uncapped earning potential once they're rolling.

What You'll Do

Conduct in-home and on-site energy consultations with Antelope Valley homeowners
Review utility bills, usage patterns, and roof/property conditions to design the right system
Educate homeowners on solar economics, financing, tax credits, NEM 3.0, and battery backup
Build your own client base through neighborhood outreach, referrals, community events, and networking
Walk customers through proposals, contracts, and the path to a finished install
Stay current on California utility rate changes and incentive programs

Monthly performance bonuses:
- $1,000 bonus for 3 installs in a month
- $2,500 bonus for 5+ installs in a month

Year 1 consultants: $80K–$120K
Experienced consultants: $150K+
No cap on commissions or bonuses
