Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your system engineering expertise in a cutting-edge field. You’ll work alongside collaborative and innovative teammates.

You'll play a pivotal role in ensuring the development, integration, and performance optimization of signaling subsystems within the Rolling Stock & Components (RSC) division. Day-to-day, you’ll work closely with teams across the business (engineering, project management, and external stakeholders), lead the integration of signaling subsystems into rolling stock, and much more.

You’ll specifically take care of defining subsystem architecture and functionalities, but also ensuring compliance with industry standards and safety regulations.

We’ll look to you for:

• Developing comprehensive functional, performance, transverse, and train-level requirements for RSC signaling subsystems

• Leading the integration of signaling subsystems into rolling stock, addressing mechanical, electrical, and software components

• Specifying and documenting necessary interfaces to enable effective subsystem communication

• Conducting integration validation and participating in design reviews

• Implementing and managing change control processes for signaling subsystems

• Planning and coordinating engineering activities with internal and external stakeholders

• Proactively identifying and resolving potential issues to optimize subsystem performance

All about you

We value passion and attitude over experience. That’s why we don’t expect you to have every single skill. Instead, we’ve listed some that we think will help you succeed and grow in this role:

• Bachelor’s degree in an engineering discipline (Electrical, Mechanical, Software, or Systems Engineering preferred)

• A minimum of 3 years of experience in system engineering, ideally with a focus on signaling systems or the rail industry

• Familiarity with signaling standards, system integration techniques, and configuration management methodologies

• Bilingual fluency in French and English (spoken and written)

• Strong organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills

• Proactive mindset with demonstrated problem-solving abilities

• Adaptability to dynamic project environments

Things you’ll enjoy Join us on a life-long transformative journey – the rail industry is here to stay, so you can grow and develop new skills and experiences throughout your career. You’ll also:

• Enjoy stability, challenges, and a long-term career free from boring daily routines

• Work with new security standards for rail signalling

• Collaborate with transverse teams and helpful colleagues

• Contribute to innovative projects

• Utilise our hybrid working environment

• Steer your career in whatever direction you choose across functions and countries

• Benefit from our investment in your development, through award-winning learning

• Progress towards senior engineering roles or project leadership opportunities

• Benefit from a fair and dynamic reward package that recognises your performance and potential, plus comprehensive and competitive social coverage (life, medical, pension)

Bilingualism

Proficiency in French and English is required. Knowledge of a third language is considered an asset when working with our international partners, suppliers, colleagues, and customers. In Quebec, French remains the primary working language of our company.

You don’t need to be a train enthusiast to thrive with us. We guarantee that when you step onto one of our trains with your friends or family, you’ll be proud. If you’re up for the challenge, we’d love to hear from you!
