About Us:

Distributed Sun (DSUN) is a clean energy infrastructure provider founded in 2009 that develops, finances, owns, and operates solar and battery storage projects across the community solar, commercial & industrial and utility-scale markets. It has developed and delivered systems – many the first-of-their-kind – in 17 states. It is in our DNA to be nimble, constructively challenging, forward thinking, and creative; we value those attributes in our team members – it’s how we’ve led and thrived over the last 15 years. You’ll join a team committed to accelerating the clean energy transition through smart infrastructure and bold thinking.

trucurrent, a DSUN on-site distributed energy resources company, provides end-to-end energy transition services for Fortune 500 companies and other enterprises. trucurrent integrates microgrid infrastructure aligned to regulatory and capital markets to deliver energy solutions at the grid edge. Trusted partners rely upon our energy transition roadmap services combined with development and financing solutions to meet or exceed their energy goals: economic, environmental and operational. Our focus is projects that serve C&I clients, data centers, EV charging infrastructure, and behind-the-meter battery storage applications.

The successful candidate will combine experience of most but not necessarily all of the responsibilities and qualifications listed below. trucurrent is an equal opportunity employer and values diversity. Employment decisions are made on the basis of qualifications, merit and business need. We encourage all qualified candidates to apply.

This role is ideal for someone with a strong track record in renewable energy sales or a background in project development who is looking to leverage their industry expertise and relationships to drive business growth. If you have a demonstrated ability to build trust-based relationships with clients, presenting tailored, value-driven solutions that align with customer needs, we’d love to hear from you.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
