    Job DescriptionJob DescriptionAbout 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

    Base is looking for electricians to train and be a part of field service crews in Northern Illinois.

    This is a pioneering position in Base Power’s expansion beyond Texas, marking our first entry into Illinois. As an electrician in this region, you’ll play a foundational role in shaping our field operations, training new crews, and setting the standard for excellence in service delivery. The ideal candidate brings a builder’s mindset—someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, embraces our mission to create energy abundance, and knows how to turn vision into reality through disciplined execution and strong leadership. This role is not just about technical expertise; it’s about laying the groundwork for long-term success in a new market.

    What You’ll Do

    Managing the installation of home backup batteries

    Troubleshooting and diagnosing field failures

    Inspection failure repairs

    Onboarding and facilitating training of new installer crews and/or subcontractors

    Meeting with inspectors and AHJs (Authority Having Jurisdictions) for inspections and other initiatives

    Become a subject matter expert in Base hardware, general electrical principles, and applicable NEC Codes

    Respond to on-call duties for emergent electrical issues during nights and weekends on a scheduled, rotational basis

    What You'll Bring

    Active Electrician license via a written examination in Northern Illinois

    Experience with installation or maintenance battery back up systems, EV chargers, PV systems, or whole home generators preferred

    Availability to onboard, train, and observe battery system installation near Base’s manufacturing & operations HQ in Austin, Texas. We anticipate this in person onboarding to take around 30 days

    About this Team
    The Field Operations team serves as the tactical engine of Base’s mission, solving the "last mile" challenge of grid modernization by physically integrating distributed storage systems into aging infrastructure. As the leader of our inaugural Northern Illinois unit, you will not only execute installations but will define the operational playbook for a critical new market, bridging the gap between cutting-edge hardware and rigorous electrical codes. This work goes beyond standard electrical service; you are establishing the safety and quality benchmarks that will allow us to scale a decentralized power network across the Midwest. We are looking for an electrician who is ready to transition from maintaining the status quo to architecting the workforce that secures the future of American energy.

    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.
