Careers

SaaS Sales, Mining Intelligence, & Team Leadership

Location: In Office or Remote  Type: Full-Time

The Opportunity:  Burgex Mining Consultants is the “Tech-Enabled Specialist” for the mining industry. Our secret weapon is Mineralocity, the industry’s most advanced market intelligence platform for aggregates and industrial minerals.

We are looking for an entrepreneurial leader to take the helm of the Mineralocity division.

This is not a passive account management role. This is a high-octane “Hunter” role for a professional who sits at the intersection of Mining, GIS Data, and Software Sales. You will lead the Mineralocity team, drive subscription revenue, and serve as the bridge between our data and our consulting services.

If you are a mining professional tired of the slow lane, or a SaaS sales pro who loves the industry, this is your chance to run a business-within-a-business with uncapped earning potential.

What You Will Do (The Mission)

• Drive Revenue (The Hunter): You are responsible for the Mineralocity P&L. You will demo the platform, negotiate contracts, and close subscription deals with producers, banks, and investors.
• Master the Upsell (The Flywheel): You will identify when a software subscriber has a problem that software can’t solve. You will pivot those conversations to upsell high-margin Burgex Consulting Services (Market Studies, Valuations).
• Lead the Product Vision: You will work directly with our Developers and GIS Analysts. You are the voice of the customer, guiding the roadmap to ensure the platform delivers the exact value the market demands.
• Build the Brand: You will represent Mineralocity at industry conferences (SME, NSSGA), web demos, and in the boardroom.

The “Burgex Fit” (Who You Are)

• You Speak “Mining”: You understand the difference between a greenfield exploration project and an operating quarry. You can talk shop with a CEO or a Geologist.
• You Are Data-Fluent: You don’t need to be a coder, but you need to understand GIS, spatial data, and how technology de-risks mining projects.
• You Are Entrepreneurial: You aren’t looking for a safe 9-to-5 paycheck. You want a role where your income is directly tied to your hustle and your results.

Qualifications & Experience

• Experience: 3–5+ years in Technical Sales, Business Development, or Product Management within the Mining, Construction, or Industrial Software sectors.
• Industry Knowledge: Familiarity with the Construction Aggregates industry is a massive plus.
• Tech Savvy: Comfortable conducting demos via Teams, using CRM tools, and understanding basic GIS concepts.
• Leadership: Proven ability to collaborate with technical teams (developers/analysts) to deliver a product to market.

Compensation Structure

• This position is designed for a high-performer. It features a base salary with an aggressive, commission structure on both Subscription Sales and Consulting Upsells.
• If you believe in your ability to close, this package offers significantly higher earning potential than a standard salary role.

Why Burgex?

• Ownership: You will effectively run your own division with the support of an established brand.
• Impact: You are selling the tool that is modernizing an antiquated industry.
• Flexibility: We focus on results. This role offers hybrid/remote flexibility for the right self-starter.

To Apply Please submit your resume and a brief note explaining why you are the right person to bridge the gap between Mining and Software.

Staff Geologist

Focus: Exploration & Field Services Location: USA (Hybrid/Field) Type: Full-Time/Contract

The Opportunity: Where “Ground Truth” Meets Data Burgex Mining Consultants is the “Tech-Enabled Specialist” for the mining industry. We are looking for an ambitious Staff Geologist to join our Exploration team.

As a Staff Geologist at Burgex, you are the eyes and ears of the firm. You will work at the intersection of traditional field exploration and modern data intelligence. You will be responsible for gathering the “Ground Truth”—the critical field data that feeds our valuations, engineering models, and our proprietary Mineralocity platform.

If you are comfortable in a 4×4 on a remote ridge and comfortable building a map in GIS, this is the place to excel your career. 

What You Will Do (The Mission)

• Execute Field Programs: You will lead and support field campaigns across the Mountain West. This includes soil/rock sampling, geologic mapping, and project management.
• Drill Program Management: Oversee drilling operations (Core/RC). You will manage subcontractors, log core, and ensure that every foot of data is recorded accurately and safely.
• Digital Integration: Take the data you collect in the field and integrate it into the office workflow. You will use ArcGIS/QGIS to digitize maps, manage sample databases, and assist in creating technical reports.
• Safety Stewardship: You will often be the Burgex representative on-site. You are responsible for maintaining a culture of safety, managing MSHA compliance, and ensuring subcontractors follow protocols.

The “Burgex Fit” (Who You Are)

• You Are Field-Ready: You thrive outdoors. You understand that exploration happens in rain, snow, and heat, and you know how to handle a vehicle and yourself in remote terrain.
• You Are Tech-Forward: You don’t fear software. You see GIS not just as a mapping tool, but as a way to solve problems.
• You Are Curious: You are eager to learn about Construction Aggregates and Industrial Minerals, understanding that the economics of a sand quarry are just as fascinating as a gold mine.

Qualifications & Experience

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Geology, Geoscience, or Earth Science (Master’s degree is a plus).
• Experience: 1–3 years of relevant field experience (strong internship experience will be considered).
• Technical Skills:
• Working knowledge of GIS software (ArcGIS, QGIS) is highly preferred.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and data management.
• Field Requirements:
• Valid Driver’s License and clean driving record.
• Experience with 4WD vehicles and off-road driving.
• Physical ability to hike in rugged terrain and lift up to 50 lbs.
• Travel: Willingness to travel up to 50% of the time during the field season.

Why Burgex?

• Mentorship: Work directly alongside Principal Consultants and Engineers. You won’t be siloed; you will learn the business of mining from the ground up.
• Variety: One week you might be mapping a limestone deposit for a quarry; the next, you might be sampling for precious metals.
• Growth: We are a fast-growing firm. We prefer to promote from within, offering a clear path from Staff Geologist to Senior Geologist.

Location & Flexibility This position is based out of our headquarters in Sandy, Utah.

• Field Season: Expect significant travel to project sites across the US West.
• Office Season: We offer a hybrid schedule (mix of office and home) for report writing and data work.

To Apply Please submit your resume and a cover letter describing your field experience and your familiarity with GIS.
