Geologist - Nickel Specialist

7 days ago

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Arca Full time

About us
At Arca, we pull carbon dioxide from the air and store it permanently as rock. To do this at scale, we partner with the minerals industry to implement our technology at mines.

These are the same mines that are producing the minerals (nickel, for example) necessary for the transition to a clean energy future.

Arca, formerly Carbin Minerals, is a start-up spun out of the MDRU Carbon Mineralization program at the University of British Columbia and builds on more than 20 years of research by Greg Dipple and his lab.


We believe that by working with nature, not against it, we can achieve carbon dioxide removal on the scale needed to secure thriving and abundant life on Earth for generations to come.

If that resonates, we want to hear from you.

We're building a team of sharp, mission-driven, and collaborative individuals who take pride in using their skills to contribute to a sustainable future.


Position Overview

As a Geologist - Nickel Specialist at Arca, you will need to:

  • Conduct a comprehensive analysis of historical and active mines in Canada
  • Utilize mining and GIS databases, complemented by your own geological and mineralogical knowledge, to compile a master database of sites suitable for Arca's technology
  • Undertake field visits to collect site samples and use data to refine the master database
  • Interpret a variety of data and analyse results
  • Lead projects from desktop review to possible site acquisition, requiring both deep technical knowledge and project management experience
  • Liaise with geologists, mining engineers and commercial managers

  • Engage with mining companies to understand and execute processes leading to technology deployment
  • Write technical reports for clients and for internal discussion
  • Give presentations at conferences and other events

  • A competitive salary
