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 RoleAs a Full-Stack Cloud Software Engineer at Bedrock, you’ll build the tools that connect our autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to the people who operate them and the customers who depend on their data. You’ll work on Trident, our real-time command interface, and Mosaic, our ocean data platform — designing features, shipping code, and refining workflows based on close collaboration with designers, engineers, and end users. Expect to work on real-time systems, map-based visualizations, cloud infrastructure, and data-rich user interfaces — all in service of accelerating our understanding of the ocean
What You'll DoWrite clean, maintainable, and well-tested code that stands up in production
Build and maintain the core systems that power Bedrock’s platform, working closely with a tight-knit team of engineers and designers
Engage directly with operators and customers to understand needs and shape product direction
Take ownership of high-impact components, driving them from design through deployment and iteration
Strengthen team practices through architecture discussions, technical decision-making, and mentorship
Experience & Expertise
Building, scaling, and maintaining complex web applications in production environments
Developing applications across both backend and frontend systems
On the backend: experience writing services in Python and TypeScript using modern frameworks like FastAPI and Elysia
On the frontend: experience building applications with TypeScript and React
Collaborating with end users, designers, and engineers to create thoughtful, user-focused software
Handling high-frequency event streams using real-time publish/subscribe systems such as WebSockets or ROS topics
Bonus Experience
Working with the Robot Operating System (ROS)
Developing map-based applications using tools like MapboxGL, DeckGL, or PostGIS
Understanding geospatial data storage, analysis, and visualization
Thriving in fast-paced, early-stage startup environments
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.
