Job Summary

Join the team bringing advanced autonomy to the built world

At Bedrock were moving AI out of the lab and into the real world. Our team includes veterans who helped launch Waymo scaled Segment to a $3.2B acquisition and grew Uber Freight to $5B in revenue. Today were deploying autonomous systems on heavy construction equipment across the country improving safety on job sites and accelerating schedules on critical infrastructure projects.

Were not here debating the future of AI. Were deploying it in the real just two years weve raised $350M and achieved the first fully autonomous excavator deployments in construction.

This is where algorithms meet steel-toed boots. Youll work alongside construction veterans and world-class engineers to solve physical-world problems that simulations cant touch. If youre ready to do meaningful work on hard problems wed love to have you join us.

About the Role & Team

Getting an autonomy stack onto a 40-ton excavator is a hardware problem long before its a software one brackets harnesses enclosures and interfaces that survive vibration dust and weather. As our Machine Integration intern youll design and build the physical interfaces between our system and the machine plus the test stands we use to prove them out before they ever hit a jobsite.

What Youll Do
  • Integrate sensors compute and wiring onto machines alongside the hardware team

  • Design brackets enclosures and interface hardware in CAD then help fabricate and install them

  • Build test stands for validating subsystems on the bench instead of in the field

  • Run lab tests capture data and iterate on designs based on what breaks

  • Document build and install procedures so the next machine goes faster than the last

  • Close the loop with the field team on whats working and what isnt

What Were Looking For
Required
  • Currently pursuing a BS or MS in mechanical engineering electrical engineering robotics or a related field or bringing equivalent hands-on experience

  • CAD proficiency (SolidWorks Onshape or similar)

  • Genuine hands-on shop skills youve built physical things not just modeled them

  • Basic electrical competence: harnessing connectors multimeter reading a schematic

  • Willingness to work on and around heavy equipment in PPE

Preferred
  • Wiring harness design or manufacturing experience

  • Exposure to off-highway automotive or industrial equipment

  • Machining welding or 3D printing experience
