Job Description
Our client is seeking a highly skilled Lead Mining Geologist with a specialization in remote sensing and advanced data analysis to join their pioneering exploration team, operating in a fully remote capacity. This role is crucial for identifying and evaluating potential mineral deposits using cutting-edge geological technologies. You will be responsible for acquiring, processing, and interpreting satellite imagery, LiDAR data, and other geophysical datasets to generate predictive geological models and exploration targets. Key responsibilities include developing and implementing remote sensing workflows, performing spatial analysis using GIS software (e.g., ArcGIS, QGIS), and integrating diverse geological datasets to enhance subsurface understanding. You will collaborate closely with a distributed team of geologists, geophysicists, and data scientists, providing expert geological interpretation and guidance. The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of mineral systems, structural geology, and exploration geochemistry, combined with proficiency in programming languages such as Python or R for data analysis and automation. Experience with machine learning applications in geology is a significant advantage. You will contribute to the strategic planning of exploration programs, report on findings, and present results to senior management. This position requires exceptional analytical skills, a meticulous approach to data management, and the ability to work independently and as part of a remote, international team. While the exploration focus may relate to areas around **Nairobi, Nairobi, KE**, the role itself is entirely remote, offering flexibility. We are looking for an innovative individual who can leverage technology to revolutionize mineral exploration and contribute to sustainable resource development. A strong publication record or contributions to open-source geological software projects will be viewed favorably.
