What You’ll Do:As an Exploration Project Geologist at GeologicAI RXS, your role sits at the intersection of 3 core domains of expertise: exploration site logistics and operations, day‑to‑day drill program management and technical leadership. The role is much broader than a typical project manager because success in the role depends on coordinating people, equipment, budgets, schedules, safety, and technical decisions in remote and constantly changing environments.
This is a hands‑on technical role based primarily in Arizona.
Key Roles and Responsibilities:- Ensuring equipment, field supplies, and other required materials arrive when needed
- Managing field schedules and drill program work plans
- Overseeing health, safety, environmental, and regulatory requirements
- Troubleshooting operational issues that threaten schedule or budget
- Managing and tracking progress (drill, log, scan, sample, assay) against milestones
- Managing contractors and vendor performance
- Identifying and mitigating risks
- Reporting project status to leadership and stakeholders
- Balancing competing priorities and resources
- Supporting Senior Geologist with reviewing exploration data and results
- Interpreting technical findings with geologists, engineers, or scientists
- Making recommendations to Senior Geologists on next phases of work
- Integrating operational realities with technical objectives
In practice, a typical day might involve:
- Reviewing drilling progress, retrieving drilled core boxes in the morning
- Resolving a contractor or equipment issue before lunch
- Updating schedules, trackers and dashboards in the afternoon
- Meeting with Senior Geologists, Exploration VP and clients Senior Leadership to adjust the exploration program based on new results
- Reporting risks and recommendations to leadership
The role is often described as being the person who can translate between the field crews, technical specialists, contractors, and executives while maintaining a clear view of the project's overall objectives.
Who This Role Is For:We are looking for a hands‑on Exploration Project Geologist at the mid‑level career stage (3 to 7 years of experience) with a background including a few years logging core (maybe even cut and sample core), so you understand drilling and logging well with a clear progression over to managing exploration drill programs in the field. We require a bachelor’s degree in geoscience related field in addition to required field experience.
WhatWe Look For:
- Clear, structured communicator (especially under pressure)
- Strong organisational and coordination skills
- Disciplined about role boundaries and escalation
- Understands the physical demand of a drill program and a core warehouse operation
- Calm, pragmatic, and accountable mindset
