About The Position

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. About the Role We’re looking for a product-minded Frontend Engineer to help design and build the entire customer experience at Base Power. From exploring energy usage in real-time to managing outages and understanding bills, you’ll craft interfaces that make energy simple, transparent, and intuitive. You’ll join a small, high-impact team responsible for building the digital front door of Base. This role is ideal for someone who leads with the customer in mind, thrives on shipping polished user interfaces, and has taken complex features from idea to launch. You’ll influence product direction, guide architectural decisions, and shape a platform that connects real-world energy systems with the people who rely on them.

Requirements

• 6+ years experience in product / full-stack engineering.
• Deep expertise in TypeScript and modern SPA frameworks (React, Next.js, etc.).
• Track record of end-to-end ownership -- ideation, backend/API integration, UI implementation, and iteration post-launch.
• Familiar with product analytics, A/B testing, and using data to guide decisions.
• Technical excellence in software (you’ve gone deep on a hard problem).
• Ability to think from the customer perspective.
• Grit and first principles thinking.

Nice To Haves

Responsibilities

• Own the Experience : Lead development of customer-facing features across our web and mobile apps: onboarding, energy dashboards, billing, outage management, and more.
• Ship End-to-End : Take features from concept to launch -- helping to defining the data model, working with backend engineers, and sweating the UX details.
• Lead with Design Thinking : Champion usability and clarity; you’ll work closely with product and design to ensure Base feels fast, clear, and trustworthy.
• Shape How We Build : Evaluate technologies, define frontend architecture, and improve developer experience.
• Be a Product Partner – Participate in product strategy, helping translate abstract ideas into scoped, buildable solutions that make energy better for our customers.
