Position Summary

We are seeking a Autonomous Haulage Systems Engineer to spearhead the design, implementation, and commissioning of an Autonomous Haulage System (AHS) for our Taconite Mine Operation in Minnesota's Mesabi Iron Range. The system will utilize 400-ton haul trucks (e.g. Komatsu 980E-4AT) in coordination with the Komatsu PC7000 shovel. This is a hands on, strategic leadership role focused on developing a reliable technical and operational framework tailored to the abrasive taconite ore and the region's extreme environmental conditions, including sub-zero temperatures. Working closely with teams across mine planning, IT, operations, maintenance, and OEM partners like Komatsu, the engineer will ensure seamless AHS integration, full MSHA compliance, and secure IT / OT infrastructure to manage cybersecurity risks. Additionally, the engineer will lead workforce training initiatives and support sustainability goals through improved fuel efficiency and system optimization.

Job Responsibilities

  • Design and integrate AHS platform for taconite mining, cybersecurity for AHS, and integration with fleet management systems (FMS).
  • Oversee AHS deployment, ensuring compatibility with fleet management systems.
  • Ensure MSHA compliance and implement safety features (e.g. obstacle detection).
  • Develop secure IT / OT networks to mitigate cybersecurity risks.
  • Monitor KPIs (e.g. equipment utilization, productivity, safety) using analytics.
  • Collaborate with Komatsu and internal teams to establish site layout, traffic rules, and interaction protocols.
  • Optimize routes for fuel efficiency and reduced emissions.
  • Create operational, safety, and emergency response frameworks specific to autonomous haulage.
  • Manage vendor relationships, site integration, and testing / commissioning milestones.
  • Ensure system performance meets safety, productivity, and reliability standards through commissioning and ramp-up.
  • Develop training materials, SOPs, and change management processes for autonomous operations.
  • Serve as liaison between operations, maintenance, IT, and OEM support for ongoing system performance.

Skills and Qualifications

  • 7+ years of mining or heavy industrial experience (experience with AHS platforms, taconite mining, IT / OT systems, and cybersecurity preferred).
  • Knowledge of MSHA regulations and safety protocols.
  • Experience building teams in a start-up or brownfield mine environment.
  • Familiarity with fleet management systems (FMS) SCADA, or mine automation platforms.
  • Project management certification (PMP or equivalent) preferred.
  • Excellent problem-solving, communication, and leadership skills.
  • Ability to work under pressure in a fast-paced, high-risk environment.
  • Education

  • Bachelor's degree in Mine Engineering, Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Systems, or a related field.
  • Physical Requirements

  • This position is a mixture of field work and office duties. Exposure to the elements (rain, snow, cold, heat, etc.) is to be expected. Office duties will require work in front of a laptop, desk, and phone.
  • Salary

  • $130,000 - $170,000 annually, depending on experience and qualifications.
  • Benefits

  • Health Insurance
  • Comprehensive medical and dental coverage with an HSA option.

  • Retirement Plan
  • 401(k) with 6% company match.

  • Lincoln STD, LTD, & Life Insurance
  • Coverage provided by Mesabi Metallics.

  • Paid Time Off (PTO)
  • 0-5 Years : 120 hours per year.

  • 5-10 Years : 160 hours per year.
  • 10+ Years : 200 hours per year.
  • Plus 9 paid holiday and 2 floating holidays.
  • Mesabi Metallics Company LLC is an equal opportunity employer and values diversity in the workplace. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where all employees feel valued, respected, and empowered to contribute to our success.
