What are the responsibilities and job description for the Applications – Staff Software Engineer position at Bedrock Robotics?
Join the team bringing advanced autonomy to the built world
At Bedrock, we’re moving AI out of the lab and into the real world. Our team is composed of industry veterans who helped launch Waymo, scaled Segment to a $3.2B acquisition, and grew Uber Freight to $5B in revenue. Today, we’re deploying autonomous systems on heavy construction machinery across the country, accelerating project schedules of billion-dollar infrastructure projects and improving safety on job sites. Backed by $80M in funding, we’re working quickly to close the gap between America's surging demand for housing, data centers, manufacturing hubs, and the construction industry's growing labor shortage.
This is where algorithms meet steel-toed boots. You’ll collaborate with construction veterans and world-class engineers to solve physical-world problems that simulations can’t touch. If you're ready to apply cutting-edge technology to solve meaningful problems alongside a talented team—we'd love to have you join us.
The Role
Take on a lead role in designing and building the core services and applications that will power the next generation of autonomous construction equipment. From fleet management to autonomous task orchestration and machine coordination- you’ll work with a world class engineering team to build and design the core infrastructure that powers our machine interfaces, workflows, and services.
Also, you get to drive 100,000 lb excavators.

What You'll Do
- Design, build, and iterate on 0-to-1 services and infrastructure to support autonomous operations and distributed fleet management
- Develop user-facing products for machine operators to visualize and monitor robotics systems
- Partner closely with a full stack team (from Frontend, to ML, to Roboticists) to design technical solutions efficiently, be comfortable with rapid prototyping and experimentation
- Build tooling and applications to streamline processes such as autonomous testing, model deployments, and in-the-field fleet management
- Establish our core application frameworks, patterns, and infrastructure
- 6 years of professional experience owning the design, architecture and implementation of backends to highly complex, business critical applications
- Expertise in writing production-level code in Rust, Python, Go and working with databases such as PostgresSQL
- Small startup experience: rapid prototyping and building from the ground up
- Capability to design and implement application architectures from first principles
- Experience building with complex geospatial tooling (e.g. GIS, robotics, construction tech, command & control interfaces)
- Experience dealing with applications in low-bandwidth environments (intermittent LTE, 4G)
- Experience working with IOT, embedded systems, and robots
