At Bedrock, we're moving AI out of the lab and onto real job sites. Our team includes veterans who helped launch Waymo, scaled Segment to a $3.2B acquisition, and grew Uber Freight to $5B in revenue. We retrofit the heavy equipment contractors already own, starting with excavators, so experienced crews can safely take on more projects and deliver more of the critical infrastructure our society needs.
In August 2026, Bedrock-equipped excavators began doing fully autonomous, paid work on live commercial job sites. We've more than doubled our customer base since 2025, and our machines now work with contractors across the South, Midwest, and Mid-Atlantic
In October 2026, we raised a $600M Series C co-led by CapitalG and Emergence Capital, bringing our total funding to nearly $1B. We're using it to put more autonomous machines to work, build the field and operations teams behind every deployment, and expand into new machine types and job-site tasks.
This is where algorithms meet steel-toed boots. You'll work alongside construction veterans and world-class engineers to solve physical-world problems that simulations can't touch. If you're ready to do meaningful work on hard problems, we'd love to have you join us.
As the AI/ML Recruiter at Bedrock Robotics, you'll lead end-to-end recruiting for our most critical technical and leadership roles as we bring advanced autonomy to the $13 trillion construction industry. You'll partner directly with engineering leadership and our founding team to identify and close world-class talent in AI/ML and robotics, and help shape how we hire as we scale autonomous construction equipment across the U.S.
You’ll hunt and close the AI/ML researchers, perception engineers, and autonomy scientists that top AI labs are fighting over, through real relationships in academic labs, conference circuits (NeurIPS, CVPR, ICLR, ICRA), and the spinout ecosystem, not LinkedIn searches. You'll need enough technical fluency to hold your own with a computer vision PhD, spot breakout talent before it's obvious, and earn respect.
And you'll need to close like it matters: know which candidates are at risk, why offers stall, and when to step in, whether that's pulling in leadership, resetting the comp story, or creating urgency. Losing a top-1% hire to OpenAI or Anthropic over process lag isn't an option.
