Do you want to join a fast-growing international climate tech company?

The world needs to increase the amount of renewable energy to battle climate change. Glint Solar is an Oslo-based startup accelerating the growth of solar energy by making it fast and simple to find the best solar project locations.

Solar energy is growing at a tremendous rate, but reducing early risks and making data driven decisions from the start is increasingly crucial for solar developers. Our innovative software allows solar developers to identify suitable areas of land and analyze the potential power production from the area in a much quicker way than what’s currently available. Our goal is to drastically speed up renewable energy adoption by making it fast and simple to develop solar projects, in order to accelerate what we call the Solar Revolution.

Between us you will find people who: love cross-country skiing, enjoy cooking new dishes, play frisbee golf, and DJ on the weekend. So what do we have in common?
