Business Operations, MBA Intern

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

The business operations team at Base is a lean group of generalists who take high-stakes, not-very-defined problems, give them structure, and drive them to completion. As our MBA intern, you'll get a real piece of that work for the summer, not a side project. You'll pick up a defined slice of whatever the team is running right now (today that's the integration of a recent acquisition; it could also be a commercial partnership or a market entry) and drive it to a decision.

What You'll Do

Cover one part of the business for the summer: know its plan, its unit costs, and its tradeoffs better than anyone outside the team. Own a discrete project inside it end to end — the forecast it runs on, a market or product entry, a workstream in an acquisition integration, or the scoreboard it's missing — and leave behind something that still runs without you. Structure the problem yourself; define the goal, name the owners, write the memo that forces the tradeoff. Build the analysis yourself — the model, the scoreboard, the one-pager — and defend the assumptions to the people who have to hit them. Get into the data yourself; our warehouse, our install and market data, our AI tooling, rather than waiting on someone to pull it for you. Work across functions without formal authority; rally owners in engineering, market operations, manufacturing, accounting, and customer operations. Spend time where the money actually gets spent: ride along on an install, sit with market operations, walk the manufacturing floor.
