Our client is advancing a high-potential gold project in one of Canada’s most prolific districts. With the project moving through advanced exploration and underground development, there’s a clear path toward a significant, long-life operation.
We’re looking for a Sr. Mine Engineer who thrives in technically critical, hands-on roles. This isn’t a desk job. It’s a site-based position for someone who’s at home underground, working alongside crews and contractors to turn plans into progress.
What You’ll Do:
- Own the short-, medium-, and long-range mine plans that drive protected, efficient development.
- Deliver engineering designs that are ready for the field—not just theoretical.
- Spend time underground validating designs, solving problems in real time, and supporting active development.
- Manage 18-month rolling plans and tight 3–6-month development schedules.
- Sign off on underground designs, including ramps, stopes, ventilation, and infrastructure.
- Track performance and turn site data into practical adjustments.
- Model alternative mining scenarios to improve safety, sequencing, and productivity.
- Partner with geology and rock mechanics to integrate ore and ground control into mine plans.
- Provide the site-level engineering insight that feeds life-of-mine strategy and capital decisions.
- Mentor junior engineers and planners as the site team grows.
What You’ll Bring:
- A Bachelor’s degree in Mining Engineering and a P.Eng. (or eligibility) in Ontario.
- 5–7+ years of experience in underground mine engineering.
- A practical, "boots-on-the-ground" understanding of drill-and-blast and long-hole stoping.
- Proven experience with ventilation, dewatering, and ground support infrastructure.
- Expert-level skill with planning software like Deswik, MineSight, or Mine 24D.
- A reputation as a resource that crews, contractors, and leadership can rely on.
- The drive to work on rotation or relocate to the Red Lake area.
What’s in It for You:
- A chance to take real ownership of underground development at a pivotal project stage.
- Direct involvement in future production planning and major capital decisions.
- A collaborative, safety-first environment where your engineering actually makes an impact.
- Competitive compensation, solid benefits, and a clear path for professional growth.
