was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of enabling human life on Mars.
Starbase is standing up on-site power generation for the Starbase AI supercomputer. This millwright role installs that plant: trailer- and skid-mounted aeroderivative gas turbines, generators, and the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) stacks beside them. You set the machines, laser-align the couplings, grout them, preserve them until they run, and install the emissions equipment as foundations come out of the ground.
