Your future role

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

You’ll play a key role in ensuring that our railway signaling projects are fully verified, validated, and integrated, meeting both Alstom's core technical processes and the project’s contractual requirements. Day-to-day, you’ll work closely with teams across the business (such as sub-systems validation teams, ICC V&V Managers, and external stakeholders), design overall test plans and scenarios, and much more.

You’ll specifically take care of preparing and performing test sessions, as well as managing V&V work products under configuration management, but also support defect investigations and site tests when applicable.

• Designing overall tests, including test plans, test cases, objectives, scenarios, and steps, incorporating realistic customer and operational contexts.
• Preparing for test sessions, including aligning impact analysis reports and scheduling validation meetings.
• Performing test sessions, running test procedures, and producing detailed test reports and associated change requests.
• Participating in customer acceptance tests and site tests, if applicable.
• Specifying, designing, developing, and validating test environments and tools.
• Supporting defect investigations detected in factory or site environments.
• Estimating V&V workload to support overall project schedules.
• Ensuring test traceability versus requirements according to the Requirements Management Plan.
• Providing support to sub-systems validation teams during execution.

All about you

• Bachelor Degree in Engineering or a related technical discipline.
• At least 10 years of experience working with signaling in areas such as V&V, Design, or Application.
• Experience or understanding of Integrated Control Center (ATS, SCADA, Security), Interlocking, PTC, CBTC, or Cybersecurity.
• Knowledge of test environment and tool design.
• Familiarity with configuration and requirements management processes.
• Strong leadership and communication skills to interact with internal and external stakeholders.
• Ability to communicate in French is an asset.

Things you’ll enjoy

• 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 inclusive and flexible 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 leadership or technical expert roles.
• Benefit from a fair and dynamic reward package that recognises your performance and potential, plus comprehensive and competitive social coverage (life, medical, pension).
