About the Role

The Mining Engineering Intern will partner closely with the Mine Planning and Operations teams to support engineering projects for our Nevada Projects portfolio.

  • Learn to review and develop mine engineering deliverables, including short-range or long-range mine plans, scheduling, and drill & blast designs.

  • Assist the team in technical trade-off studies, haulage optimizations, or equipment sizing evaluations to support operational efficiency.

  • Support the design, execution, and data analysis of mine production tracking and continuous improvement programs alongside the engineering team.

Qualifications & Requirements

  • Currently enrolled as a rising senior in an Undergraduate program or final-year Masters or PhD student pursuing a degree in Mining Engineering or a related discipline.

  • Foundational understanding of open-pit or underground mining methods, mine planning principles, and earthmoving equipment operations.

  • Familiarity with or strong interest in mine planning software platforms (e.g., Vulcan, Deswik, Hexagon) is a plus.

  • Strong technical writing, reporting, and presentation skills.

  • Ability to analyze datasets, draw logical conclusions, and present findings clearly.

  • A collaborative mindset with an eagerness to learn and proactively ask questions.

  • Must be legally authorized to work in the United States.

  • Valid driver's license required; willingness to travel to project sites if necessary.
