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.
Base is looking for Apprentice Electricians to join our field installation crews in Northern Illinois.
This is a unique opportunity to help launch Base Power's first operations outside of Texas. As an Apprentice Electrician, you'll work alongside experienced electricians installing home backup battery systems while learning the trade through hands-on field experience.
What you'd do
- Credentials: Enrolled in or eligible for an electrical apprenticeship program in Illinois preferred
- Experience: 0–2+ years of construction, electrical, or hands-on trade experience is a plus, but not required
- Mindset: Strong work ethic, willingness to learn, and a "do it right" attitude
- Communication: Ability to follow directions, ask good questions, and work well with a team
- 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.
