    • Underground ground support systems
    • Stope dimensions, ore dilution estimates, and Equivalent Linear Overbreak Slough (ELOS)
    • Pit slopes and bench configurations
    • Waste rock dumps
    • Tailings storage facilities
  • Monitor ground conditions using geotechnical instrumentation including prisms, piezometers, extensometers, MPBX systems, and radar.
  • Interpret monitoring data and identify geotechnical hazards including slope failures, rockfalls, subsidence, and seismic risks.
  • Develop mitigation strategies and provide day-to-day geotechnical guidance to mine operations.
  • Participate in mine planning, scheduling, and drill-and-blast optimization.
  • Prepare technical reports, engineering documentation, and risk assessments.
  • Support permitting activities and regulatory compliance.
  • Coordinate with geology, mine engineering, survey, environmental teams, contractors, and consultants.
  • Mentor junior engineers and present technical findings to management.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Mining Engineering, Geological Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Master's degree in Geotechnical Engineering or Rock Mechanics preferred.
  • 5–8+ years of geotechnical engineering experience in the mining industry.
  • Strong understanding of rock mechanics, soil mechanics, and ground support design.
  • Experience performing slope stability analysis and geotechnical risk assessments.
  • Proficiency with geotechnical and mine design software, including:
    • FLAC3D
    • Rocscience Suite (Unwedge, Dips)
    • GeoStudio
    • Surpac
    • Vulcan
    • AutoCAD
    • GIS platforms
  • Experience with advanced numerical modeling is preferred; training and mentoring are available for qualified candidates.

Why Apply?

  • Join a respected Nevada mining operation during an exciting phase of technical evaluation and future mine planning.
  • Work alongside experienced engineering and technical professionals.
  • Contribute to meaningful projects that influence mine design, safety, and long-term operational success.
