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.
The Deployment Operations team builds the systems and processes that turn new utility partnerships into batteries deployed in the field.
We work at the intersection of utility partners, field operations, and Base's internal teams to take partnerships from signed agreement through Permission to Operate and build the operational foundation required to scale.
As Base enters new markets and launches new utility partnerships, the team tackles complex, first-of-their-kind deployment challenges, defines how we operate with each partner, and turns what we learn into repeatable systems.
We move quickly, stay close to the details, and work cross-functionally to keep deployments moving while building for long-term scale.
Base is a startup, which means priorities shift and evolve quickly.
Rebuilding the grid is a big challenge.
We work hard because we care deeply about the impact we're creating.
We work in-person.
It's not a 9-to-5.
We are all-in.
