ExploreTech

About the Company

ExploreTech's mission is to discover the raw materials needed for the next millennium of human development. We are a mineral exploration company that believes the solution to critical mineral supply shortages is extreme vertical integration - rewriting the entire exploration stack with purpose-built software. If successful, we will cut discovery timelines from 10 years to 1 year and usher in an era of critical mineral abundance.

About the Role

We’re accelerating the pace of mineral discovery. Geochemistry is a critical part of that process. In this role, you'll lead ExploreTech's geochemistry program. That means setting up in-house geochemistry analyis capabilities. You'll work with field teams to sample and process geeochemical data as close to real-time as possible. You'll also work closely with a team of software engineers to build software that makes everything lightning fast.

Responsibilities

  • Set up lab equipment
  • Develop on-site geochemistry capabilities
  • Work with software engineers to develop analysis software
  • Support mineral exploration teams during field campaigns

Qualifications

  • Masters or PhD in geological science with a focus on geochemistry
  • 5+ years professional experience in exploration
  • Familiar with geochemical labs
  • Able to travel to remote parts of the US and world
