Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Files H-1B transfers

4 transfer filings in the last year, covering 4 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role

  • We want a builder who is equally comfortable debugging a gate driver at the bench and setting the technical direction for the entire electrical platform.

Responsibilities

  • Own specifications, topology selection, schematic capture, PCB layout strategy, board bring-up, validation, and reliability testing.
  • Build, mentor, and lead a team of electrical engineers. Set high standards for design rigor, validation methodology, and documentation. Create an environment where engineers do the best work of their careers.
  • Drive LV embedded systems and power converter design and validation across the product portfolio, including inverter power stages, battery pack architectures, and BMS.
  • Collaborate firmware, mechanical, test, reliability, and manufacturing teams to move products from prototype to high-volume production.
  • Own production end of line testers.
  • Champion continuous product improvement-drive design iterations informed by field data, manufacturing feedback, and evolving performance targets.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience in electrical system design, with significant time spent on systems like energy storage, inverters, EV charging, motor drives, or similar high-power applications.

Skills

  • You can write and run a transient thermal simulation in MATLAB or Python
  • Working knowledge of control theory as applied to power conversion-loop compensation, sensor bandwidth, filtering, and stability.
  • Experience with automotive or industrial communication protocols (CAN, LIN, Ethernet).
  • Proficiency with lab equipment including oscilloscopes, power analyzers, function generators, and programmable power supplies.
  • BSEE or higher, particularly with a focus on power electronics.
  • Experience designing products for UL/CSA/IEC certification and regulatory compliance.
  • Experience in high-volume manufacturing environments and DFM/DFT optimization.
  • Preferred Skills
  • Please note: Base is a startup, which means priorities shift and evolve quickly.
  • First Principles Thinking: Question assumptions. Principles > rules.
  • Operate at Base Pace: Focus on what matters, act quickly, and learn by doing.
  • DO THE BEST WORK OF YOUR LIFE AT BASE.

Compensation

  • Working knowledge of control theory as applied to power conversion—loop compensation, sensor bandwidth, filtering, and stability.
