About The Position

We are seeking a Technical Analyst for the Mining & Metals team, based in Winnemucca, Nevada. The purpose of this role is to collect, study, and analyze project and GBU ES&H data, to assist in the development and implementation of improvement efforts to support various ES&H functions in the areas of incident prevention, learning and development, Craft Based Leadership (CBL), and Six Sigma. Duties require accuracy, judgment, initiative, and understanding of relevant ES&H processes, automation tools, and associated supporting computer software. Thacker Pass is the largest known lithium resource in the United States. Once complete, the mine and processing facilities will produce more lithium carbonate than any other facility in the United States by far – enough to power 1 million electric vehicles per year. The project is located in the high desert and wide-open spaces of north-central Nevada, about 25 miles from the Oregon border, 1 hour northwest of Winnemucca, Nevada, and 3 hours northeast of Reno. Planned with sustainability and the environment in mind, the facility will use its excess process heat to generate electricity and will recycle process water up to seven times. Once the second phase of the project is complete, Thacker Pass will produce more than 16 times the current U.S. output of lithium.
