About the role

Internship focusing on sensor selection, placement analysis, and validation for new machine platforms in Bedrock Robotics' autonomous construction equipment fleet.

Responsibilities

  • Work at the intersection between sensor physics, autonomy systems architecture, mechanical integration and design.
  • Analyze sensor coverage, occlusion, and blind spots for candidate sensor suites on new machine types
  • Build or extend tooling that models field of view, range, and coverage geometry
  • Run trade studies weighing performance against cost, durability, and mounting constraints
  • Prototype mounting concepts and validate coverage assumptions on actual machines
  • Turn your analysis into sensor requirements and specs the hardware team can build to
  • Work across perception, hardware, and safety to make sure the suite serves everyone downstream

Qualifications

  • Currently pursuing a BS, MS, or PhD in an engineering or engineering-adjacent discipline such as mechanical, electrical, physics, mechatronics, robotics, or computer science (or bringing equivalent hands-on experience)
  • Solid grasp of 3D geometry, coordinate frames, and transforms
  • Python for analysis and tooling
  • CAD fluency - enough to reason about where hardware physically goes
  • Willingness to go to mock construction sites and test sensor configurations
