Base Power Company; Austin (TX); On-site; USD 120,000 - 180,000; Full time

Job summary

Base Power Company is building a next-gen finance data platform. You will own the data warehouse, pipelines, and a reporting cube that delivers trusted, self-service analytics for finance across ERP, asset registers, budgets, and forecasts.

You’ll collaborate with accounting to encode dimensional backbones and enable Excel, BI, and AI-driven reporting at scale. This role is in-person and critical to turning data into fast, reliable insights.

Qualifications

• 3–7 years in data engineering, analytics engineering, or BI development, including at least one financial reporting platform built and run in production.
• Expert SQL and dimensional modeling (facts, dimensions, hierarchies) and the pipeline fundamentals to move ERP data reliably.
• Working accounting fluency: talk chart of accounts, debits/credits, and close calendars with a controller, translate into a data model.
• An auditor's instinct for correctness: tie out to the GL, test logic, and treat unreconciled numbers as defects.
• Founding-hire ownership: scope v1, ship it, and grow the function as the company scales.
• Fluency working alongside AI: treat agents as first-class consumers of your data.
• Plain-English communication with finance stakeholders: prefer validated drilldowns over architecture diagrams.

Responsibilities

• Build and own the finance data warehouse with pipelines from ERP and asset registers, budgets, and forecasts.
• Build the GL reporting cube with dimensions, hierarchies, and pre-calculated measures for drill-downs.
• Ensure correctness with validated logic and reconciliation checks so reports are trustworthy.
• Collaborate with accounting on the dimensional backbone and encode it for all reports.
• Support consolidation and budget-vs-actuals with drill-down behind variances.
• Develop interfaces (Excel, BI, AI agents) for self-service finance analytics.
• Extend the platform as finance scales (forecast cube, asset reporting, tax equity reporting).
