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.
As a Construction and Architecture Intern, you’ll get hands-on experience bringing a factory to life - designing and standing up the processes that make our products real. You’ll work alongside engineers, operators, and builders in a fast-paced, highly collaborative environment, contributing to everything from facility layouts to construction progress tracking.
What you'd do
- Strong organizational skills and ability to manage details across multiple stakeholders.
- Interest in facility design, construction methods, and how they intersect with manufacturing operations.
- Ability to read or interpret construction drawings, layouts, and technical documentation.
- Eagerness to participate in fieldwork, site walks, and hands-on problem solving.
- Analytical mindset for tracking costs, quantities, and progress against plans.
- Clear communication skills for documenting action items and sharing findings with cross-functional teams.
- Proactive, “learn by doing” attitude with willingness to dive into new technical areas.
- 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.
