What is a remote metallurgist?

A remote metallurgist is a professional who specializes in the study and application of metals and their properties, but works from a location outside of a traditional laboratory or industrial setting, often from home or a remote office. They may analyze metal samples, interpret data, provide technical support, and collaborate with engineering teams virtually. Advances in technology allow remote metallurgists to use digital tools for data analysis, simulation, and even remote monitoring of production processes. This role is common in industries like mining, manufacturing, and engineering, where expertise is needed across multiple sites or projects.

What are some common challenges faced when working remotely as a metallurgist, and how can they be addressed?

Remote metallurgists often face challenges such as limited access to physical lab equipment and samples, which can make hands-on testing and analysis difficult. Effective communication with on-site teams is crucial to ensure accurate data collection and interpretation. Many remote metallurgists rely on digital tools for data analysis, simulations, and virtual collaboration, so being comfortable with these platforms is essential. To address these challenges, maintaining regular communication, establishing clear protocols for sample handling, and leveraging remote-access technologies can help ensure productivity and high-quality results.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Metallurgist, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Metallurgist, you need a solid background in materials science, metallurgy, and engineering principles, usually supported by a relevant degree. Experience with metallurgical analysis tools, laboratory information management systems (LIMS), and remote data monitoring software is commonly required. Strong problem-solving, attention to detail, and effective communication skills are crucial for interpreting results and collaborating with off-site teams. These skills ensure accurate remote analysis, informed decision-making, and seamless project execution in geographically dispersed environments.

Job description

Senior Critical Minerals Expert (On-Call, Part-Time/Hourly/Remote)

Are you a critical minerals and materials expert with a deep understanding of the end-to-end supply chain-from mining and mineral processing to manufacturing, recycling, and commercialization? We need you.

ICF is seeking an on-call Critical Minerals Expert to support work with the ICF's federal, state, local, and private sector clients. This is a remote, on-call role that provides flexibility to work from zero to 30+ hours per week, depending on project needs.

In this role, you will help advance priorities aligned with U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Critical Minerals and Energy Innovation (CMEI) direction-including efforts to accelerate mining activities, diversify critical mineral and metals supply chains, stimulate innovation in processing and metallurgy, expand battery and magnet research, and facilitate recycling (including black mass and other battery materials).


You may also support collaboration and engagement activities aligned with DOE's broader innovation ecosystem for critical materials-focused on coordination, commercialization, workforce development, and industry adoption of new technologies.

What you will be doing:

  • Providing subject matter expertise across the critical minerals and materials value chain (upstream mining to downstream manufacturing and circularity), with emphasis on U.S. supply chain resilience and energy innovation priorities.

  • Supporting DOE CMEI technical and programmatic efforts related to:

    • Mining and mineral production acceleration and modernization

    • Processing, separation, refining, and metallurgy innovation

    • Battery, magnet, and advanced materials supply chains

    • Recycling and circular economy approaches, including battery materials

  • Producing or reviewing high-quality client deliverables such as: market and supply chain assessments, technical memos, landscape scans, program design inputs, stakeholder summaries, and briefings-reflective of ICF and client standards.

  • Helping identify and evaluate opportunities to improve critical materials security through strategies that align with DOE's CMM program focus areas (e.g., broaden supply, develop alternatives, improve manufacturing efficiency, reuse/recycle).

  • Supporting stakeholder engagement with industry, states, communities, labs, and other partners-helping translate technical topics into clear, actionable insights.

  • Contributing to or reviewing content for communications products (fact sheets, case studies, website copy, outreach materials) that describe complex technical work accurately and accessibly.

  • Supporting proposal/capture efforts by providing technical solutioning, win themes, or rapid-turn inputs for DOE, state, and private sector opportunities in critical minerals and mining.

  • Bringing a client-first, quality-driven mindset, consistent with ICF's emphasis on actionable guidance and timely, high-quality delivery.

Minimum qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant field such as mining engineering, geology, metallurgical/materials engineering, chemical engineering, environmental engineering, earth sciences, or a related technical discipline.

  • 10+ years of demonstrated experience in critical minerals and materials, including one or more of the following: mining/mineral economics, mineral processing, separation/refining, metallurgy, battery materials, rare earths, recycling/circularity, manufacturing supply chains, or resource strategy.

  • Strong understanding of critical mineral supply chain risks and resilience strategies, and the intersection with energy technology, manufacturing, and national security objectives.

  • Experience producing client-ready technical deliverables (memos, reports, briefings) with a high standard of clarity, accuracy, and defensibility.

  • Excellent interpersonal skills; comfort collaborating in multi-disciplinary teams and working directly with clients and stakeholders.

  • Ability to work effectively in an on-call capacity, flexing time and workload based on project needs

Preferred qualifications:

  • Advanced degree (M.S. or Ph.D.) in a relevant technical discipline (materials/metallurgical engineering, mining engineering, geology, chemical engineering, etc.).

  • Experience supporting federal programs (DOE preferred) or national lab/innovation ecosystem engagements related to applied RD&D, commercialization pathways, or technology-to-market transitions.

  • Familiarity with the types of priorities CMEI has emphasized under its current structure-e.g., supply chain diversification, processing/metallurgy innovation, battery/magnet R&D, and recycling of battery materials/black mass.

  • Demonstrated experience with one or more of the following:

    • Techno-economic analysis (TEA), cost/market modeling, or supply chain scenario analysis

    • Circular economy program design; recycling system assessments

    • Sustainability considerations in mining and materials processing

    • Permitting/regulatory context (e.g., environmental review considerations)

  • Strong data analysis skills (Excel and/or equivalent tools); ability to interpret and communicate complex datasets clearly.

  • Professional credentials (preferred as relevant): Professional Engineer (PE), Professional Geologist (PG), SME credentials, Certified Professional Geologist (CPG), PMP, or other relevant certifications.

Why you will love working here:

  • Quality of life: Flexible workplace arrangements and work-life balance

  • Investment in community: Donation matching and volunteer opportunities

  • Investment in you: 401k matching, Employee Stock Purchase Plan, sick leave, and access to professional development resources

  • Mission-driven impact: Help advance practical solutions that strengthen domestic critical mineral supply chains and energy innovation priorities.

  • A deep bench and collaborative culture: Work alongside teams known for delivering trusted, actionable guidance with agility and responsiveness.

  • And many more! Ask your recruiter for more details.
