About the company:
Solar Landscape is a commercial rooftop solar developer headquartered in the United States that builds, owns, and operates large-scale solar energy systems on commercial rooftops. Founded in 2012 by construction experts, the company has developed more than 75 million square feet of commercial rooftop solar across the country, earning recognition as the number one commercial rooftop solar developer nationally for consecutive years. Its core business model involves leasing rooftops from commercial real estate partners, installing and owning the solar infrastructure, and delivering clean energy back to the grid — requiring no capital investment from property owners.
Solar Landscape is also a leading provider of community solar programs, enabling local residents and businesses near its solar installations to access affordable clean energy. The company partners with major commercial real estate investment trusts (REITs), logistics companies, and storage operators, helping them generate ancillary revenue from unused rooftop space while advancing their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals. Partners have included prominent firms such as Prologis, Principal, Heitman, and National Storage Affiliates Trust.
What distinguishes Solar Landscape is its vertically integrated approach — managing development, construction, ownership, and ongoing operations of its solar assets — combined with a strong focus on community benefit and workforce development in clean energy careers. The company secured a $600 million debt facility in 2026 to accelerate distributed energy deployment at scale, underscoring its commitment to expanding access to renewable energy across diverse communities throughout the United States.
About Us
Solar Landscape is the leading commercial rooftop solar developer in the U.S. Only 4% of commercial rooftops host solar today — we’re changing that, fast. Commercial rooftop solar is the fastest, smartest way to build new clean power — delivering megawatts of generation in months, not years, and powering America’s energy and future right where it’s needed most. By turning rooftops into local power plants, we’re reshaping how — and how fast — energy gets built in the U.S.
Recognized as the #1 Distributed Generation Developer by New Project Media, the #1 National Commercial Rooftop Solar Developer by Solar Power World, and winner of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Grand Prize for Clean Energy, Solar Landscape is defining the future of energy generation in America.
Headquartered in Asbury Park, New Jersey, Solar Landscape has offices in Chicago, Baltimore, and New York City and operates in over a dozen states nationwide.
We move fast, solve hard problems, and take our work seriously — but never ourselves. We value clear thinking, accountability, and execution. At the same time, we’re collaborative by default, and believe the best work happens when people enjoy working together. Our team is made up of smart, grounded people who show up for each other — whether that’s troubleshooting a system design or catching up over lunch.
If you’re looking to do meaningful work in a high-performance environment — and be part of the team reshaping how energy gets built in the U.S. — we’d love to meet you.
