From Terra AI's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Terra AI is building a new category at the intersection of artificial intelligence, geoscience, and critical resource development.
As global demand for copper, lithium, nickel, rare earth elements, geothermal energy, and other strategic resources accelerates, the mining and subsurface industries face a growing challenge: traditional exploration methods remain slow, expensive, and highly uncertain. Terra AI was founded to help solve this problem by redefining how critical resources are discovered, evaluated, and developed.
By combining advanced machine learning, probabilistic modeling, and deep geoscience expertise, Terra AI helps exploration and mining companies make faster, more informed subsurface decisions with greater confidence and capital efficiency. The company’s platform integrates geological, geophysical, and drilling data into intelligent systems designed to improve targeting accuracy, accelerate discovery timelines, and reduce exploration risk.
Backed by Khosla Ventures, BHP, and Rio Tinto, Terra AI works with industry leaders to bring a more informed, data-driven approach to critical resource development.
Terra AI’s mission is to define the new global standard for data-driven critical resource development — breaking the cost and time curve required to support electrification, energy security, and the global energy transition.
The company operates with a strong partnership mentality, combining technical rigor, candid communication, continual learning, and environmental stewardship to help modern exploration teams solve some of the world’s most important resource challenges.
Who you are
You don’t need to be a geoscientist, but you’re curious about the subsurface and excited by the prospect of combining differentiated technical intelligence with disciplined investing.
You’re an investor and a builder. You know how capital moves through the natural resources industry, what makes an opportunity investable, and how to earn the trust of the people who provide it. You’ve raised capital, evaluated investments, and helped turn conviction into transactions—not just advised from the sidelines.
You’re equally comfortable developing an investment thesis and getting into the details of a deal. You can assess risk, structure an investment, challenge assumptions in a financial model, and explain a complicated opportunity clearly to an investment committee or prospective capital partner.
Mining, critical minerals, energy, and other real-asset markets interest you because you understand both their potential and their complexity.
Most importantly, you want to build. You’re energized by the opportunity to help create an investment platform rather than inherit an established fund, and you bring the relationships, judgment, and hands-on approach to make that ambition credible.
