About the position
In this role, you will lead the hydrogeologic work for KoBold’s exploration projects, including pre-feasibility and feasibility engineering studies. You will help to identify, design, and execute all hydrogeologic field programs necessary to maximize the safety, feasibility, and value of our future mines. You will lead the development of state-of-the-science groundwater flow models in support of these goals. Your flow models will be an integrated component of KoBold dynamic mine-planning and operational guiding technology.
You will join an outstanding team of geoscientists, data scientists, and software engineers. You will be a core part of the project teams, advancing the science and practice of exploration. You will help develop novel data collection programs, and work closely with geologists and data scientists to build physics-based and data-driven models of the hydrogeology of our exploration sites. A key challenge will be to quantify uncertainties relevant to mining, and to identify efficient means for reducing these uncertainties as the project advances.
