Dandelion Energy is transforming how homes are heated and cooledāstarting from (below) the ground up. As the nationās leading residential geothermal company, we design, install, and maintain all-in-one heating and cooling systems that are cleaner, quieter, and up to 4x more efficient than traditional HVAC, with a focus on large, scaled deployments to large homebuilders. Weāre an ambitious (and growing) team on a mission to revolutionize home heating.
Backed by Google Ventures (GV) and other top tech investors, our end-to-end geothermal solution is breaking the status quo of residential heating and cooling technology, and weāre scaling rapidly to meet demand. Whether weāre serving national homebuilders or individual homeowners, our mission is the same: to make geothermal the default choice for heating and cooling in the U.S.
As a Driller Helper at Dandelion Energy, youāll have the opportunity to gain hands-on training in different parts of our geothermal field operations. Depending on project needs, you may be focused on supporting drilling rigs, mixing grout and filling bores with grout, or digging trenches and supporting trenching operations. Assignments can shift over time, and you may work exclusively in one area for a period or rotate between them. This flexibility is an important part of the role and a great way to build a diverse skill set for a career in renewable energy construction.
