Contribute to the continuous improvement of rock mechanics methodologies and standards.

Qualifications

Required

Bachelor's degree in Geological Engineering, Mining Engineering, Civil Engineering, or a related discipline.
Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) designation or eligibility for registration within Canada.
Approximately 5 to 10 years of relevant experience in rock mechanics, geotechnical engineering, or mining engineering.
Experience supporting underground mining projects.
Proficiency with industry software such as:
- Rocscience Suite (RS2, RS3, Slide, Dips, UnWedge, Examine)
- FLAC3D
- Map3D
- Leapfrog or similar geological modelling platforms
Strong technical report writing and communication skills.
Ability to travel to active mining operations.

Preferred

Experience with hard rock mining operations.
Exposure to mine design, mine planning, or ground control programs.
