Job description

Company

The earth beneath our feet holds extraordinary, untapped capacity to accelerate the clean energy transition. Bedrock Energy is on a mission to transform the heating and cooling of buildings, using carbon-free, hyper-efficient, and ultra-safe geothermal energy to radically reduce costs for people and the environment. Incorporated in 2022, Bedrock has raised $22M in Seed and Series A capital and is gathering exceptional talent to scale geothermal energy to decarbonize buildings everywhere. We’re seeking creative, collaborative, proactive team members who inspire us with their high standards of excellence, integrity, and commitment to our shared mission.

Role

As the first Reliability Engineer at Bedrock, you will be accountable for maximizing equipment availability, safety, and learning velocity across Bedrock’s coiled tubing drilling spreads operating across U.S. states. This role owns the system-level reliability of the coiled tubing unit, pumping system, mud/solids control unit, and auxiliary equipment, translating field failures into engineering improvements, maintenance strategies, and operational limits.

This role bridges field operations, engineering, and vendors, converting field experiences and data into systematic improvements through structured reliability processes (RCAs, FRACAS, condition monitoring, and preventive maintenance optimization), ensuring failures are understood, not repeated, and fed into measurable reliability improvements. By creating reliability engineering practices in which Bedrock’s technology and geothermal installations can shine, you will strengthen Bedrock’s reputation for quality, safety, and integrity, and the early foundation of our entire company’s culture and standards of excellence.
