About Ken_At_EM
Precisely boring holes into the Earth (or other planets!) is critical to humanities survival and expansion. We make hardware and software tools that allow for precise real-time control of borehole construction.
Our tools are used in the Oil and Gas, Geothermal, Plug and Abandonment, and Horizontal Directional Drilling Industries.
We're always hiring: https://www.erdosmiller.com/careers
