WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

Qualifications

• Required
• 3-5 years in learning and development or technical training, including experience leading a training function with people and budget responsibility
• Experience building technical training for safety-critical or regulated operations, such as heavy equipment, construction, industrial, transportation, or robotics
• A track record of designing and running certification or qualification programs that determine who is allowed to do the work
• Experience building train-the-trainer programs and managing external training partners or vendors
• Strong command of instructional design, adult learning principles, and assessing competency
• Hands-on learning management administration and reporting experience, with a data-driven approach to measuring results
• Ability to influence senior leaders and work across Operations, Safety, Engineering, and Product
• Willingness to travel 30%+ to job sites and training locations
• Background in construction, heavy civil, or heavy equipment operations, and knowledge of OSHA regulations
• Experience with autonomous systems, robotics, or advanced construction technology
• Experience building customer- or partner-facing training, including programs that generate revenue
• Experience building an L&D function at a hyper-growth startup
• Leadership development and coaching experience
• Familiarity with LMS systems and approaches
• Familiarity with simulation, video, or AR/VR training tools
• WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS
• Autonomy only changes construction if the people around the machines know how to use it safely and well. You'll decide how Bedrock trains its own teams and its partners, and you'll create the credential that defines a qualified autonomous equipment operator. Your work will directly shape how fast Bedrock can scale to new sites and how safely those sites run.
