Plant Mechanical Engineer
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Thus we need to decide which sections to include. The posting includes: About Jerritt Canyon (company description), The Opportunity (role description), Responsibilities (list), Education And Experience (qualifications). Also there is an Equal Employment Opportunity boilerplate which we must remove. We should not include sections like Benefits, Pay, Schedule because not present. We need to use
for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include About Jerritt Canyon description as prose (
). The Opportunity description as prose (
). Responsibilities as list (
- ...). Education And Experience as list (
- ...). Possibly also include "The Opportunity" as a heading? The instructions say use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we can also use other headings? It says "use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." That suggests we should use those standard headings when applicable. However we have "About Jerritt Canyon" which is about the company, not the role. Could we map that to "About the role"? Probably not; but we could still use About Jerritt Canyon
as a heading. The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities...). It doesn't forbid other headings; it's just examples. So we can use headings that match content.
Thus we will output:
About Jerritt Canyon
... (the paragraph)
The Opportunity
... (the paragraph)
Responsibilities
- ...
...
Education And Experience
- ...
...
We must ensure we preserve all substantive information from those sections.
Let's extract the About Jerritt Canyon paragraph:
"About Jerritt Canyon The Jerritt Canyon deposit was discovered in 1972, and the first gold production from the property occurred in 1981. The Jerritt Canyon property contains 30,821 hectares of mining claims located in the mining-friendly state of Nevada. First Majestic acquired the Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine from Sprott Mining Inc. on April 30, 2021. In May 2023, operations were suspended to prioritize exploration and technical studies. Jerritt Canyon is now entering a new phase of evaluation and planning, requiring substantial technical support to advance the work necessary for a potential future restart of operations."
We need to keep that as prose. Possibly split into sentences but keep as .
The Opportunity paragraph:
"The Opportunity The Plant Mechanical Engineer is responsible for providing mechanical engineering expertise to support the safe, reliable, and efficient operation and maintenance of fixed plant and processing facilities within a mining operation. This role focuses on the engineering, reliability, optimization, maintenance, and continuous improvement of mechanical equipment and systems across crushing, conveying, processing, material handling, and associated plant infrastructure. The successful candidate will work closely with Operations, Maintenance, Reliability, Electrical/Instrumentation, Projects, and Engineering teams to identify equipment risks, develop engineering solutions, improve plant availability, and ensure mechanical assets are maintained and operated in accordance with applicable safety, regulatory, and industry standards."
Now Responsibilities: It's a long list of bullet-like sentences each starting with a verb. We need to put each as
- . The text includes many responsibilities separated by periods. We'll split at each sentence that starts with a capital verb? Let's extract the responsibilities block:
"Responsibilities Provide day-to-day mechanical engineering support to mining processing and fixed-plant operations.Troubleshoot mechanical equipment failures and develop practical, cost-effective engineering solutions.Evaluate equipment performance and identify opportunities to improve plant throughput, availability, reliability, and maintainability.Develop engineering calculations, equipment specifications, technical reports, scopes of work, and design documentation.Review mechanical designs, drawings, vendor documentation, and engineering deliverables.Provide technical guidance for modifications, upgrades, replacements, and plant improvement projects.Support management of mechanical engineering changes and ensure appropriate technical documentation is maintained.Provide engineering support for crushers, screens, feeders, conveyors, pumps, compressors, gearboxes, mills, material handling systems, and other fixed-plant mechanical equipment.Assess equipment condition and develop recommendations for repair, refurbishment, replacement, or redesign.Support equipment selection, sizing, specification, and commissioning.Review equipment criticality and failure modes and develop appropriate reliability strategies.Participate in equipment inspections, condition assessments, and root-cause failure investigations.Identify mechanical integrity risks and recommend corrective and preventative actions.Partner with Maintenance and Reliability teams to improve equipment reliability and reduce unplanned downtime.Analyze equipment failure data and maintenance history to identify recurring problems and improvement opportunities.Lead or support Root Cause Analysis (RCA), Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), and reliability improvement initiatives.Develop and optimize preventive and predictive maintenance strategies for critical mechanical assets.Support development of maintenance strategies, job plans, spare-parts requirements, and equipment standards.Monitor key mechanical reliability and maintenance performance indicators.Support feasibility studies, capital projects, plant upgrades, and expansion projects from concept through commissioning.Develop technical scopes and specifications for mechanical equipment and engineering services.Review contractor and vendor proposals and provide technical recommendations.Participate in design reviews, constructability reviews, factory acceptance testing, site acceptance testing, and commissioning activities.Ensure engineering solutions consider safety, maintainability, lifecycle cost, operability, and production requirements. The above duties and responsibilities represent the nature and level of work assigned and are not necessarily all-inclusive."
