Installation Supervisor – Commercial Solar
Are you tired of wondering where your next project is going to be?
Do you want to work for one growing company, build a career, and know that when one project ends, you're moving on to the next one with the same team?
Buffalo Solar is a growing commercial solar EPC specializing in commercial rooftop solar and battery storage projects throughout New York. We're looking for an Installation Supervisor with commercial electrical or construction experience who wants steady work, overtime opportunities, benefits, and the chance to grow into greater field leadership responsibility.
This is a hands-on position working alongside our Construction Supervisor to lead the day-to-day field execution of our commercial solar projects. Solar experience is not required. If you understand commercial electrical or construction work, can read plans, and know how to keep a crew and jobsite moving, we can teach you solar.
What You'll Do
- Help lead daily installation activities and subcontractor crews.
- Review project plans and electrical drawings and make sure work is installed correctly.
- Monitor installation quality, productivity, safety, and schedule.
- Identify and help resolve field issues.
- Make sure upcoming projects are prepared before crews arrive onsite.
- Receive, stage, secure, and track project materials, tools, and equipment.
- Maintain organized and safe jobsites.
- Help keep company vehicles, trailers, tools, and field equipment ready for work.
- Support punch-list completion and project closeout.
What We're Looking For
- 2+ years of commercial electrical, construction, or similar field experience.
- Ability to read electrical drawings and construction plans.
- Working knowledge of electrical construction and the NEC.
- Strong field problem-solving and organizational skills.
- Ability to communicate effectively with crews, subcontractors, customers, and project teams.
- Comfortable working on commercial rooftops and active construction sites.
- Valid driver's license and ability to travel to project sites.
- Solar experience is a plus, but not required.
Build a Career, Not Just the Next Project
We're looking for someone who wants more than the next construction job. Buffalo Solar continues to grow its commercial project portfolio, and this position has the opportunity to grow with it.
You'll have the stability of working for one company, exposure to a rapidly growing part of the electrical industry, overtime opportunities, company benefits, and a path toward greater responsibility supervising commercial solar installations.
Compensation: $33.00 - $36.00 per hour
Our Story
At Buffalo Solar, our mission is bold and crystal clear, power 1,000 businesses with clean, reliable solar energy by 2035.
We specialize in commercial and industrial rooftop solar solutions that help companies cut operating costs, lock in predictable energy expenses, and meet long-term sustainability goals. Every project we deliver is designed to perform as a true business asset, driving savings, stability, and growth for decades to come.
Founded in Buffalo, NY, Buffalo Solar was built from the ground up by Founder and CEO, Tyler Uebelhoer. With more than a decade of experience as an electrician and construction professional, Tyler recognized solar as the industry where he could make the biggest impact, not just for businesses, but for the economy and communities of Western New York. What started in his South Buffalo living room in 2015 has evolved into a modern solar development and EPC company serving organizations across New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey, and beyond.
Over the past 10 years, Buffalo Solar has grown from a local startup into a trusted regional partner, yet our approach remains hands-on and personal. From the first consultation through post-installation support, we stay closely connected to every client to ensure their system is reliable, efficient, and built for long-term value.
We care so deeply about the businesses we serve that we developed our own in-house 15-Year Peace of Mind Warranty, providing unmatched protection that separates us from the rest of the industry.
Our vision is ambitious but simple, 1,000 businesses powered by Buffalo Solar by 2035. We have already come a long way from our beginnings in Western New York, and we are just getting started.
