The Role
The Specialist, Mine Engineer – Arthur Gold Project (AGP) provides technical mining engineering expertise across short-, medium-, and long-term mine planning, pit design, drill-and-blast optimization, and production scheduling. This role bridges feasibility study requirements and active operational execution, ensuring that open-pit mine sequences, haulage networks, and waste rock storage facilities are optimized for safety, operational efficiency, regulatory compliance, and maximum economic value.
As a key technical operational engineer, this position partners closely with Geotechnical, Hydrogeology, Process, Site Maintenance, and Mine Operations teams to align daily material movement with long-term strategic plans across Nevada Projects.
- Develop, maintain, and optimize life-of-mine (LOM), medium-term, and short-range open-pit mine plans, ensuring alignment between strategic business plans and tactical pit operations.
- Deliver detailed phase designs, haul road layouts, ramp alignments, and waste dump / stockpile designs adhering to geotechnical slope stability parameters and equipment operating constraints.
- Design and optimize drill-and-blast patterns, powder factors, tie-in sequences, and wall-control blasting protocols to minimize vibration, prevent wall damage, and optimize fragmentation for downstream processing.
- Direct monthly mine production reconciliation (tonnes, grade, material types) comparing actual fleet production against short-term forecasts and reserve models to identify and correct variances.
- Conduct equipment productivity analyses, cycle time studies, and haulage simulations to optimize fleet allocation, fuel efficiency, and haul road maintenance schedules.
- Partner closely with Geotechnical and Hydrogeology teams to incorporate slope stability monitoring, radar data, depressurization layouts, and in-pit dewatering networks into active mine designs.
- Support mining contractor management, technical scope-of-work development, bid evaluations, and operational readiness activities leading into commercial production as required.
- Bachelor of Science in Mining Engineering, Geological Engineering, or a closely related engineering discipline required.
- Active Professional Engineer (PE) license (or progress toward licensure)…
