About the role

Sunrun is seeking an experienced Senior Legal Counsel to lead complex project finance transactions and provide strategic, risk‑informed advice across the energy portfolio. You will act as the in‑house legal expert, structuring, negotiating, and closing high‑value financings including tax equity and securitizations for distributed renewable energy. The role requires autonomy, strong business judgment, and the ability to collaborate with executive leadership.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
