From Base Power Company's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
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.
We're building BaseOS — the operating system that runs the modern power company. It coordinates thousands of distributed batteries, powers our internal operations, and enables us to deliver reliable, low-cost electricity at scale.
As a software engineer on this team, you'll build and operate real services that BaseOS depends on — services that control real hardware in real homes. You'll work across the stack, from backend systems and APIs to the infrastructure they run on, and you'll grow quickly because the problems here don't fit into a tidy box. This is a role for engineers who want to learn by shipping, take ownership early, and work on systems that touch the physical world.
America's power grid is failing — electricity costs have risen even as generation gets cheaper, and blackouts are becoming more common. We're building the software that fixes it. Our team owns the entire stack: firmware that controls batteries in thousands of homes, trading algorithms that buy and sell power in real-time markets, distributed commanding systems that orchestrate a growing fleet as a single grid asset, factory software for our Austin manufacturing line, and the product experience that makes it all invisible to
homeowners. If you want to write code that physically moves electrons, ships hardware, and reshapes critical infrastructure, this is the job.
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
Question assumptions. Principles > rules.
Focus on what matters, act quickly, and learn by doing.
Be direct, be humble, and maintain a growth mindset.
Follow through on commitments and own results.
Drive clarity and make calls with imperfect information.
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.
Collaboration and celebration coincide with the intensity of building real things.
Do the best work of your life at Base.
