Scott Lowery - Efficiency Training Lead, Energy Efficiency Operations

"I love that SolarCity has the opportunity to affect climate change on a national scale. Home performance is a really important component of energy consumption and CO2 emissions in the US. The people here at SolarCity are really smart, motivated and inspiring. Together we can make a huge impact.

I train our crews to do energy efficiency audits and home energy evaluations. When I'm not traveling to train auditors in person, I provide field support and work to design ways to help homeowners become more energy efficient."

Marcelo Macedo - Installer, Operations

"What I love most about working for SolarCity is the passion of our employees and customers. I've met people with very diverse backgrounds, jobs and educations, but everyone is excited about solar as a clean energy alternative.

Plus, my "office" on the roof-top is pretty amazing. Fresh air, sunshine and nice views are among the great benefits of being a solar installer.

One of my most exciting projects I've worked on at SolarCity was Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson. Seeing solar systems on every single house gave the visual feel of a real life solar city."

Zabia Geisreiter - Inside Solar Consultant, Inside Sales

"What I love most about SolarCity are the friendly, young, driven, dedicated colleagues that I get to work with everyday. I feel like we are all working as a team to help the planet one solar home at a time.

It's been exciting to watch SolarCity grow from 3 states to 11 in a year. My career has also grown since I joined SolarCity. We are part of a team here, everyone works to help each other. Having this support from colleagues and managers makes it easy to grow and expand my role."

Arnold Kelly - Sr. Technical Support Engineer, Customer Care

"What I love most about working for SolarCity is the culture and principles of the founders. This is evident in the devotion to our customers and passion for doing the job right.

One of the most exciting things about SolarCity is having the opportunity to work on both residential and commercial jobs. Watching our efficient and detail-oriented crews makes me feel proud of what we can accomplish as a team.

I work directly with customers and operation managers to set up our online monitoring services, SolarGuard and PowerGuide.

SolarCity is one of the few places I've worked in my 20 year career that I truly enjoy. I feel really great at the end of the day and look forward to the next one."

Emily Yang - Incentives Manager, UAG Group

"What I love most about SolarCity is the fast paced atmosphere and the don't hesitate to grab an opportunity approach. SolarCity has become the nation's leader in the solar industry, due in part to the company's culture to quickly adapt and act.

One of the most exciting things about SolarCity was that on my first day pulling into the parking lot, I arrived in a land of bright green Priuses, Teslas and bicycles. This was quite a refreshing change compared to my previous job in the automotive industry where Hummers and SUVs dominated the employee parking lot.

I feel like SolarCity offers me the infinite ability to reach my potential—it is seriously limitless here. As long as you can think your way around a problem, you will be successful."

Jenna Kappelt - Drafting Manager, Engineering

"What I love most about working for SolarCity are the young, smart, professionals committed personally and professionally to sustainability. The excitement and human energy in the Engineering department rivals the impressive number of megawatts of solar energy that we design every month.

One of the most exciting things about SolarCity is that we are shaping the way communities perceive energy use and solar power's undeniable place in our everyday lives.

I design residential systems. I hope to improve solar system design to a point where the entire lifecycle of the solar system becomes more affordable and desirable for the homeowner than their traditional utility."

Juan Vega - Operations Project Finance Manager

"What I love most about working for SolarCity is the people—humble, hardworking, genuine individuals.

When researching the clean energy industry, I found that SolarCity was on a trajectory to grow into being the industry leader and I wanted to be part of it. SolarCity has exceeded my expectations and I am thrilled to be part of the rapid growth—which has doubled annually.

I interact with all aspects of the operations, from sales to installations and interconnection. Interacting with the different departments has helped me understand the industry and process better than any educational course. At SolarCity we are one team."

Dave Schonberg - Residential Manager, Engineering

"What I love most about working for SolarCity is that I can directly impact the growth of solar energy and decrease our dependence on non-renewable energy in the United States. I had a teacher who taught me about the negative impact of carbon based fuels on the environment and how renewable energy can positively impact our world. His words stayed with me and I am able to bring his vision for the future to life at SolarCity.

I started as a residential solar system designer—where I completed over 200 designs. As the company has grown, so have my responsibilities. I now manage the residential design team, consisting of 30 PV System Designers and three Team Leads."
