ABOUT BASE 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. ABOUT THE ROLE We’re looking for a strategic operator to own some of Base’s most important, least defined problems from start to finish. You’ll own outcomes: the high-stakes, cross-functional projects and you’ll be accountable for getting each one done. The mandate is whatever matters most. In a given quarter that might mean standing up a new business line, underwriting the financial case for one we’re considering, getting a major deal across the line, or deeply integrating with a key supplier. The common thread is that each problem is large, ambiguous, and consequential, and that you own it end to end. What You’ll Do The following are a set of non-exhaustive examples of the type of work you would do: * Lead the full integration of a recently acquired business, from day-one compliance and systems migration through people, brand, and operating decisions, while protecting the acquired company’s performance. * Own business line creation: build the plan for a new product, the financial model, and the timeline yourself, then line up and direct the internal teams, partners, and outside advisors needed to execute * Uplevel and expand upon a function at the company. Set goals, make hiring decisions, and transition to a leader for that team once its setup well * Enable efficient scale: as we meaningfully expand the number of GWh, customers, partners, and geographies, take on hard operational problems that are cross-disciplinary in nature and run them to ground to allow the company to scale. What You’ll Bring * A track record of building and scaling an operation, function, or business, ideally one you owned end to end rather than advised from the outside. * Commercial instincts. You can structure a deal, negotiate terms, and hold high level meetings with counterparties. * Financial acumen to build a model, underwrite an investment, and hold a transaction together. * Strong follow-through. You’re at your best in the weeds, you keep dozens of threads straight, and nothing falls through. * High autonomy and judgment. You can take an ambiguous problem, form a plan, and drive it without being managed. * Strong fits include operators from high-growth companies and former consultants, bankers, or investors who have owned a project end to end, not just advised on one. Please note: Base is a startup, which means priorities shift and evolve quickly. Your role may expand or change based on the needs of the business at any given time, so the responsibilities listed may not be exhaustive. OUR VALUES * First Principles Thinking: Question assumptions. Principles > rules. * Operate at Base Pace: Focus on what matters, act quickly, and learn by doing. * Give & Get Feedback: Be direct, be humble, and maintain a growth mindset. * Everyone’s an Owner: Follow through on commitments and own results. * Strong Opinions, Loosely Held: Drive clarity and make calls with imperfect information. * Committed to the Mission: 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. * Fun & Optimism Coexist with Grit: Collaboration and celebration coincide with the intensity of building real things. DO THE BEST WORK OF YOUR LIFE AT BASE.
