Bedrock Ocean Exploration

Bedrock Ocean Exploration is a vertically-integrated geophysical surveying and seafloor data company focused on reimagining the seafloor data collection experience. They design, build, and operate Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) optimized for nearshore geophysical surveys to provide high-resolution seafloor data needed for critical decision-making. Bedrock's mission is to provide the world with a free, publicly available map of our world's oceans, 50x more detailed than the current best public map available. They believe that understanding our oceans is essential to sustaining life on Earth and that this goal requires a data-first approach to subsea surveying, reducing costs, increasing safety, and reducing risk.

Bedrock offers a range of services, including hydrographic surveys, geophysical surveys, UXO surveys, and site reconnaissance. Their AUV fleet platform is designed to be faster to mobilize, transportable by air, 100% electric and green, minimized risk of environmental damage, and have survey operations with minimal weather impact. Bedrock is committed to sharing data with the public and has built a cloud data platform called Mosaic™ to simplify data management and maximize the value of their seafloor data. They have partnerships with industry leaders such as Lautec, the Nippon-Foundation-GEBCO Seabed 2030 Project, Scripps Institute of Oceanography, and NORBIT Subsea, among others.

Bedrock Ocean Exploration is a remote-first company, with their employees working primarily from home or at locations of their choosing. The company embraces a flexible work schedule to enable employees to achieve a healthy work-life balance, and they provide the necessary tools and resources to facilitate remote collaboration and communication. This empowers employees to manage their time effectively and prioritize their well-being.
