What They Do
Haven Energy specializes in solar and battery backup systems for residential customers, aiming to make electricity cheaper, cleaner, and more reliable through integrated solar and home battery systems (source: havenenergy.com). The company operates on a brand-agnostic model, offering batteries from manufacturers such as FranklinWH, Tesla Powerwall, and Enphase, allowing for tailored solutions that meet individual customer needs during the design process (source: havenenergy.com). A key differentiator is that Haven owns and operates the systems it deploys, enabling it to claim commercial federal tax credits and pass those savings directly to customers, thus simplifying the process for homeowners (source: havenenergy.com). This full-service approach includes permitting, installation, monitoring, and ongoing maintenance, which helps to remove barriers to adoption for residential customers (source: havenenergy.com).
Projects & Track Record
Haven Energy has been actively deploying systems across California, particularly focusing on Southern California and disadvantaged areas of Los Angeles (source: havenenergy.com). As of April 2025, the company is involved in the Self-Generation Incentive Program's Residential Solar & Storage Equity (SGIP RSSE) framework, which represents a significant $280 million state initiative aimed at providing no-cost solar and battery systems to income-qualified customers (source: havenenergy.com). Haven also serves as the first Virtual Power Plant (VPP) partner for the Clean Power Alliance, collaborating with utility companies and community choice aggregators to deploy distributed battery systems (source: havenenergy.com).
Recent Developments
In April 2025, Haven Energy announced its participation in California's $280 million Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) RSSE framework, which allows the company to offer no-cost solar and battery systems to income-qualified customers (source: havenenergy.com). The company also expanded its partnerships with The Energy Coalition to provide battery systems to low- and moderate-income customers through the Bassett Avocado Heights Advanced Energy Community program (source: havenenergy.com). Additionally, Haven completed a Series A funding round raising $7 million approximately one year ago, bringing its total funding to $11.2 million (source: havenenergy.com).
Working There
Haven Energy's leadership team includes professionals with diverse backgrounds in technology, operations, finance, and service design, indicating a structured approach to its organizational focus (source: havenenergy.com). The company actively recruits for various positions and maintains a careers page, reflecting ongoing hiring efforts (source: havenenergy.com). With its primary administrative headquarters in Austin, Texas, Haven is currently focused on hiring in California while preparing to expand into Connecticut and Massachusetts (source: havenenergy.com).

Job Description
We're hiring an Experience Strategist to design and improve the post-sale customer and operator experience, across Haven's service delivery lifecycle, from system installation through Permission to Operate (PTO) and ongoing monitoring and maintenance (O&M)
This role sits at the intersection of operations, product, and customer support. You'll ensure our systems, processes, and tools work together as a cohesive whole-not a collection of disconnected parts.
You are both a strategist and builder: defining the experience vision while also driving implementation across tooling, workflows, and communication systems. You think in systems, use design thinking to cut through complexity, and are comfortable getting hands-on with CRM, automation, and AI tooling.
What you'll do
- Define the Experience. Craft and maintain a clear, compelling vision for the customer/partner experience from Installation > Ongoing customer engagement Advocate for simplicity, clarity, consistency across touchpoints (design, install, support, interconnection, service, etc.)
- Diagnose the Journey. Map journeys and workflows to identify friction and gaps for customer, operators, and partners. Focus on root causes across teams, tools, and processes
- Drive Cross-Functional Alignment. Act as a connective layer across Product, Ops, and Customer teams. Drive alignment on priorities, tradeoffs, and experience standards
- Shape Solutions & Implementation. Turn ambiguous problems into clear, executable plans. Partner with Product and Ops on implementation of processes and systems. Directly implement where needed-especially across CRM, automation workflows, and AI-enabled tools
Example initiatives you might own
- Customer communication systems (milestone-based, automated + human touchpoints, phone and sms tooling)
- CRM architecture and design to reflect real project status and facilitate easy updates
- Cross-functional handoffs (Sales → Install → Service)
- Fixing breakdowns in customer coordination or issue management that result in escalations
- Customer, operator, and partner feedback loops
- Internal and External Knowledge Bases, Agents, or Training Documentation to reduce user friction
You might be a great fit if
- Strong systems thinker-able to zoom out and into details, focused on simplifying complexity
- Analytically talented - abl to take structured and unstructured data to identify patterns and root causes
- Experienced in design thinking, service design, or experience strategy
- Technically fluent and hands-on (CRM, automation tools, AI)
