AI Engineer - Geospatial & Mineral Exploration

Job Description: OriginBluy is building AI systems to accelerate the discovery of critical and rare earth minerals the resources powering the global clean energy transition. We combine Artificial Intelligence with Human Intelligence (AI + HI), integrating advanced machine learning with geological expertise to create next-generation exploration intelligence platforms. Our goal is to help mining and exploration organizations discover mineral resources faster, more accurately, and more cost-efficiently. We are an early-stage, high-ownership team working directly on real exploration challenges from prospectivity modeling and remote sensing analysis to drill targeting and geological data integration. Role Overview: As a technically strong AI Engineer with interest or experience in geospatial and mineral exploration data, you will help design and build intelligent systems that fuse multi-source earth datasets into actionable exploration insights. You will work at the intersection of geoscience, machine learning, remote sensing, spatial analytics, and exploration decision support. This foundational role will directly shape the technology architecture and early product capabilities. Key Responsibilities: - Remote Sensing & Geospatial Analysis: - Process multispectral and hyperspectral imagery (Sentinel-2, Landsat, ASTER, etc.) - Develop workflows for lithological mapping and alteration detection - Perform feature extraction, spectral indices, and terrain analysis - Integrate raster and vector geospatial datasets - Exploration & Drilling Data Modelling: - Clean and model drill hole datasets (assays, lithology logs, coordinates) - Develop ML models for mineralization prediction and anomaly detection - Identify spatial patterns in geochemical and geological datasets - Support 2D/3D subsurface interpretation workflows - Prospectivity Modelling & Target Generation: - Build predictive models using statistical and ML approaches - Perform geospatial feature engineering - Generate ranked exploration targets with confidence metrics - Collaborate with geologists to interpret results - AI Architecture & Data Systems: - Build scalable data pipelines for heterogeneous exploration data - Design multi-modal ML workflows combining imagery, tabular, and text data - Support integration of geological databases and public datasets Qualification Required: We welcome candidates from either of the following backgrounds: Profile A AI / Geospatial Engineer: - Strong ML or data science experience with geospatial or remote sensing exposure Profile B Geoscientist / Mining Professional: - Background in geology, mining, or geophysics with programming and ML skills Curiosity about mineral exploration is essential. Required Qualifications: - 25 years of experience in AI/ML, data science, or geospatial analytics - Strong Python programming skills - Experience working with spatial or scientific datasets - Familiarity with machine learning frameworks (scikit-learn, PyTorch, TensorFlow, etc.) - Understanding of data preprocessing, modeling, and evaluation workflows - Ability to work in an interdisciplinary environment with domain experts Technical Skills: - Spatial & Geospatial: - GeoPandas, Rasterio, GDAL, Shapely, PyProj - QGIS, ArcGIS, or similar tools - Remote Sensing: - Google Earth Engine or satellite imagery processing libraries - Spectral analysis or image processing experience - Machine Learning: - Scikit-learn, XGBoost, LightGBM - PyTorch / TensorFlow (preferred) - Data Handling: - Pandas, NumPy - Scientific data formats (GeoTIFF, shapefiles, CSV, LAS, etc.) Good to Have: - Experience in mineral exploration, mining, or geoscience - Knowledge of geochemistry or geological datasets - 3D subsurface modeling tools - Remote sensing for mineral mapping - Experience with foundation models or LLM workflows - Familiarity with Indian or global geological datasets - Exposure to exploration standards (JORC, NI 43-101) Note: Any additional details of the company were not found in the provided job description.
