  • Maintenance & Reliability – Perform inspections, repairs, and provide technical support to minimise downtime and maximise productivity.
  • Project Management – Manage mechanical engineering projects end-to-end, coordinating stakeholders to ensure successful delivery.
  • Safety & Compliance – Ensure compliance with engineering standards, conduct risk assessments, and embed safety-in-design principles.
  • Analysis & Optimisation – Carry out stress, fatigue, and thermal analysis to drive performance and efficiency improvements.
  • Maintenance Support – Lead engineering investigations into failures and recommend design modifications, support maintainers with documentation and training.

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering (or related).
  • Minimum 5 years' experience in mechanical engineering within mining or heavy industry.
  • Proven experience in design, analysis, and optimisation of mechanical systems.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and project management skills.
  • Proficient in engineering software and tools.
  • Collaborative communicator with the ability to work effectively across multidisciplinary teams.
  • Professional engineering license highly regarded.
  • Ability to meet site requirements, including a current National Police Clearance (or ability to obtain), pre-employment medical, and drug & alcohol screen.

Why Liontown
At Liontown, you'll be joining a company that's helping drive the clean energy future. Our operations are designed with sustainability at their core — powered by renewables and built for long-term impact.
