While much of the industry remains in R&D, we deliver real, production-ready autonomy that is already operating in the field.\nWe are on a mission to make mining operations safer, smarter, and more efficient through cutting-edge technology, and we are building toward becoming the world’s first profitable AV technology company.\nWhat you’ll do\n\nBuild the off-road truck safety case. Claims, evidence, limits, and what remains open. Keep it current as trucks, sites and software change, and be clear about what it does not cover.\nHazard analysis. What the installation introduces on a given truck, what the site already carries, and what the combination creates. Drive the results into requirements and into site controls.\nTest preparation. Define what has to be demonstrated before a truck operates autonomously at a site: the procedures, the acceptance criteria, and what evidence each test actually produces.\nCommissioning readiness. Hold the gate between installed and operating. This is a real gate, and you are the person who helps specify when a site is not ready.\nIncidents and triage. Own the intake path, the severity model, the investigations, and corrective actions through to verified closure.\nChange assessment. Decide what a software release, a new truck variant or a new site layout does to the argument, and what has to happen before it goes live.\nGrow and lead a small team. You will hire one or two engineers as the work justifies them, and lead them. This is not a management role in the usual sense: the safety case, the commissioning gate and the investigations that matter stay with you, while your team takes the recurring load. If you are looking for a path to a large org, this is not that job yet.\nWe expect this role to be materially more productive than the same role was three years ago, and we expect AI tooling to be the reason. A small team covers a surface that would otherwise need several, and the tooling is how that becomes possible rather than a fiction.\nUse it as a working instrument: drafting and maintaining site risk assessments from a common baseline, adapting procedures per site, triaging an event backlog, and finding patterns across sites that nobody reading one site's reports would see.\nBuild your own tooling rather than filing tickets for it, and keep it running once other people depend on it.\nBe rigorous about the boundary. A generated hazard list is a hypothesis to verify, never a risk assessment. Safety determinations need a human who has looked at the evidence and walked the site.\nWhat we’re looking for\n8+ years in systems safety, safety engineering or a closely related systems discipline in a safety-critical domain. Mining experience is not required.\nYou have built a safety argument from scratch - claims, evidence, structure - and defended its sufficiency to someone who pushed back.\nStructured hazard analysis depth at both the system and the operational level, and the judgment to pick the method the situation actually warrants.\nYou have written the process rather than inherited one: investigation, triage, qualification, or their equivalents. Tell us who ran it after you wrote it and what broke.\nComfortable leading one or two people while still being the person who writes the safety case rather than reviewing it.\nPython or SQL sufficient to work event data yourself rather than waiting for an analyst.\nWillingness to travel to sites when needed.\nNice to have\nOff-road, heavy vehicle or industrial machinery experience - mining, quarrying and aggregates, construction, ports or agriculture.\nWorking knowledge of US mine safety regulation, including MSHA Part 46 and 48 training requirements and Part 50 reporting.\nExperience commissioning autonomous or remotely operated equipment on a customer's site.\nExperience adapting an existing safety method into a new domain rather than starting over.\nExperience building a small team from a standing start.\nWhy join us \nWork on real, production-deployed autonomy.\nBuild technology that directly improves safety, efficiency, and productivity.\nTackle complex challenges in demanding, real-world environments.\nBe part of a fast-moving team with high ownership and impact.\nSee your work deployed and making a difference in the field.\nCollaborate closely with experienced engineers and industry operators.\nWhat else you need to know \nThis role is based in our San Francisco office location. As a company driven by innovation and continuous change, close collaboration is essential. We’re constantly reimagining our industry, creating new products, and refining our processes, and we do our best work together. That’s why all of our office-based teams work onsite, five days a week. \nThe base salary range for this role is$195,000 - $240,000 per year.\nActual compensation will be determined on an individual basis and may vary depending on experience, skills, and qualifications.\nBase salary is just one part of your total rewards package. You may also be eligible for equity awards.\nBenefits Summary (USA Full-Time Exempt Employees):\nMedical, Dental, Vision, Disability, and Life Insurance\nFlexible Spending Account / Health Savings Account Options\n401(k)\nEquity\nSick Time, Unlimited Flexible Time Off, and Paid Holidays\nPaid Parental Leave \nPre-Tax Commuter Benefit Plan\nTeam lunch in our SoMa office every Tuesday and Thursday\nBenefits are subject to change at the company's discretion.\nPronto accepts applications on an ongoing basis.\nReady to join us as we serve those who serve others? \n#LI-Onsite","description_format":"text","description_chars":5731,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":8,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Flexible time off","Life insurance","Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Industrial Automation","Industrial Robotics","Mining & Heavy Industry Robotics"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-02T21:50:38Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":10,"expected_fill_days":73,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-12T06:55:09Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":240000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/atoms-safety-engineering-manager-mining-deployments","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/atoms-safety-engineering-manager-mining-deployments.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-12T22:37:39Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":36937,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-13T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":1533},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=1533"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fatoms-safety-engineering-manager-mining-deployments"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fatoms-safety-engineering-manager-mining-deployments"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fatoms-safety-engineering-manager-mining-deployments"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/atoms-safety-engineering-manager-mining-deployments\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fatoms-safety-engineering-manager-mining-deployments"}]}
