How to Apply for Solar Energy Advisor (Remote)

at Diem Energy

🏢 About Diem Energy

Diem Energy is building an AI platform to make solar energy transparent, ethical, and accessible, explicitly rejecting commission-driven sales tactics. As a small, mission-driven startup, it offers the chance to shape both the product and the culture from the ground up. You'd be joining a team that values honesty and innovation over quotas and pressure.

About This Role

As a Solar Energy Advisor, you'll conduct virtual appointments with Florida homeowners, explaining custom solar proposals and guiding interested customers to online checkout. Unlike traditional sales, there are no commissions or quotas—your success is measured by trust and transparency. You'll also directly influence the AI agents by providing conversation data and feedback, making this a unique blend of customer advisory and product development.

💡 A Day in the Life

You'll start by reviewing your schedule of virtual appointments with Florida homeowners, then conduct 2-3 live sessions explaining solar proposals and answering questions. Between calls, you'll log insights and feedback to help train Diem's AI agents. You might also join a brief team sync to discuss common homeowner objections and refine your approach.
