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

Predicting what happens next on a construction site is one of the hardest and most valuable problems at Bedrock whether thats soil dynamics machine interactions or the people moving around the site. Every scoop of dirt we move rewrites the scene we have to plan against. The Behavior ML team is building world models that let our machines reason about the near future instead of just reacting to the present. As our intern youll train models on real fleet data run architecture explorations and work closely with the Behavior and Controls teams to ship what you build onto a real excavator.

What Youll Do
  • Train and evaluate world models on real fleet data collected from autonomous machines in the field

  • Run architecture explorations and ablations and make a defensible case for whats actually working

  • Build evaluation harnesses and metrics that tell us whether a model is genuinely better

  • Partner with the behavior and controls teams to connect model outputs to planning and control

  • Present your findings and provide a solid foundation for the team to build upon

What Were Looking For
Required
  • Currently pursuing a BS MS or PhD in computer science machine learning robotics or a related field or bringing equivalent research or industry experience

  • Strong Python and hands-on experience training models in PyTorch (or equivalent)

  • Ability to read a paper and turn it into a working implementation

  • Comfort with messy real-world data this is not a curated benchmark

  • Sound experimental judgment understanding the difference between a real result and noise

Preferred
  • Experience with world models video prediction or sequence modeling (e.g. DreamerV3 V-JEPA 2 Genie 3 GAIA-2 NVIDIA Cosmos etc.)

  • Background in reinforcement learning or imitation learning

  • Prior work with robotics or autonomous vehicle data

  • Familiarity with large-scale training infrastructure
