Base is building the foundation of American power. The grid is the largest, most complex machine in the world. Yet it’s aging, struggling to keep up with today’s demand, and is unprepared for our electrified future.
Base is modernizing the grid as the first engineering-led, technology-driven power company. We’re deploying a nationwide network of distributed batteries that strengthens critical infrastructure and saves Americans money.
Our team of engineers, operators, creatives, technicians, and electricians design and deploy systems at speed. If you want to tackle the problem that will define this century and shape the future of American energy, now is the time. Join us.
About the RoleWe are looking for someone to support the build-out of our capital markets machine that funds our growth. The finance team at Base is very lean, and this role will be tasked with supporting our capital planning and related transactions across debt, equity, and tax credits.
Base’s business model is capital intensive, and increasingly so over time given our hyper-growth. Cracking the capital markets will be one of the core enablers of our success and long-term differentiation. This is an intellectually challenging and stimulating role at the heart of creative financing for a new, category defining asset class.
What You’ll Do
Support fundraising efforts with scenario modeling that assess the impact of new capital structures, including as Base scales and deepens its reliance on project finance and tax equity.
Partner with engineering and manufacturing teams to most effectively finance our factory and hardware design build-out.
Maintain Base’s brand in capital markets while interfacing with external parties.
What You'll Bring
2+ years of experience in investing, investment banking, and/or a capital markets role at an operating company.
Comfort engaging with engineering-led systems (e.g., SQL databases) to extract financial and operational performance.
Experience with modeling capital intensive businesses or project finance/tax equity structures.
Experience in manufacturing, energy, power, renewables, infrastructure.
Effective verbal and written communication skills.
We’re building a winning culture and we’re looking for people who are up for the challenge. Here’s what we expect from day one:
In-Person Only: We work full-time in the office. No hybrid. No remote.
Challenge the Status Quo: Question assumptions. Fix broken systems. Principles > rules.
Move Fast: Focus on what matters, act quickly, and learn by doing.
Give & Get Feedback: Be direct, be humble. Challenge ideas–including your own.
Own the Outcome: Take full responsibility. Deliver results. No excuses.
Act Like an Owner: Be resourceful, mindful of impact, and committed to the business.
Be Decisive: Drive clarity. Make bold calls with imperfect info.
Bring the Intensity: This is not a 9-to-5. We're building something hard which requires real commitment.

What We Do
Our mission at Base is to fix the power grid and enable affordable and reliable electricity for all. As America electrifies, our outdated power systems strain leaving families vulnerable to outages and rising costs. Base deploys home batteries that maintain household power during outages while stabilizing the grid day-to-day.
By creating a distributed energy storage network across Texas, we're making electricity more reliable & affordable, and laying the foundation for energy abundance at scale.
