Operations Program Manager Deployments

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.

We are seeking a Operations Program Manager to lead the planning and execution of autonomous system deployments across partner construction sites. This role owns cross-functional timelines drives launch readiness and ensures alignment across engineering operations safety product and partnership teams.

You will operate at the center of complex deployments ensuring teams are aligned from early planning through site activation and translating technical systems into executable plans. A key part of this role is defining how customers successfully operate our systems by building scalable digital operating manuals that bridge technical complexity and real-world use.

This role also plays a critical part in scaling deployments by building repeatable frameworks improving workflows (including AI-driven processes) and enabling consistent high-quality launches across sites and platforms.

Deployment Program Management

• Build and own cross-functional deployment timelines

• Serve as program owner for deployment launches

• Ensure launch readiness across engineering validation operational readiness and safety protocols

• Identify risks dependencies and critical path items; drive resolution

• Manage and track Fleet Technology engineering roadmap deliverables ensuring priorities and dependencies are aligned

• Lead deployment reporting in program reviews ensuring clear visibility into progress site metrics blockers and outcomes

• Build and evolve a repeatable deployment playbook

• Standardize processes and improve deployment framework using AI-driven workflows and tools

• Support priority deployment initiatives and special projects as needed to enable safe scalable deployment operations

Launch Approval

• Manage complex and first-of-kind deployments

• Provide additional coordination for high-complexity or early-stage programs

• Ensure alignment between internal plans and field execution

• Support onsite teams during critical launch phases as needed

Customer Operating System & Enablement

• Define how partners interact with and operate autonomous systems in real-world environments

• Translate complex robotic systems into clear practical and scalable operating instructions

• Develop partner training program and digital operating manual

• Continuously evolve operating manual based on field learnings edge cases and customer feedback

• Enable consistent onboarding training and independent operation across partner sites

• On-time predictable execution of deployment timelines

• High-quality launch readiness across engineering operations and safety

• Centralized deployment status and site metrics

• Clear effective digital operating manual enabling customer independence

• Repeatable deployment processes that improve with each launch

• Effective execution of complex and first-of-kind programs

• 5 years experience in both program management and operations or deployment roles

• Proven ability to lead cross-functional programs across engineering and operations

• Strong planning skills: timelines dependencies and risk management

• Ability to translate technical systems into structured plans and clear documentation

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills

• Comfortable in fast-paced ambiguous environments

• Willingness to travel as needed to support onsite launches

• Familiarity with AI-driven tools or workflow automation

• Experience supporting new product or platform launches

• Experience building scalable customer-facing documentation or training systems

This role is critical to scaling deployment operations. You will ensure teams are aligned launches are executed effectively and systems are in place to support repeatable high-quality deployments. Your work will directly enable the successful rollout and long-term adoption of autonomous technology in real-world environments.

Our roles are often flexible. If you dont fit all the criteria or are in another location (especially one where we have an office like SF or NY) please apply anyway! Wed love to consider you.
