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.
As a Software Engineer on the Markets team, you’ll build and automate the decisions our battery fleet and financial commitments run on, from real-time battery dispatch to long-term market participation. You’ll take ambiguous, high-stakes market and control problems and turn them into reliable, automated infrastructure: the simulators, models, and trading-strategy systems behind how our batteries buy, sell, and dispatch power.
This role has direct, measurable impact on Base’s top and bottom line. You’ll ship production decision infrastructure with backtest automation and regression-safe releases, deliver measurable improvements to our battery dispatch and control policies, and help bring ML-based methods like model-predictive control and imitation learning into production as we expand into new market modalities and geographies.
Base’s Markets team owns the systems that decide how our fleet of batteries buys, sells, and dispatches power across every market we operate in. Every dollar of revenue and every megawatt of grid support we deliver runs through a decision this team automates — from real-time battery dispatch to long-term financial commitments. As we expand into new markets and geographies, the fundamentals get harder: more uncertainty, more constraints, more money on the line.
This team gets to define, from scratch, how a distributed battery fleet should behave in power markets that were never built for it, with direct, measurable impact on Base’s top and bottom line.
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.
