quality, cost, and schedule. You will establish, maintain, and audit the
technical management system, drive continuous improvement, and coordinate design
assurance across all engineering disciplines and delivery partners.

  risk assessment, and approvals.
- Lead multidisciplinary design reviews (track, civil, structures, geotechnical,
  systems, OLE, power, signaling/telecoms, rolling stock interface, stations,
  MEP, RAMS) to assure completeness, consistency, constructability, operability,
  and maintainability.
- Drive requirements management, verification and validation (V&V), and
  configuration control, ensuring traceability from system requirements to
  design outputs and test evidence.
- Coordinate technical interfaces and integration across packages, contractors,
  suppliers, and operations/maintenance stakeholders.
- Ensure compliance with safety legislation and rail-specific safety management
  frameworks (e.g., CSM-RA or equivalent), including hazard identification, risk
- Act as the principal point of contact for technical standards with the client,
  independent validators, authorities, and certification bodies.
- Prepare and present technical review findings, design assurance reports,
  technical risk registers, and recommendations to governance boards.
- Facilitate cross-functional workshops to resolve complex technical issues and
  drive decision-making.

## Profile/Skills

- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, Systems, or
  related). Master’s degree preferred.
- Minimum 15 years of engineering experience, including substantial experience
  on railway projects (mainline, metro, light rail, or high-speed).
- Strong design background with demonstrated leadership in multidisciplinary
  design development and review.
- Proven track record establishing and managing technical standards, design
  assurance, and engineering processes on large infrastructure programs.
- Experience with requirements management tools and configuration control;
  familiarity with systems engineering V-model and V&V.
- Demonstrable knowledge of relevant rail standards and codes (e.g., EN/IEC
  standards, AREMA/BS/EN, local rail authority standards) and safety/regulatory
  frameworks (e.g., CSM-RA or equivalent).
- Experience coordinating with independent safety assessors/validators,
  regulators, and client technical authorities.
- Excellent communication, stakeholder engagement, and report-writing skills.
- Chartered or Professional Engineer status (e.g., CEng, PE, RPEQ) or
  equivalent.
- Experience in RAMS, human factors, and operability/maintainability reviews.
- Competence with common rail systems and design tools; exposure to BIM and
  digital engineering for assurance and information management.
- Rigorous attention to detail with a pragmatic, delivery-focused mindset.
