A senior saas developer for solar companies

A solar installer that has learned how to survey roofs, design arrays, handle permits and track installs without losing jobs in paperwork holds a workflow other installers would pay to use every month. Turning that workflow into a subscription product means one install-management system that many solar firms sign up to, each with its own customers, projects, designs and crews kept apart from every other installer.

The tenants here are installers, dealers and EPC firms, and a solar project moves through stages that cannot be fudged. A roof survey, a panel layout, a permit pack, an install date and a utility interconnection each need their own documents, owners and deadlines, and one installer's customer list must never appear in another installer's pipeline. Each tenant needs its own products, price books and crew calendars.

If the firm only needs project software for its own crews, a single-business system is cheaper and this product machinery is waste. If it intends to sell the system to other installers, tenancy, per-project billing and signup an installer owner can finish without help belong in the first release. Book a free discovery call to test whether other installers would pay a subscription for this before any build is scoped.

What you get

What this engagement covers for solar companies

  • Tenant installers, kept apart — Each solar firm gets its own tenant: its customers, projects, designs, permits and crews visible only to its own team. A dealer and its sub-installers can share a project view without seeing any other firm's pipeline.
  • Plans priced by projects and installers — Tiers follow how installers buy: by active projects, by installer seats, or by locations, with trials that cover a real project from survey to install rather than an empty demo.
  • Signup an installer owner can finish alone — A new firm creates its account, adds its products and price book, sets its project stages and invites its sales and install teams, with guided first steps that match a real first install.
  • Surveys, designs and permits per project — Each project carries its roof survey, panel layout, equipment list and permit documents in order, so nothing stalls because a document sits in someone's inbox.
  • Crews, install dates and interconnection tracking — Crew calendars, install dates and utility interconnection steps are tracked per project, with delays visible early enough to warn the customer before the install week.
  • An admin view for the product owner — The business sees tenants, trials, failed payments and support requests in one place, and can pause a tenant or help with a stuck project without touching its customers or any other installer's data.
Systems this industry runs

Built around the tools solar companies already use

The build starts with the tenant boundary at project level, because one installer seeing another's customers or price book ends the product. Customers, projects, designs, permits and crews are modelled per tenant from the first table, and tests deliberately try to read across tenants, including through dealer relationships and shared crew accounts.

Launch is proven on a real install, not a demo project. A small group of real installers runs live projects on subscription, from survey and design through permit and install to interconnection, and billing, document handling and support are fixed from what those firms actually hit before the product opens wider. Code, billing setup and hosting stay in the business's own accounts.

How it works

From kickoff to delivery for solar companies

  1. Map the paying installer and its first project

    The buyer, the subscription and the first-project journey are defined, and scope is cut to the smallest system an installer would keep paying for after its first completed install.

  2. Build the tenant boundary before any feature

    Customers, projects and permits are modelled per tenant first, with cross-tenant reading attempts tested before design features are layered on top.

  3. Wire billing to projects and add project stages

    Plans, trials and payments are connected, and survey, design, permit and install stages are built and tested with real project documents.

  4. Pilot with real installers through an install

    A small group of real installers runs live projects on subscription, and billing, onboarding and support are fixed from their experience before wider launch.

Why Omer

Why hire Omer

  • Install-first scope, not feature lists: Scope follows a real install: survey, design, permit, install and interconnection, so the first release covers a cycle an installer recognises.
  • Tenant tests that try to break isolation: Isolation is attacked in testing, through dealer links and shared crews, because a customer or price-book leak between installers cannot be repaired with an apology.
  • Documents that follow the project: Surveys, layouts and permits sit on the project in order, so a job does not stall on a missing file.
  • Billing matched to how installers buy: Tiers follow active projects, seats or locations, and trials cover a real install, so pricing reads as fair to the buyer.
  • Handover the business actually owns: Code, billing and hosting belong to the business, documented for the team that grows the product.
FAQ

Questions, answered

When does a solar firm need SaaS instead of software for its own use?
When it intends to sell the install system to other solar firms. Project software for its own crews needs a single-business system; a system sold to many installers needs tenants, billing and signup machinery, and that machinery is only worth building when subscriptions are the plan.
How do you stop one installer seeing another installer's customers and price books?
By modelling every customer, project, design, permit and crew record under a tenant from the start, and testing cross-tenant access deliberately, including dealer relationships. An installer's data is never filtered at display time only.
How does billing work when install volume is seasonal?
Plans are built around installer buying patterns, such as active projects, seats or locations, with trials that cover a real install. Failed payments trigger reminders and a clear grace path agreed before launch, so a firm is not cut off mid-project without warning.
Can an installer owner set the system up without training?
That is the design goal. Signup, product and price-book setup, stage setup and team invites are tested with people who have never seen the product, and the points where they stall are redesigned until most firms get through unaided.
Who owns the solar product, its data and its billing?
The business does: code, billing setup, hosting and documentation. Each installer tenant owns its own customers and project records inside the product, and the product can be grown by any competent team from the handover.
