About The Position

Cypress Creek Solutions, the Operations and Maintenance arm of Cypress Creek Energy, is seeking a full-time Array Service Technician to perform preventative and corrective maintenance on solar photovoltaic systems. The technician will conduct on-site service, troubleshooting, testing, and repairs at project sites, and will create service and downtime reports while maintaining equipment and spare-parts inventory.
