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.
The Senior Cost Accountant will be responsible for supporting and building the build out of the cost accounting function and its underlying systems, as well as supporting accounting efforts related to deployed inventory. This role will partner closely with operations, engineering, supply chain, and finance teams to support a smooth production ramp‑up and ensure accurate financial data capture throughout the process.
Supported by best‑in‑class technology resources and tools, this position offers a unique opportunity to join at the ground level and help shape systems and processes from the start.
Base is scaling a hardware-plus-energy business and our accounting team builds the financial foundation that makes that scale possible. The team designs and runs the systems that turn manufacturing activity, member agreements, and energy market participation into accurate, decision-ready financials — so leadership knows exactly where we're making money, where we're not, and how fast we can grow. This work directly shapes pricing, investment, and operational strategy, not after the fact but in real time as the company evolves.
An exceptional candidate will be excited to build principles-first processes in a complex business and have a clear line of sight from debits and credits to the decisions that determine Base's trajectory.
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.
