Overview

About Wunder

Wunder is building a Modern Energy Company.

We were founded with one simple vision: to address the greatest crisis of our generation by accelerating the deployment of solar energy. In doing so, we help businesses, municipalities, and schools save money by delivering clean on-site power. We convert simple warehouses into electrified industrial platforms built for the future. We enable the nation’s leading commercial and industrial real estate firms to capture the benefits of solar across their properties. We align ESG goals with revenue targets, and the renewable energy assets we’re deploying today will power America’s tomorrow.

Wunder currently holds more than $1 billion in solar assets under management and capital commitments. Our team has evaluated more than 10,000 properties for solar across all 50 states. Our average solar system – about 480 kilowatts in size – can offset 350,000 pounds of coal burned each year of system operation!

The Role

We have an amazing opportunity for an energetic, deal-oriented, and experienced solar development professional to solve hard problems and push renewable energy forward. Our solar development team is rapidly acquiring commercial customers and developing solar across the country, and we’re looking for more solar professionals to join our team to meet the needs of our growing national pipeline.

In this role, you’ll work in partnership with Wunder’s Account Management team to develop commercial-scale solar projects across the country. You’ll be responsible for managing the entire development process for a portfolio of solar projects, from initial site diligence to NTP and PTO. You’ll go beyond a traditional development role as you will also bring standardization into the untapped sub-megawatt commercial and industrial market by leveraging Wunder’s industry-leading technology platform. If you’re the type of candidate that we’re looking for, your ears just perked up!

If you get excited about unlocking the untapped commercial and industrial market, joining a team designed for hyper-growth, and building an organization aimed at saving the world, then this is the role for you.
