Recruiter (Frontline)

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 Frontline Recruiter at Base, you’ll own hiring for the people who power our operations every day: electricians, warehouse associates, drivers, and field employees across our facilities. These hires are the backbone of Base, ensuring our technology and products are delivered, installed, and supported at the highest level. We’re not looking for recruiting experts – just motivated individuals with strong operational experience, attention to detail, and great communication skills.

This is an opportunity to help scale a mission-critical workforce from the ground up. This is an in-person role based in Austin, TX.
