Uranium mining and nuclear fuel production with integrated fuel-cycle assets
Cameco operates one of the world's largest uranium mining portfolios backed by high-grade reserves in northern Saskatchewan, plus downstream ownership stakes in enrichment and reactor technology. The tech stack—BigQuery, SAP S/4HANA, OSI PI, Apache Airflow, and Looker—reveals a company mid-transition into cloud analytics and real-time operational monitoring, with engineering and mid-level hiring accelerating across mining and data roles. Active projects focus on operational dashboards, equipment reliability, and lab process improvement, while pain points center on safety compliance, equipment downtime, and monthly close reconciliation.
