Mechanical Design Engineer
Base Power Company, Austin, TX
The role
Base is hiring a Mechanical Design Engineer to design the enclosures, structures, and assemblies inside our home batteries and related hardware. You'll own parts from concept through production: CAD, analysis, prototypes, testing, and release to manufacturing at volume.
The team
Our hardware team designs, validates, and ships the batteries, inverters, and grid interconnect devices inside every Base home. We keep the hard parts in-house, from power electronics and firmware integration to mechanical and thermal design, and take each product from first prototype to high-volume production. Homeowners across the country rely on Base for whole-home backup and lower electricity bills. Our network of home batteries also helps keep the grid stable as demand climbs from AI, electrification, and extreme weather. We build in-house and expand at a speed and cost incumbents can't match, and this team makes that possible.
