About Bedrock
Our mission is to accelerate the exploration of Earth’s final frontier—the ocean—by pioneering autonomous technologies and unlocking transparent, actionable intelligence.
We believe that understanding the ocean is essential to thriving on this planet and beyond. The ocean is not just a vast body of water—it is the foundation of our climate, our resources, our communications, and our energy. As critical infrastructure increasingly moves beneath the waves, our ability to explore, map, and safeguard the ocean’s bedrock becomes vital.
We’re not just connecting the world by sea—we’re revealing the deep, unseen structure that connects all life. To secure our future, we must first understand the ground beneath us, the foundation of our civilization.
The Role
Bedrock is growing—and we’re looking for a DevInfra engineer to bring Continuous Deployment to our Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) fleet.
CI/CD may be standard for websites, but at Bedrock we’re not deploying to data centers. We’re deploying to a heterogeneous, globally distributed robot fleet, where nodes are often offline, feature verification can require sea trials, and a bad release can strand a vehicle. Given these challenges, even weekly releases are aspirational.
We believe we can change that. We need someone who has built or scaled CI/CD in high-stakes environments, and who can drive both tooling and cultural change. Help us ship more features to the ocean, faster and safer—turning release day into a non-event.
What You’ll Do
Own and evolve our GitLab CI/CD pipelines and automated test infrastructure to keep developer velocity high as we scale.
Build a pull-based deployment solution resilient to spotty connectivity and diverse hardware, so we can rapidly and reliability deploy to robots anywhere in the world
Partner with hardware/software teams on simulation and hardware-in-the-loop testing to reduce reliance on field trials.
Integrate feature tracking with asset management systems so we know exactly when a feature is ready for fleet-wide release.
Strengthen observability and link it to releases for fast regression detection.
Champion best practices and emerging technologies to boost productivity, velocity, and reliability.
About You
Required Experience:
5+ years in DevOps / DevInfra, ideally in distributed systems.
Strong Linux and containerization (Docker).
Solid networking debugging skills.
Hands-on experience with CI/CD (GitLab, Jenkins, etc.).
Familiarity with build/test frameworks (CMake, pytest, etc.).
Infra-as-code (Ansible, Terraform, etc.).
Observability/monitoring (Grafana stack a plus).
Strategic - Ability to break big challenges into actionable steps.
Innovative - Curiosity and drive to evaluate and adopt new tools.
Bonus Experience:
Deploying to embedded systems (e.g., PlatformIO).
Managing fleets with intermittent connectivity (IoT, robotics).
Robotics simulation (Gazebo, Drake, etc.).
ML infra or pipelines.
About the Robotics Software Team
We’re collaborative and fast-moving: design reviews, code reviews, and regular retros ensure we’re following best practices and scaling sustainably. From week one you’ll have code running on a testbed, within weeks you’ll push code to an AUV in the field, and within months you’ll own a roadmap project. We empower each other with autonomy, respect, and accountability—so everyone’s perspective drives the mission forward.
Explore the last true frontier left on Earth with us
We are seeking mission oriented, purpose driven teammates who are willing to push boundaries to learn and execute when things seem impossible. The ocean is the ultimate level playing field, anyone can go, but not many can build successful systems that can survive and thrive in earth’s last frontier. We get to illuminate the darkness, explore the unknown, and be first to see what we can discover. We can see everything on earth, except in the depths of the sea.
