Unlike a pure compliance role, this position is deeply embedded in the mine planning and engineering phase. You will actively model, simulate, and design the aerodynamic environments for expanding underground operations. Working closely with Mine Planning and Operational teams, you will directly influence mine design, fleet changes, and infrastructure development. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES Engineering & Design: Model, design, and optimize long-term underground ventilation systems and infrastructure across two mining operations. Advanced Simulation: Maintain, update, and run complex scenario modelling using Ventsim to support life-of-mine planning and fleet modifications. Mine Planning Integration: Collaborate with Mine Planning teams to determine airflow and infrastructure requirements for development and stoping. Technical Surveys: Conduct advanced ventilation surveys, analyze airway resistance, and troubleshoot complex airflow bottlenecks. Statutory Compliance: Develop, implement, and maintain the Ventilation Management Plan (VMP) in alignment with NSW mining legislation. Environmental Control: Monitor and manage heat loads, DPM, and atmospheric contaminants, translating data into engineering solutions. ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS Education: Bachelor of Engineering (Mining) or an equivalent tertiary engineering qualification. Specialization: A Graduate Diploma in Mine Ventilation is highly desirable. Experience: 4 to 5+ years of dedicated ventilation engineering experience specifically within underground hard rock mining environments. Software Proficiency: Hands-on, practical proficiency in Ventsim and Deswik CAD is essential for this role. Regulatory Knowledge: Deep familiarity with Australian mining legislation, specifically NSW ventilation statutory requirements. Logistics: Valid Driver's licence (Manual), clear criminal record, and a valid passport.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2417,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-11T12:05:00Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":24,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":0.6,"p_active":0.733,"p_room":0.55,"age_days":30,"expected_fill_days":25,"reasons":["seen:30","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-11-11T13:30:14Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/beyond-talent-mining-engineer-ventilation-systems-specialist","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/beyond-talent-mining-engineer-ventilation-systems-specialist.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-11T13:30:14Z","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":24617,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-12T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"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":4529188},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4529188"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fbeyond-talent-mining-engineer-ventilation-systems-specialist"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"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%2Fbeyond-talent-mining-engineer-ventilation-systems-specialist"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"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%2Fbeyond-talent-mining-engineer-ventilation-systems-specialist"},{"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/beyond-talent-mining-engineer-ventilation-systems-specialist\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fbeyond-talent-mining-engineer-ventilation-systems-specialist"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":4067735}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"beyondtalent.co.za","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":4067735},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
