About the role

As Base scales to thousands of homes per month across Texas and into new markets, the install-cost-per-home curve and the service-cost-per-fleet-year curve are two of the most consequential lines in the long-range plan.
The Base finance & business operations team is responsible for providing clear visibility on past and future performance across the business, financing our growth, capital allocation decisions, and supporting the broader Base team on key performance drivers.
Please note: Base is a startup, which means priorities shift and evolve quickly.

Own the forecast and BvA for install cost, field labor, logistics, permitting, and ongoing O&M - at a level of accuracy that survives both the operator's eye and the corporate model.
Build the unit-cost model for installations - flexed across geographies, channels, crew structures, and site complexity - and reconcile it weekly against job-level data from the field.
Partner with deployments and field-service leadership on the cost-down roadmap - drive install-cost-per-home down, route density up, and rework out of the system.
Own the financial framework for the 10+ year service obligation - truck rolls, parts consumption, warranty reserves, and fleet lifecycle margin - and translate it into the per-battery economics that govern the unit model.
Sit at the intersection of field ops, supply chain, customer service, and accounting - feed clean, defensible inputs into the consolidated corporate model and translate the model back into something a crew lead can act on.
Track record of building install-cost or service-cost models that drove real cost-down programs in production - not just running someone else's model.
Comfortable in the field - will ride along on an install, walk a service yard, and pressure-test a number with a crew lead before defending it to the CEO/COO.

Base is America's next-generation power company.
We're rebuilding the foundation of modern civilization-electricity-by deploying a vast network of distributed batteries that is transforming today's fragile, centralized grid into a resilient and abundant system.
We are engineers, operators, and creatives solving some of the most complex, interdisciplinary challenges of our time.
To succeed, Base must raise and deploy tens of billions of dollars, maintain sustainable unit economics, exercise extreme operating leverage, and balance supply/demand and growth/profitability in a complex and high-pace environment.
The Finance team enables these by (i) building toward omniscience with sharp analytics and tools for observability, (ii) integrating with the business to support operational decisions, (iii) establishing tight controls and processes to cull complexity, and (iv) presenting Base to investors effectively.
