مشغل ماكينة حفر الأنفاق (TBM)

The Boring Company was founded to solve the problem of soul-destroying traffic by creating an underground network of tunnels. Today, we are creating the technology to increase tunneling speed and decrease costs by a factor of 10 or more, enabling rapid transit across densely populated regions.

We're looking for an experienced TBM Operator to drive and monitor Prufrock on the Dubai Loop. Working from the launch site and control room — in close coordination with our Operations Center — you'll own machine performance on your shift: advance rate, steering, face stability, and the continuous lining installation that sets Prufrock apart. You'll work hand-in-hand with miners, mechanics, electricians, and field engineers to keep every shift on-line, on-grade, and on schedule, as part of the founding field team on one of the most high-profile tunneling projects in the world.
