Integrated mining and metals producer scaling gold, phosphate, and copper across Saudi Arabia
Maaden is a large-scale, publicly-traded mining operator with 5,000–10,000 employees driving Saudi Arabia's industrial diversification away from oil. The tech stack reveals a traditional heavy-industry footprint—SAP, Oracle ERP, SCADA/DCS/PLC controls, ArcGIS, and Surpac mining planning software—paired with cloud infrastructure (Azure, Terraform, Pulumi) and modern data tooling (Python, Informatica, Power BI). Hiring is accelerating with 35 roles posted in the last 30 days, concentrated in engineering (31) and operations (12), signaling active operational expansion. Pain points cluster around SCADA integration, equipment availability, logistics bottlenecks, and compliance visibility—typical friction points in large, geographically distributed mining operations.
