Mining Automation Engineering Recruitment

Specialist recruitment for autonomous haulage, drill automation, and mining robotics engineers across Australia and North America.

Australia is the global centre of mining automation. Tier 1 operators in the Pilbara and Queensland are running the world's largest autonomous haulage fleets, and the demand for engineers who understand the intersection of embedded systems, machine vision, and mine site safety is growing faster than the supply. RunTime Recruitment places engineers across the full mining automation stack — from OEM equipment manufacturers building the hardware through to the mine operators deploying and maintaining autonomous systems at scale. We understand proximity detection standards, AHS architecture, and the functional safety requirements that mining automation engineers must work within. We also support international sponsorship for qualified engineers, connecting Australian mining operators with experienced candidates from established automation markets in North America and Europe.

  • Autonomous haulage system (AHS) engineers
  • Drill automation and guidance engineers
  • Proximity detection and collision avoidance engineers
  • Underground automation and navigation engineers
  • Mining robotics and machine vision engineers
  • PLC and control systems engineers for mining
  • Embedded firmware engineers for mining equipment OEMs
