Location : Las Vegas, NV or Denver, CO Duration : 12 weeks
About the Role
The Geotechnical Engineering Intern will partner closely with the Geotechnical and Mine Planning teams to support engineering projects for our Nevada Projects portfolio.

Key Responsibilities
Take ownership of a dedicated 12-week project, managing timelines, and delivering a final technical report and presentation. Learn to review geotechnical engineering deliverables and design criteria, including parameters for open-pit slopes, waste dumps, and related infrastructure. Assist the team in technical trade-off studies to support geotechnical design and mine planning solutions. Support the design, execution, and data analysis of geotechnical investigation and testwork programs alongside the engineering team. Qualifications & Requirements
Currently enrolled as a rising senior in an Undergraduate program or final-year Master's or PhD student pursuing a degree in Engineering Geology, Geotechnical Engineering, or a related discipline. Foundational understanding of rock mechanics, soil mechanics, hydrology, and engineering geology principles. Familiarity with or strong interest in open-pit operations and geotechnical software (e.g., Rocscience, Unwedge) or mine planning tools is a plus. Strong technical writing, reporting, and presentation skills. Ability to analyze datasets, draw logical conclusions, and present findings clearly. A collaborative mindset with an eagerness to learn and proactively ask questions. Must be legally authorized to work in the United States. Valid driver’s license required; willingness to travel to project sites if necessary. Fall Recruitment Timeline & Hiring Milestones
September 15 – October 30, 2026 (Application Review): Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. Early submission is highly encouraged.
Successful applicants will move to a virtual interview with the internship program manager.
October 12 – November 6, 2026 (Final Rounds): Finalists are invited to a virtual hiring manager interview.
