Solar PV Designer — C&I Rooftop

About the Role

SafEarth Renewables Pvt Ltd delivers Owner's Engineer, project management and EPC oversight services across utility-scale solar, wind-solar hybrid and battery energy storage projects, alongside a growing C&I rooftop portfolio. We work on the owner's side of the table — protecting schedule, quality and returns from land to commissioning.

The Solar PV Designer supports the design and engineering of C&I rooftop solar PV projects — system layouts, generation analysis, site surveys and technical documentation. You will work closely with senior engineers and project teams, with exposure to the complete solar project lifecycle.

Location: Bengaluru (travel to sites for surveys) · Department: Design & Engineering · Reports to: Design Manager · Experience: 0–2 years; freshers with relevant knowledge are welcome · Openings: 1
