# Software Engineer, Distributed Compute

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 building the software that coordinates distributed computing across thousands of physical devices deployed in homes and grid infrastructure. We're looking for a Software Engineer to design, build, and maintain the software systems that run on connected devices - collecting telemetry, executing compute tasks, and communicating state back to central infrastructure - while ensuring reliability, security, and performance at the edge. This is not a firmware role. You'll be writing application-level software in systems languages (Go, Rust, C) that runs on deployed hardware. You'll own the full lifecycle: from understanding hardware constraints and network conditions in the field, to designing resilient communication protocols, to shipping updates to thousands of devices safely.
