  • Provide technical leadership and direction to mechanical engineers and designers across mining and mineral processing projects.
  • Lead and coordinate mechanical engineering scope and deliverables across studies, detailed design, procurement, construction support and commissioning.
  • Lead the design, specification and integration of mechanical process equipment, platework, piping, pumping, conveyors and material handling systems.
  • Review and approve key mechanical deliverables including calculations, equipment specifications, datasheets, Mechanical Equipment Lists, drawings, PFDs and P&IDs.
  • Lead mechanical design reviews, resolve complex technical issues, and ensure designs consider safety, constructability, operability and maintainability.
  • Coordinate mechanical resources, allocate work, maintain consistent engineering practices, and mentor engineers and technical personnel.
  • Lead technical interfaces with vendors and procurement, including equipment packages, technical bid evaluations, vendor data and drawings.
  • Provide construction and commissioning support, including RFIs, technical queries, field issues, design changes and non-conformance resolution.
  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and act as a key mechanical engineering interface with clients, vendors and internal stakeholders.
  • Support proposals and business development while promoting safety, quality, applicable standards and continuous improvement.

  • 10+ years of relevant mechanical engineering experience, preferably within mining, mineral processing, EPC/EPCM or heavy industrial environments.
  • Demonstrated experience in a lead or technical leadership role coordinating engineers and designers on multidisciplinary projects.
  • Strong experience across the project lifecycle, from studies and conceptual design through detailed engineering, construction and commissioning.
  • Strong technical knowledge of mechanical process equipment, plant layouts, pumping and piping systems, platework, conveyors and material handling equipment.
