About This Role

As a Revenue Assurance Analyst at Solar Landscape, you'll be responsible for monitoring subscription revenue collection across community solar projects, identifying discrepancies, and ensuring accurate financial reporting. This role directly impacts the company's financial health by preventing revenue leakage and supporting data-driven decisions for renewable energy subscriptions.
