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 seeking an intern to join Base’s Business Operations team that focuses on commercial partnerships. During your internship you’ll be tasked with important problems for the business and expected to deliver just like any other full-time member of the team.

In this role, you’ll help launch new growth-oriented partnerships, support existing partner operations, and improve financial and operational processes across the business.

Comfort working with modern tools and tech stack (e.g., Python, SQL, dashboards, CRMs) and rolling up your sleeves when needed.
Analytical and data-driven mindset to decision-making and sound business judgment to determine project performance and financial viability.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Proficiency in Powerpoint/Slides and Excel.
Proficiency in one or more programming languages is a plus.
Bias toward action and simplification - constantly pushing toward alignment, clarity, and execution on tight timelines.
Comfortable with ambiguity and effective prioritization in a fast paced entrepreneurial environment.
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.
