Job Description

Temporary Solar Installer – Brimley, MI

This is a great opportunity for a hands-on, hardworking individual to join a field crew for a solar installation project in Brimley, Michigan. This is a temporary position expected to run approximately 8 weeks, with a heavy hours schedule built in, so it's an excellent fit for someone looking to earn well over a short stretch.

Pay: $34.04 per hour.

Schedule: Plan on roughly 60 hours per week, typically 10 to 11 hour days. Schedule can vary depending on project needs and weather.

This role is almost entirely outdoor, hands-on construction work. You'll be on your feet, working with a crew, and exposed to job site conditions and weather throughout the project. Steel toe or composite toe boots are required on site.

What you'll be doing:

Working as part of a field crew to properly install solar systems from start to finish. This includes laying out job sites, operating equipment to bore holes or drive posts, pouring concrete, fastening and leveling racking, mounting solar panels, running wiring, and testing array output.

You'll also be building and taking down scaffolding and other temporary structures, digging trenches and backfilling holes, accessing and working on roofs (including ladder use and proper safety equipment), loading and unloading materials, and keeping the site clean and clear of hazards. You may also assist other tradespeople like carpenters or electricians as needed, and you'll be expected to follow direction from project managers and crew leaders at all times.

Maintaining strong attendance matters here. When you're not on site, it affects the whole crew and the project timeline.

You're encouraged to speak up. If something feels unsafe or you're concerned about product quality, stop and report it to your project manager or crew leader right away.

What you'll need:

A high school diploma or GED, a valid, non-suspended driver's license (interest in pursuing a CDL is a plus), and the ability to work well as part of a team while following instruction. Most importantly, you should be ready for physical, outdoor work and comfortable with a demanding schedule.
