ITASCA North America is seeking a Principal Geomechanics/Mining Engineer to provide technical leadership, grow client relationships, mentor engineers, and strengthen our mining geomechanics practice across the U.S. and North America.
This role is suited for a senior mining, geotechnical, or rock mechanics professional with strong technical credibility, practical engineering judgment, and experience leading complex mining projects. Open pit experience is preferred, particularly in slope stability, pit slope design, rock mass characterization, structural geology, monitoring, risk assessment, and operational support.
As a Principal Engineer, you will help clients solve practical mining challenges by combining field-informed judgment, practical geomechanics expertise, and advanced analysis. You will be expected to guide, interpret, critically review, challenge, and clearly explain the outcome of technical work combined with numerical model results so clients can make sound decisions.
Geomechanics decisions directly influence mine safety, design, productivity, risk, and long-term performance.
As a Principal Geomechanics/Mining Engineer, you will help clients understand ground behavior, evaluate uncertainty, and make practical decisions about open pit slope design, mine planning, monitoring, operations, risk management, and closure.
