SolarSesame is a top-rated residential solar and roofing installer (CSLB #1116168) serving California, known for premium installations of Tesla Powerwalls, Qcells, Hyundai, REC panels, and Enphase microinverters. With 4.7-star average reviews, we’ve built a reputation for excellence and customer satisfaction. As a full-service construction company, we handle everything in-house—from consultation to installation—completing most projects within six weeks.
Unlike many solar companies, we do not outsource operations or make setters wait months to get paid. Our canvassing team is paid quickly, supported heavily, and given a real opportunity to grow into closers and future leaders within the company.
We are currently seeking an experienced Door-to-Door Sales Manager to recruit, train, and lead a team of appointment setters focused on generating qualified solar consultations.
