Lunar Energy

Compensation

Public job postings indicate competitive base pay plus equity or stock options. A California Senior Embedded Firmware Engineer posting listed an estimated salary range of $150,000-$180,000, while a Staff Firmware Engineer posting listed $200,000-$230,000. UK postings describe competitive salary plus stock options, 25 days of annual leave, pension matching, and other benefits. Public job postings ask candidates about sponsorship, but the company does not appear to publish a universal sponsorship policy; third-party immigration and H-1B data indicate sponsorship has occurred, especially for technical roles.

Pricing

Residential pricing is quote-based and delivered through installation partners. Customers can generally purchase with cash, use a solar loan, or use a lease or power-purchase-agreement structure through partners such as Sunrun. Sunrun has marketed Lunar systems through monthly lease plans that can start at $0 down. Lunar Gridshare and enterprise services use negotiated, business-to-business pricing.
