About the job
About 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
As an Embedded Software Engineer at Base, you will lead the architecture and technical direction of the firmware that powers our battery systems.
Our devices monitor hardware, control power electronics, communicate with cloud services, and respond to real-time grid conditions. The embedded platform you help define must operate safely and reliably across thousands of systems deployed in homes.
You will work closely with hardware, electrical, and software teams to shape how these systems are designed, built, and operated at fleet scale. This role requires deep technical judgment, strong systems thinking, and the ability to guide complex engineering decisions that affect the entire platform.
