Where: Austin, TX
Posted: Sep 14

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’re looking for a Financial Planning Intern to work closely with our finance team on budgeting, forecasting, reporting, and financial analysis. You’ll help bring together financial and operational information to better understand how the business is performing and where it is headed.

This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys working with numbers, asking questions, and turning data into clear insights.

Currently pursuing a degree in finance, accounting, economics, business, computer science, data science, or a related field.
Strong analytical and quantitative skills.
Comfort working with spreadsheets and large amounts of data.
Curiosity and an interest in understanding how businesses work.
Strong attention to detail and a desire to get the numbers right.
Ability to communicate clearly and turn analysis into practical takeaways.
Willingness to learn new tools, systems, and concepts.
Experience with financial modeling, SQL, BI tools, orchestrating AI agents, or similar tooling is a plus, but not required.
