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 $350M in funding, we're working quickly to close the gap between Americas surging demand for housing, data centers, manufacturing hubs, and the construction industrys 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 youre ready to apply cutting-edge technology to solve meaningful problems alongside a talented team-wed love to have you join us.
About the Role
We are seeking a Site Operations Manager to lead the deployment and operation of autonomous construction technology on partner construction sites. This role is responsible for ensuring successful site launches, safe operational performance, and strong partner relationships from early planning through project completion.
This role goes beyond traditional site operations-it includes the end-to-end customer operational experience, including hands-on customer training to operate autonomous systems and ongoing operations throughout the lifecycle of the project.
The Site Operations Manager acts as the operational point of contact for the partner site project management, while coordinating closely with engineering, partnership, and operations teams to deliver safe, efficient, and high-quality site operations.

Deployment & Site Operations
Contribute to early-stage site assessments and operational feasibility reviews.
Define work plans including scope and operational requirements.
Plan and execute deployments across multiple partner sites
Coordinate onsite launch readiness across engineering, fleet, and site teams
Lead onsite setup, workflow validation, and safety alignment
Own site launch and transition into steady-state operations
Oversee daily operations to ensure safe, reliable performance
Run regular operational check-ins with partners
Capture field insights to inform product, engineering and operational improvements
Manage project closeout, reporting, and post-deployment learnings
Customer Robot Operation Experience
Manage the customer lifecycle from launch through steady-state operations.
Lead structured training and support for new partners, ensuring alignment on workflows, expectations, safety and success criteria.
Translate complex robotic systems into clear, practical operating instructions.
Certify that partner site management and operators are fully trained and confident prior to and after launch.
Partner with internal stakeholders to incorporate field learnings into training materials and workflows.
Build strong, trust-based relationships with partner teams to drive long-term success and adoption.
What Success Looks Like
Safe, on-time deployment of autonomous operations
Customer teams independently operating robotic systems with confidence
