About the role
Base, a next-generation power company, is seeking a Power Trader in Austin to build short-term strategies for ERCOT and later PJM. You will contribute to Trading & Risk by shaping exposure across generation and load and help drive long-term price views with a rigorous, portfolio-focused approach.
You will trade short-term power products, refine hedge strategies, and articulate market views to leadership. Collaboration in a fast-paced, in-person team is essential.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
