The posting

Performance Driller

Location: Alachua, FL or another Sandvik Mining office location

Drive real performance improvements in surface mining—globally.

As a Performance Driller, you’ll bring deep operational expertise directly to mine sites around the world. This is a hands‑on, customer‑facing role for an experienced surface mine driller who takes pride in safety, efficiency, and developing others. You’ll train operators, optimize drilling performance, and serve as a trusted technical partner—both in the field and at our Alachua manufacturing facility.

What You’ll Do

Deliver performance where it matters most

  • Train drill operators and mine supervisors on Sandvik rotary drills in open‑pit surface mines worldwide and at our Alachua facility.
  • Demonstrate drills during trials and support customers through start‑ups and performance optimization initiatives.
  • Analyze drilling performance metrics (quality, time, cost) and benchmark results against industry best practices.

Coach, assess, and elevate capability

  • Conduct training needs assessments and operator audits to identify skill gaps.
  • Design and deliver customized on‑site and classroom training programs.
  • Provide constructive, actionable coaching and feedback to improve operator competence and confidence.

Optimize safety, efficiency, and cost

  • Adapt drilling approaches to varying ground conditions to maximize penetration rates and minimize tool wear and cost per foot.
  • Optimize drill settings and rock tools for peak performance.
  • Make data‑driven recommendations to improve safety and productivity across drilling and blasting operations.

Lead by example in safety

  • Champion safe work practices and Sandvik’s EHS vision of Zero Harm in every environment.
  • Identify and report hazards, unsafe behaviors, and improvement opportunities.
  • Follow all IMS, regulatory, and site‑specific safety requirements.​

What You Bring

Experience & technical expertise

  • 10+ years of production blasthole drilling experience with rotary and DTH applications (top hammer a plus).
  • 5+ years of delivering drill operator training in surface mining environments.
  • Strong knowledge of drill patterns, drilling program design, and performance optimization.
  • Working knowledge of rotary tri‑cone bits and pneumatic DTH hammers (rebuild experience a plus).
  • Experience with intelligent or autonomous drill rigs is an advantage.

Skills & working style

  • Clear, confident communicator with the ability to coach, influence, and build trust with operators and customers.
  • Self‑directed and adaptable, comfortable working independently in dynamic field environments.
  • Ability and willingness to travel extensively, both domestically and internationally, in support of global mining operations.

Education

  • High school diploma or GED required.

Work authorization

  • Must have the legal right to work in the United States on an indefinite basis without employer sponsorship. (Please note: temporary work authorizations, including OPT, do not meet this requirement.)

Work Environment & Physical Requirements

This role spans manufacturing, office, and active mine environments and requires regular standing, walking, climbing, and lifting (50+ lbs), wearing PPE, and working around loud equipment. International travel is a core part of the job.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
