Security Engineer

At Base we believe that the world needs reliable and abundant power to maximize human prosperity. Our team is on a mission to affect this future. We are tenacious engineers and operators who have solved hard problems and are here to do it again.

At Base, we are reinventing the infrastructure that powers the nation's electric grid—and we view security not as a layer, but as a foundation. As we scale our distributed fleet of energy storage devices and the software that orchestrates them, security is essential to maintaining trust, resilience, and operational integrity. We are looking for an experienced security expert to expand and lead our security efforts across both edge and cloud systems.

This role will be critical in safeguarding our edge device architecture, ensuring secure communications, hardening embedded Linux environments, and enforcing best-in-class security practices across our growing network. You'll help define and implement secure OTA update processes, manage identity and access control at scale, and respond proactively to evolving threats.

The ideal candidate has hands-on experience building and securing distributed systems—particularly in IoT, energy, or industrial environments—and is eager to shape the security posture of a fast-growing, mission-driven company from the ground up.
