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.

You will also work closely with our business-development folks, teaming up to decide which markets to target and helping guide our entry. This role requires policy expertise, strategic vision, and a commitment to transforming the energy sector.

About the Team
Policy is a small, high-ownership function inside Legal, Regulatory, and Policy (LRP). We exist to shape the rules of the road by working with state legislatures, utility commissions, local governments, and other agencies to build a regulatory environment where distributed energy resources can be fully utilized to increase energy reliability and affordability for everyday Americans. Our work sits at the intersection of policy, politics, and grid infrastructure, and the outcomes we drive help set the bounds of Base's success.
