About Aurora Solar
Aurora is on a mission to create a future of solar for all. Our award-winning software puts the power of data and technology into the hands of every solar professional to make solar adoption simple and predictable. Our software has designed millions of solar projects so far, empowering solar companies to sell, design, and install residential and commercial solar arrays accurately, seamlessly, and at scale.
We are a remote-first collaborative team of sustainable energy enthusiasts who love what we do. We’ve been named one of "The Best Mid-Sized Remote Companies To Work for in 2024" by BuiltIn.com and have been recognized for the second time as a Certified Green Business (CGB) with the city of San Francisco. We’re in this together to support the world’s transition to solar.
About the Team
You will lead a team that powers the platform underpinning all of Aurora’s software products, including leads, proposals, designs, and plan sets. The highly collaborative and deeply technical team partners closely with other product teams to build the foundation on which the transition to solar energy is taking place. On any given day the team will be gathering input and vision from the CEO, presenting proposed solutions to customers, or collaborating with other product teams to build elegant solutions that span the entire product suite.
About the Role
This role is highly collaborative and cross-functional, and the ideal leader speaks with ease to customers, engineering partners, executives, designers, researchers, subject matter experts, and other product managers. You will identify and build key components of our software platform, making them available to internal and external teams through shared workflows, integration frameworks, and API interfaces. Your focus on unlocking future opportunities will expand Aurora’s product suite to power the entire solar ecosystem and lead the transition to renewable energy.
