About the role

  • Serve as the subject matter expert for minerals and royalty evaluations, reserves, decline curve analysis (DCA), and type-curve workflows.
  • Help position SynMax minerals and reserves workflows as a trusted alternative to traditional decline-curve and economic modeling tools.
  • Lead technical discussions with prospects and customers, including demos, workflow design, and evaluation setup.
  • Create repeatable, easy-to-use template workflows and demo patterns that help both internal teams and customers get value quickly.
  • Partner closely with product and engineering teams to represent the voice of the customer and influence roadmap priorities.
  • Provide training, onboarding, and best practices for new users, focusing on scalable, systematic enablement rather than ad-hoc support.
  • Review forecasts, type curves, and reserves outputs to ensure technical accuracy and build customer confidence in results.
  • Build and refine standard evaluation setups that reflect how leading minerals and reserves teams work in practice.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in reservoir engineering or reserves evaluation, ideally with minerals/royalty exposure.
  • Hands-on experience with ComboCurve and/or ARIES.
  • Strong understanding of decline curve analysis, type curves, and economic evaluations for unconventional plays.
  • Ability to communicate complex technical concepts to both engineers and non-technical users.
  • Some familiarity with Python or willingness to learn enough to follow and support technical workflows.
  • Comfort and credibility in customer-facing conversations, especially in technical sales settings.
  • A systematic mindset for building scalable processes, not just one-off analyses.
