Deployment Operations Engineer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The earth beneath our feet holds extraordinary, untapped capacity to accelerate the clean energy transition, with limitless geo-energy available under every real estate asset.

• Design an organization that can scale while executing professional, air‑tight construction operations across multiple sites.
• Design, test, and roll out robust processes for operationally efficient communication and collaboration across a diverse and geographically dispersed team.
• Own the team recruiting, training, onboarding engine that supports fleet expansion while maintaining a high bar for quality.
• Set and protect the execution quality bar. Build a culture of first‑principles thinking, pushing the team to challenge inherited assumptions and practices.
• Own team adherence with safety programs, regulatory compliance, engineering guidance, and company policies.
• Lead the Operations Engineering team in drilling program design, project planning, issue resolution, and technical oversight of execution. Translate learnings into systematic playbooks and/or feedback for technology development.
• Lead the Reliability Engineering team in fleet asset ownership: reliability‑centred maintenance, failure analysis, spares strategy, capital planning.
• Partner with the technology development team to test and deploy new digital, telemetry, and automation technologies. Provide field feedback and thought partnership while maintaining a highly collaborative spirit.
• Oversee project P&Ls for high‑quality, cost‑effective drilling projects. Drive the operating rhythm for effective operational planning and execution.
• Own drilling crew performance, including compliance with HSE policies, engineering guidance, and standards of professionalism.
• Commit relentlessly to world‑class safety culture and HSE incident prevention.
• Oversee Deployment Operations to secure permitting & licenses, manage procurement & logistics, and fulfill regulatory & customer reporting. Build the systems that make these processes scalable.
• Own project delivery feasibility assessment across technical and operational factors as input to Commercial project selection and bidding processes.
• Execute field delivery within the technical architecture, safety guidance, and readiness standards set by the Chief Innovation Officer (CInO), escalating complex domain challenges and flagging execution trade‑offs as they surface.
• Partner with Product, Strategy, and Finance to identify and execute initiatives for continuous project margin improvement.
• Collaborate with company leadership and other functional owners to understand, prioritize, and invest in new operational capabilities as Bedrock grows.
• Provide input to the CInO on where technical/operational boundaries should evolve as the automation program and field organization scale, flagging friction points for review.

• Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering or other relevant technical discipline; graduate degree in management‑related fields is a plus.
• 10+ years of demonstrated experience leading a high‑performance team in drilling, subsurface construction, or related field operations (e.g., oil & gas, water well, mining, geotechnical).
• Track record of zero‑to‑one operational builds, standing up playbooks, systems, and organizations with little prior scaffolding (e.g., for a new product, new market entry).
• Enough relevant technical depth to credibly lead Operations Engineering and Reliability Engineering team, while leveraging the deep technical expertise of the CInO for highly complex domain challenges.
• Roll‑up‑your‑sleeves attitude suitable for a start‑up environment with willingness to engage across high‑level strategic ownership and operational details.
• Strong project management and problem‑solving skills, especially in changing environments with contending priorities and complex stakeholders.
• Outstanding communication skills, particularly articulating industry jargon and technical topics to cross‑functional laypersons.
• Ability to create a positive work environment for diverse team members.
• Passion for the energy transition.
