Join the team bringing autonomy to the built world 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 them more predictably. 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 West, South, and Midwest. 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. ABOUT THE ROLE We are seeking an Operational Safety & EHS Lead to own the programs that keep Bedrock's people, our partners' crews, and the public safe wherever our machines work. Over the next twelve months, we will rapidly scale our machine count, partners, and sites while also adding net-new machine types and a next-generation platform — each new product line and machine brings new operational, retrofit and commissioning, and partner site considerations. This role will build and runs our inaugural EHS and Operational Safety programs, spanning human–autonomy interaction in the field, retrofit and maintenance work, test sites, and partner job sites. You'll own EHS compliance across a growing multi-state footprint and play a central role in incident management, investigation, and corrective action. The Operational Safety & EHS Lead reports to the VP of Operations and partners closely with Fleet and Field Operations, Autonomy and System Safety Engineering, Hardware, Commercial, and People teams to make operational safety a critical input to deployment decisions. WHAT YOU'LL DO Operational Safety for Autonomous Field Operations • Develop and run pre-deployment site safety assessments and go / no-go readiness gates with Fleet, Deployment Operations, and System Safety Engineering • Lead job hazard analyses (JHA / JSA) and operational risk assessments for testing, commissioning, retrofit, and new-site launches • Own management of change as new machine types, hardware, and autonomy capabilities are introduced • Review partner Site Safety Plans and prepare Site Safety Plans for Bedrock deployments • Translate field learnings and safety-relevant events into feedback and requirements for Engineering EHS Program & Regulatory Compliance • Build and maintain Bedrock's written EHS programs (e.g., IIPP, lockout / tagout, heavy equipment operation, fall protection, crane & rigging, high-voltage battery safety, hazard communication, heat illness, emergency action) • Ensure compliance with OSHA (29 CFR 1910 and 1926), Cal/OSHA, and state-plan requirements across 15+ states, including injury and illness recordkeeping and reporting • Own environmental compliance for field and facility operations, including fuel and fluids handling, spill prevention and response, and waste management • Monitor evolving regulations and industry practice for autonomous heavy equipment and advise leadership on implications Incident Management & Investigation • Own the incident, near-miss, and safety-observation reporting process, including triage, escalation, and communication to leadership and partners • Lead root cause analyses for significant events and drive corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) to verified closure • Partner with Autonomy Safety and Engineering to investigate autonomy-related events using machine data and logs, and trend events across the fleet • Stand up and run a recurring safety review forum covering key incidents, trends, and open risks Training, Culture & Partner Safety • Own the safety training matrix and onboarding for field technicians, operators, and remote supervisors • Support partner and general contractor safety requirements, including site-specific safety plans, prequalification (e.g., ISNetworld, Avetta), and site orientations • Build a visible, field-first safety culture: stop-work authority, routine site walks, and recognition of proactive reporting • Set safety expectations for contractors, vendors, and partners who work on or around Bedrock machines Safety Metrics, Audits & Reporting • Define and track leading and lagging safety metrics (e.g., TRIR, DART, near-miss and observation rates, corrective action closure) • Run a field and facility audit program and drive accountability for findings across Operations • Deliver regular safety reporting to the VP of Operations, the executive team, and the Board as needed • Select and implement stage-appropriate EHS tooling for reporting, inspections, training records, and incident tracking WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE • Safe deployments as the fleet scales to new states, sites, and machine types • A documented, field-tested safety management system that scales with the business • Clean, audit-ready OSHA and environmental compliance across every state we operate in • Incidents and near-misses reported early, investigated rigorously, and closed out with verified corrective actions • Field teams and partner crews who know the rules, feel empowered to stop work, and report proactively • Operational safety data that leadership uses to make deployment decisions WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR Required • 8+ years in EHS, operational safety, or safety program management, including 3+ years in heavy equipment, construction, heavy civil, mining, or indu
