About this role
Bedrock Robotics is a company focused on bringing advanced autonomy to the built world. They are seeking a Senior Robotics Application Engineer to bridge the gap between their R&D lab and construction sites, ensuring the performance of autonomous excavators through data-driven evaluations, real-time problem solving, and customer partnerships.
Responsibilities:
- Run evaluations on site data to predict autonomous performance and validate release readiness before the buckets start digging
- Debug complex issues across the entire stack—from hydraulic sensors and compute hardware to high-level behavior
- Collaborate closely with Partnerships to identify new customer sites that align with our product roadmap and provide technical feedback to our engineering team to influence the next generation of Bedrock systems
- Lead discussions on site progression, explain how the system integrates into our customers’ work, and how to maximize its performance on a job site
Requirements:
- B.S. or M.S. in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field
- 5+ years of professional experience in a technical role focused on keeping critical onboard and off-board systems operating smoothly
- Hands-on experience with deployed robotics is a massive plus
- Proficiency in Python, Rust, C++, etc, Linux
- Experience with version control and deploying code in 'live' environments
- Strong understanding of robotics stacks – sensor fusion (LiDAR, GNSS, IMU), computer vision, motion planning, controls, embedded systems
- Ability to troubleshoot electrical systems, CAN bus communication, and interact with industry debug tools
- Experience with data visualization and analytical tools to turn raw logs into performance metrics
- You are as comfortable in a hard hat and boots as you are in a terminal window
- You can make high-stakes technical decisions onsite to minimize downtime
- You can explain a Kalman Filter to a developer and a cycle-time improvement to a site foreman with equal clarity
- You love the 'field' and are ready to be where the work is
