About the role
Joining KoBold means getting the opportunity for hands-on exposure to our exploration projects around the world. All employees are expected to travel to project sites, with a minimum of one week per year. Field-facing and technical roles spend significantly more time in the field.
What they're looking for
- Experience in architecting, developing, and maintaining frontend applications that provide a rich user experience
- Experience in writing production-quality code that is correct, performant, scalable, and extensible
- Skilled with data visualization libraries (D3, Leaflet, etc)
- Experience with geospatial data and building map-based experiences
- Familiarity with containerization and container orchestration platforms, such as Docker, AWS ECS, Kubernetes, etc
- Experience with frontend automated-testing systems (Cypress, Selenium, etc)
More about this role
In the coming decades, our world needs far more critical minerals including copper, lithium, and cobalt, to build electric infrastructure, vehicles, data centers, and electronics. The mining industry is making 10x fewer discoveries per dollar spent on exploration compared to 30 years ago because the easy-to-find, near surface deposits have largely been discovered.
KoBold is the leading scientific mineral exploration, mine development, and technology development company. Our goal is to turn mineral exploration into a repeatable science to discover the minerals the world needs—by integrating artificial intelligence, human intelligence, and new technology. Our multidisciplinary teams of data scientists, engineers, and geologists work together to build data systems, design new sensors, and establish industry-leading workflows to develop and test subsurface predictions on our exploration projects.
Our first discovery, Mingomba, is a high-grade copper deposit in Zambia, found after spending materially less than industry average. We are developing Mingomba with the same technical rigor that we apply to exploration. The Mingomba team brings together mine and processing engineers,...