We need to split each responsibility into separate
- . The sentences are separated by periods but there is no space after period in the original (they run together). We'll need to insert splits logically. We'll produce list items each starting with a verb.
We'll produce items:
- Provide day-to-day mechanical engineering support to mining processing and fixed-plant operations.
- Troubleshoot mechanical equipment failures and develop practical, cost-effective engineering solutions.
- Evaluate equipment performance and identify opportunities to improve plant throughput, availability, reliability, and maintainability.
- Develop engineering calculations, equipment specifications, technical reports, scopes of work, and design documentation.
- Review mechanical designs, drawings, vendor documentation, and engineering deliverables.
- Provide technical guidance for modifications, upgrades, replacements, and plant improvement projects.
- Support management of mechanical engineering changes and ensure appropriate technical documentation is maintained.
- Provide engineering support for crushers, screens, feeders, conveyors, pumps, compressors, gearboxes, mills, material handling systems, and other fixed-plant mechanical equipment.
- Assess equipment condition and develop recommendations for repair, refurbishment, replacement, or redesign.
- Support equipment selection, sizing, specification, and commissioning.
- Review equipment criticality and failure modes and develop appropriate reliability strategies.
- Participate in equipment inspections, condition assessments, and root-cause failure investigations.
- Identify mechanical integrity risks and recommend corrective and preventative actions.
- Partner with Maintenance and Reliability teams to improve equipment reliability and reduce unplanned downtime.
- Analyze equipment failure data and maintenance history to identify recurring problems and improvement opportunities.
- Lead or support Root Cause Analysis (RCA), Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), and reliability improvement initiatives.
- Develop and optimize preventive and predictive maintenance strategies for critical mechanical assets.
- Support development of maintenance strategies, job plans, spare-parts requirements, and equipment standards.
- Monitor key mechanical reliability and maintenance performance indicators.
- Support feasibility studies, capital projects, plant upgrades, and expansion projects from concept through commissioning.
- Develop technical scopes and specifications for mechanical equipment and engineering services.
- Review contractor and vendor proposals and provide technical recommendations.
- Participate in design reviews, constructability reviews, factory acceptance testing, site acceptance testing, and commissioning activities.
- Ensure engineering solutions consider safety, maintainability, lifecycle cost, operability, and production requirements.
We can omit the final sentence "The above duties and responsibilities represent the nature and level of work assigned and are not necessarily all-inclusive." as it's generic; but it's substantive? It's a disclaimer. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not exactly boilerplate but it's a generic statement. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. This sentence is substantive but maybe considered filler? It's not placeholder like "commensurate with experience". It's a statement about the list. I'd keep it as a list item? It's not a duty. Could be a separate
after the list. But the instruction says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. This sentence is not a duty; it's a note. Could be placed as a
after the list. We'll include it as a
after the list.
Now Education And Experience block:
"Education And Experience Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related engineering discipline.Professional engineering registration or eligibility for registration is preferred and may be required depending on jurisdiction and role responsibilities.5+ years of mechanical engineering experience, preferably within mining, minerals processing, heavy industry, mineral processing, or a similar asset-intensive environment.Demonstrated experience supporting fixed-plant mechanical equipment and industrial processing systems.Experience with equipment such as crushers, conveyors, screens, pumps, mills, feeders, gearboxes, and material handling systems.Strong understanding of mechanical equipment reliability, maintenance practices, failure analysis, and asset management.Experience developing engineering scopes, specifications, calculations, reports, and technical recommendations.Experience supporting capital projects, equipment upgrades, or plant modifications.Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot complex mechanical problems and develop practical solutions.Experience working in an operational environment with a strong focus on safety and production."
We need to split into list items. Each sentence separated by period but again no spaces. We'll split:
- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related engineering discipline.
- Professional engineering registration or eligibility for registration is preferred and may be required depending on jurisdiction and role responsibilities.
- 5+ years of mechanical engineering experience, preferably within mining, minerals processing, heavy industry, mineral processing, or a similar asset-intensive environment.
- Demonstrated experience supporting fixed-plant mechanical equipment and industrial processing systems.

- Experience supporting capital projects, equipment upgrades, or plant modifications.
- Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot complex mechanical problems and develop practical solutions.
- Experience working in an operational environment with a strong focus on safety and production.
We should keep all.
Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown.
Thus final output:
About Jerritt Canyon
The Jerritt Canyon deposit
for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include About Jerritt Canyon description as prose (
