Do you want to contribute to an industry that is shaping the world of tomorrow - you are welcome to submit your application today!
Your opportunity
As the Engineer of Record (EoR) / Senior Dam Safety Engineer for Our Somincor Tailings Storage Facilities in Portugal, you will play a pivotal role in safeguarding our tailings storage facilities (TSF) throughout their entire lifecycle — from design and construction to operation, closure, and post-closure.
Who you will work with
The role sits within the Dam Safety and Geotechnics department, part of the Sustainability function at Boliden Mines. You will join a knowledgeable and dynamic team responsible for ensuring the integrity and safety of Boliden's TSFs. As EoR, you will collaborate closely with internal and external stakeholders to uphold the highest standards of engineering practice and regulatory compliance.
The position is preferably based in Portugal (Site or our offices in Setubal) but can also be located at any of our operational sites. Regular travel to sites will be required, along with occasional visits to other Boliden locations. Remote work may be considered.
What you will do
As EoR for the Somincor TSF, you will work with facilities in different stages of their lifecycle. The Somincor TSF is in operation, but plans are being put in place to expand it to meet increased Lif of Mine storage requirement. You will therefore oversee design, construction, operation and the path to safe closure for the facilities.
You will ensure compliance with regulatory and internal standards, including the Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management (GISTM). Your responsibilities include documenting engineering decisions, facilitating risk management implementation, reviewing and approving designs and construction documentation, and ensuring that monitoring and surveillance programs are implemented and effective.
You will work closely with operations, environmental teams, senior leadership, as well as external consultants such as Designers of Record, third‐party reviewers, the Independent Tailings Review Board (ITRB), Independent Reviewers (IR), and regulatory authorities. You will also contribute to broader site-wide initiatives such as permitting, Life of Mine planning, and closure planning for the facilities.
As part of the Sustainability staff, you will support the development of governance frameworks, provide technical guidance, and ensure high-quality documentation and reporting. This role is critical in ensuring safe and sustainable tailings management and directly supports Boliden's commitment to responsible mining.
What you bring
A geotechnical or civil engineer with extensive experience in tailings and mine waste management or dam engineering.
A strong background in geotechnical engineering, hydrology and dam safety, ideally with experience as Lead Designer, Designer of Record or Engineer of Record.
Strong leadership capabilities and experience managing multidisciplinary projects.
Excellent communication, interpersonal, writing, mentoring and presentation skills.
Strong time management skills and the ability to engage with a wide range of stakeholders.
Fluency in English is required; proficiency in Portuguese is considered a very strong asset.
A valid EU Category B driving licence is required, as regular travel to our sites will be required.

At Boliden, we believe in promoting a workplace where care, courage, and responsibility are central to everything we do. We offer a workplace for professional growth and development, where we believe in collaboration and where what you contribute will have a direct impact on future generations.
