Program summary

Put Your Military Training to Work in America's Clean Energy Future NextEra Energy Resources is one of America's largest wholesale electricity generators — and we're looking for transitioning service members who are ready to bring their technical skills, discipline, and mission-focus to the solar energy industry. Our 90-day SkillBridge internship places you directly at our solar sites where you'll work alongside experienced energy professionals maintaining and operating utility-scale solar PV systems. This is hands-on, real-world experience in a high-demand field — not a classroom.

Roles & job description

What You'll Be Doing as a Solar Field Technician intern, you'll support daily operations across solar PV collection assemblies and AC/DC inverters, performing electrical, mechanical, and electronic troubleshooting, preventive and corrective maintenance, safety and environmental compliance, and inventory and asset management. You will also support regional teammates across nearby states — mission variety you'll recognize from your service. Why Your Military Background Is a Perfect Fit you have worked in a technical MOS — electrical, mechanical, power generation, avionics, or similar field. You already have the foundation we are looking for. NextEra values the discipline, safety mindset, and technical aptitude that military service develops.

Interview prep for this program
Ask them
  • ▸ "How many of your past SkillBridge interns received full-time offers?" — a serious program knows the number.
  • ▸ "Who will my day-to-day mentor be, and what does week one look like?"
  • ▸ "The listing says 61 - 90 days — can that flex to my approved window if my command shortens it?"
  • ▸ "Is relocation expected for a full-time offer, or can I convert where I am?"
  • ▸ Confirm the eligibility notes above — ask exactly what they need from you and when.
Bring to the conversation
  • ✓ Your projected start window and separation date (from your profile)
  • ✓ Your command's approval status — even "packet drafted" signals you're serious
  • ✓ Your civilian-translated resume bullets (generate them here)
  • ✓ A written training-plan ask — you'll need it for your packet anyway
