Full Job Description

Be part of a safety-driven, inclusive and technically strong geotechnical team supporting one of the world’s largest open pit mining operations.

Work in a high-impact role where your technical recommendations directly influence safe mine design, operational execution, risk management and value protection.

Join a collaborative environment with opportunities to work across mine planning, operations, geology, hydrogeology, monitoring, studies, external reviewers and Rio Tinto’s global geotechnical network.

At Rio Tinto, we are committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming workplace where everyone feels safe, respected, and able to succeed. We actively encourage applications from women and from people with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We know that great technical capability comes in many forms, and we’re focused on building teams that reflect the communities we operate in and support each other to do their best work.

We’re Finding Better Ways™ to provide the materials the world needs, now and in the future. Our values – care, courage and curiosity – guide how we work and how we treat each other.

About the role

We are looking for a Senior Geotechnical Design Engineer to support open pit slope design, geotechnical risk management and design implementation at the Bingham Canyon Mine.

Reporting to Superintendent Geotechnical Design, on a Monday to Friday roster and working collaboratively with operational and functional teams, you will be responsible for:

Providing geotechnical engineering support for open pit slope design, design changes and mine plan implementation.

Collecting, reviewing and interpreting geotechnical data, including mapping, core logging, monitoring, drilling, structural geology and rock mass information.

Performing slope stability assessments, including kinematic, deterministic, probabilistic and numerical modelling where required.

Identifying, characterizing and communicating geotechnical hazards and slope instability risks that may impact safety, production or mine value.

Developing practical mitigation, remediation and monitoring recommendations in collaboration with operations, mine planning, geology, hydrogeology and monitoring teams.

Supporting geotechnical design governance processes, including design reviews, risk assessments, technical documentation and alignment with Rio Tinto standards.

About you

A commitment to the safety of yourself and your team

Bachelor’s degree in mining, geological, geotechnical engineering or a related field; master’s degree preferred.

5+ Experience in open pit geotechnical engineering, including slope design, slope stability numerical analysis and geotechnical risk management.

Experience with slope stability assessment methods, including kinematic, deterministic and probabilistic analysis; numerical modelling experience is desirable.

Strong understanding of geotechnical data collection and interpretation, including mapping, core logging, drilling, monitoring data and rock mass characterization.

Ability to identify, assess and communicate geotechnical hazards and develop practical risk mitigation recommendations.

Strong collaboration skills with the ability to work effectively with mine planning, operations, geology, hydrogeology, monitoring teams and external consultants.

Clear written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to prepare technical documentation and communicate recommendations to different audiences.

What we offer

A work environment where safety is always the number one priority.

Competitive base salary reflective of your skills and experience with an annual incentive bonus.

Access to top-tier family-friendly health programs including medical, prescription drug, dental, vision, life insurance coverage, and various voluntary benefits.

Excellent retirement plan including up to 6% defined company contribution; Generous 401k matching program.

Attractive share ownership plan.

Comprehensive leave policies which cover all the moments that matter in life: PTO (paid time off), paid holidays, and paid bereavement leave.

A generous parental leave policy, which ensures you’re able to spend quality time with your new family.

Discount programs for leisure purposes and access to Virgin Pulse with incentives supporting your wellbeing.

Access to our Employee Assistance Program (EAP), which provides confidential counselling or expert guidance for you and your family to help get through life’s challenges.
