About Base

Base is building the foundation of American power. The grid is the largest, most complex machine in the world. Yet it’s aging, struggling to keep up with today’s demand, and is unprepared for our electrified future.

Base is modernizing the grid as the first engineering-led, technology-driven power company. We’re deploying a nationwide network of distributed batteries that strengthens critical infrastructure and saves Americans money.

Our team of engineers, operators, creatives, technicians, and electricians design and deploy systems at speed. If you want to tackle the problem that will define this century and shape the future of American energy, now is the time. Join us.

About the Role

You will manage the physical heartbeat of Base HQ. You own building operations. You solve alarms, leaks, power outages, and lighting failures. You assemble and deploy furniture, equipment, and lab hardware to keep teams productive. You expand our workspace as we grow. You ensure the environment stays safe, compliant, and operational. You coordinate with property management and critical vendors to protect uptime and performance.

What You’ll Do

  • Own day to day building maintenance to include alarms, leaks, power outages, and lighting replacement

  • Build furniture, networking equipment, lab equipment and other new items

  • Manage desk moves and expansion into new areas of HQ

  • Implement mail scanning system to automate alerting and tracking of all packages at HQ

  • Grounds management and upkeep of outdoor areas and parking lots

  • Primary liaison with property management and building vendors such as HVAC, plumbing, lighting, and safety services

  • Security, first aid, compliance (do we have required smoke alarms, fire extinguishers, etc)

What You'll Bring

  • Direct experience running facilities in a fast-growing hardware environment.

  • Technical ability to assemble equipment and diagnose basic building and network issues.

  • Precise organization skills to coordinate multiple vendors, tasks, and space changes.

  • Clear communication with both internal teams and external property partners.

  • A compliance mindset to ensure safety requirements are always met.

  • Comfort taking ownership of problems and fixing them without delay.

Our Values

We’re building a winning culture and we’re looking for people who are up for the challenge. Here’s what we expect from day one:

  • In-Person Only: We work full-time in the office. No hybrid. No remote.

  • Challenge the Status Quo: Question assumptions. Fix broken systems. Principles > rules.

  • Move Fast: Focus on what matters, act quickly, and learn by doing.

  • Give & Get Feedback: Be direct, be humble. Challenge ideas–including your own.

  • Own the Outcome: Take full responsibility. Deliver results. No excuses.

  • Act Like an Owner: Be resourceful, mindful of impact, and committed to the business.

  • Be Decisive: Drive clarity. Make bold calls with imperfect info.

  • Bring the Intensity: This is not a 9-to-5. We're building something hard which requires real commitment.
