Designing the Future of Mining

Durin Mining Technologies is a leading innovator in drilling exploration technology. Despite being a $6B industry, exploration drilling technology has hardly changed in over 60 years. Our mission is to revolutionize that.

We are seeking an experienced mechanical engineer to spearhead the design of autonomous drilling systems including hydraulics, fluid circulation, and actuation. You will work closely alongside electrical and software engineers, testing hardware daily or weekly in various environments.

About the Role:

  • Develop and prototype advanced mechanical systems for autonomous drilling rigs, integrating hydraulic systems, drive mechanisms, and structural elements.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration with electrical, control, and software systems.
  • Conduct simulations, stress analysis, and finite element analysis to guarantee component durability and performance in harsh operational conditions.
  • Lead testing and validation of new designs at a subsystem and integration level, implementing necessary modifications to achieve desired objectives.
  • Optimize mechanical systems for performance, weight, cost, and manufacturability.
  • Cultivate strong relationships with internal stakeholders and customers to drive our roadmap forward.

What We Offer:

  • A competitive salary of $120,000, invested directly into driving innovation and growth.
  • A generous equity package, reflecting your significant contributions to our success.
  • Healthcare coverage, meal allowances, and housing support for those based in Los Angeles.
  • An opportunity to own a product vertical, building a team around yourself and shaping our future.

Requirements:

  • Experience in mechanical design, preferably in heavy machinery, drilling equipment, or autonomous systems.
  • Proficiency in CAD software (NX, SolidWorks, or similar) and FEA tools (ANSYS, Abaqus).
  • A strong understanding of hydraulic systems, drive mechanisms, and structural design.
  • The ability to work in a fast-paced environment, prioritizing autonomy and self-directed learning.

About Us:

Durin Mining Technologies is committed to making a real-world impact through innovative solutions. If you share our passion for solving complex challenges and pushing the boundaries of what's possible, we'd love to hear from you.
