Daniel Alksnis is a Mining Systems Engineer with 11 years of experience who drives digital transformation for Glencore’s Raglan nickel operation, blending software development, hardware integration, and field deployment of telemetry across a 200+ vehicle underground fleet. He builds lean, client-facing tools and dashboards that integrate mining-critical systems—delivering solutions such as a fleet management platform, a resilient underground positioning system, and data feeds for ventilation-on-demand. Equally comfortable in the cloud and the mine, he has designed microservice architectures, Dockerized deployments, and GIS-driven visualizations in prior roles, bringing full-stack engineering discipline to operational challenges. Daniel’s background in mineral engineering and hands-on field leadership informs pragmatic, measurable improvements in planning, monitoring, and safety—often by turning messy operational data into intuitive decision interfaces. A practical innovator, he pairs rapid prototyping with thorough documentation and training to ensure technologies stick in production environments.
