Full Job Description

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

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. You'll play an important role in helping establish the foundation for our Illinois operations while developing the skills needed to advance your electrical career.

What You'll Do

Hands-On Field Support: Assist electricians with installations, repairs, troubleshooting, and general electrical tasks
Installation Assistance: Help with pulling wire, mounting equipment, installing battery systems, and preparing job sites
Quality & Compliance Support: Follow instructions to help ensure installs meet inspection requirements and internal quality standards
On-Site Learning: Work alongside experienced electricians to build practical skills and real-world electrical knowledge
Tool & Material Management: Organize tools, stage materials, and help keep job sites clean, safe, and efficient
Emergent Support: Participate in occasional after-hours or weekend work as needed to support urgent field needs.

What You'll Bring

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

About the Team

The Field Operations team serves as the tactical engine of Base's mission, bringing distributed energy storage directly into customers' homes. As part of our inaugural Northern Illinois team, you'll help establish the operational foundation for a brand-new market while learning from experienced electricians and working with cutting-edge energy technology. We value people who show up ready to learn, take pride in their work, and want to build something meaningful.

Please note: Base is a startup, which means priorities shift and evolve quickly. Your role may expand or change based on the needs of the business at any given time, so the responsibilities listed may not be exhaustive.

Our Values

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.
Fun & Optimism Coexist with Grit: Collaboration and celebration coincide with the intensity of building real things.

Do the best work of your life at Base.

Compensation Range: $23 - $25
