Conducts research projects using established protocols, processes, and procedures by developing and modeling the topography and aqueous features of a tailings management facility within a virtual simulation environment.
Oversees and assists in the development and execution of research simulations, including the representation of operational elements (e.g., earth‑moving equipment) and the planning and preparation of supporting research documentation.
Ensures the quality and functionality of research tools and environments by evaluating simulation performance to support immersive research and learning experiences using virtual reality interfaces and conventional desktop systems.
Ensures consistency and comparability of research environments by aligning the user experience of the tailings management facility simulation with an existing mineral concentrator simulation.
Recommends and implements improvements to existing methods of analysis or research through the evaluation of simulation design, interaction methods, and analytical approaches.
Analyzes and interprets research data and disseminates the results, including the preparation of formal research reports and documentation related to simulation-based research activities.
Writes methodological or technical research documentation, including guidelines informed by best practices (e.g., version control and development workflows), to support future expansion of research simulations by students and researchers.
Assists in maintaining research standards and reproducibility by developing structured documentation that enables systematic refinement and extension of the simulation environment.
Qualifications:
Possesses a Master’s Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field
Strong expertise with the Unity development platform and Autodesk Maya
