Capital Markets

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 are looking for someone to support the build-out of our capital markets machine that funds our growth. The finance team at Base is very lean, and this role will be tasked with supporting our capital planning and related transactions across debt, equity, and tax credits.

Base’s business model is capital intensive, and increasingly so over time given our hyper-growth. Cracking the capital markets will be one of the core enablers of our success and long-term differentiation. This is an intellectually challenging and stimulating role at the heart of creative financing for a new, category defining asset class.

What You’ll Do

• Support fundraising efforts with scenario modeling that assess the impact of new capital structures, including as Base scales and deepens its reliance on project finance and tax equity.

• Partner with engineering and manufacturing teams to most effectively finance our factory and hardware design build-out.

• Maintain Base’s brand in capital markets while interfacing with external parties.

What You'll Bring

• 2+ years of experience in investing, investment banking, and/or a capital markets role at an operating company.

• Comfort engaging with engineering-led systems (e.g., SQL databases) to extract financial and operational performance.

• Experience with modeling capital intensive businesses or project finance/tax equity structures.

• Experience in manufacturing, energy, power, renewables, infrastructure.

• Effective verbal and written communication skills.

Base is a company for people who want to win and who want their work to matter. We think from first principles, move with urgency, and treat the mission like our own.

We talk about what isn’t working before we talk about what is because every problem is an opportunity to fix something, improve the system, and compound progress. We cut through complexity, stay close to the work, and let results speak for themselves.

• 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.
