Product Specialist - Mine Control

About Micromine

Mining is one of the most data-intensive and operationally complex industries - yet much of that complexity still relies on fragmented systems and manual workflows.

Micromine has been addressing this since 1986, building software that transforms geological and operational data into scalable, usable systems across the mining lifecycle. Now part of The Weir Group, we’re accelerating our technology evolution, modernising platforms, improving performance at scale and solving real-world challenges where software must operate reliably in demanding environments.

The Opportunity

This is a hands-on, field-connected position where you’ll work directly with mining operations to implement and optimise fleet management and production systems that influence daily decisions on site.

As a Product Specialist for Micromine Pitram, based in our office in Johannesburg, you will partner with mining companies across the AMEE region to ensure their operations are running with accurate data, optimised workflows and real-time visibility.

If you have experience in mining systems, technical support, or operational technology and want to step into a role with greater impact, visibility, and global exposure, this is where that transition happens.

The Impact you’ll have

• Drive real-time operational decision-making on active mine sites
• Implement and optimise systems that improve production visibility and efficiency
• Partner directly with engineers and site teams to solve complex operational challenges
• Influence how mining technology is used and evolved in real-world environments
• Deliver measurable impact on performance, adoption, and data-driven outcomes  

What you need to succeed

• Experience in mining systems, technical support, OT, or software implementation
• A degree in IT, Mining Engineering, Geology, Mechatronics, or similar
• Working knowledge of databases and networking (e.g. SQL, Oracle)
• Experience delivering training or working closely with end users
• Strong communication skills and confidence working with stakeholders at all levels
• Open to travel (approx. 25 – 30%) across the region and globally

What you can expect from us

• Competitive remuneration plus pension fund and health fund contributions
• Hybrid working model
• 12 weeks paid parental leave (primary and secondary carers)
• Health and wellbeing support, including Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
• Career development within a growing global organisation
