Commercial Solar Site Assessor


Buffalo Solar Solutions, Inc. – Western NY / Northeast Travel


About the Role


Buffalo Solar is seeking a Commercial Solar Site Assessor to support the development of rooftop solar projects across the Northeast. This role is critical to ensuring accurate system design, pricing, and execution by capturing detailed site information the first time.


You will work directly with our engineering, sales, and project teams while engaging with facility managers and property owners on-site.
What You’ll Do


  • Conduct on-site assessments of commercial and industrial properties for rooftop solar feasibility

  • Safely access rooftops (primarily flat roofs) to take measurements, evaluate conditions, and document layout constraints

  • Utilize drone technology, where appropriate, to capture aerial imagery and site data to support design and analysis

  • Assess structural elements including roof type, decking visibility, and general building conditions

  • Evaluate electrical infrastructure including service panels, distribution equipment, and potential points of interconnection

  • Capture detailed photos, measurements, and notes to support engineering and design

  • Engage with facility managers and building owners professionally to gather information and coordinate access

  • Lead internal post-site assessment meetings to communicate findings and guide design decisions

  • Ensure all data is accurate, complete, and documented properly to avoid rework
What We’re Looking For


  • Experience in commercial solar, electrical, construction, or a related field

  • Strong understanding of electrical systems (panels, services, interconnection concepts)

  • Comfortable working at heights and accessing rooftops safely

  • Ability to navigate tight or confined spaces (attics, mechanical rooms, etc.) when needed

  • Strong attention to detail — ability to capture everything correctly the first time

  • Excellent communication skills — able to interact with both technical teams and non-technical facility staff

  • Team-oriented mindset — understands their role impacts the success of the entire project

  • Willingness to travel to project sites across the Northeast if needed
