About this role

L2 Full-Stack Engineer  Who we are  Perch Energy is a mission-driven company that focuses on expanding access to clean and affordable energy through community solar. Community solar breaks down the traditional barriers preventing most people from participating in the renewable energy economy by making it accessible, affordable, and more equitable for all. We work in several states across the US to bring community solar to communities and individuals who can most benefit from a more inclusive energy system. By managing the customer experience for solar farm owners, Perch is able to bring electricity bill savings to the masses, from renters and homeowners to businesses, institutions, municipalities and more by connecting them to community solar projects in their area. Perch isn't just a for-profit company, we're a for-purpose company—accelerating the shift to renewables nationwide. Everyone deserves to benefit from clean energy.
