  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in engineering, computer science, or a related field is an asset.
  • Professional Engineer (P.Eng) license or similar certification is an asset.

First Year Goals:

  • Learn the current and envisioned future state of MacLean Engineering’s ~15 core underground mining product line’s control systems.
  • Support the design of existing relay-based, controller-based, PLC-based control systems currently being utilized in our fleet of product lines.
  • Support the design and implementation of the new robotic/CAN-based Abi Bolter.
  • Support the design and implementation of new CAN bus control product “MacLean Operating System (MOS)” with new top-level architecture designs for 2 vehicle application types (i.e. Rockbreaker).
  • Create/support control system-based training modules or instructor-led classes.
