Material Planning 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
Base designs its own hardware, builds it in its own factory, installs it at homes, and sells the power. That vertical integration is our advantage, and it means a single missing part can stop production.
As a Material Planning Intern, you will own and plan material for a set of assigned parts, translate the production schedule into supply signals our suppliers can act on, and find shortages weeks before they reach the factory floor and coordinate with the manufacturing team.
This is not a shadowing internship. You will be given parts to own, suppliers to talk to, and a production schedule that depends on you. The work sits between Manufacturing, Engineering, Procurement, Quality, and Logistics, and suits someone who thinks in systems, is comfortable acting on incomplete information, and likes building durable, robust processes.
