Job description

At Alstom, we understand transport networks and what moves people. From high-speed trains, metros, monorails, and trams, to turnkey systems, services, infrastructure, signalling and digital mobility, we offer our diverse customers the broadest portfolio in the industry. Every day, 80,000 colleagues lead the way to greener and smarter mobility worldwide, connecting cities as we reduce carbon and replace cars.

Could you be the full-time onsite Process Engineer (Fitting Lead) in Saint-Bruno, QC, CA we’re looking for?

Your future role

"Take on a new challenge and apply your manufacturing and process engineering expertise in a new cutting-edge field. You’ll work alongside motivated and detail-oriented teammates.
You'll play a critical role in defining and optimizing manufacturing processes and equipment for electrical integration production, ensuring alignment with lean manufacturing principles, Alstom industrial policies, and project constraints. Day-to-day, you’ll work closely with teams across the business (Engineering, Design, and Quality Assurance), collaborate on concurrent engineering activities, and contribute to process improvements and risk mitigation strategies, and much more."

We’ll look to you for:

• Guaranteeing that industrial requirements align with customer demands and return of experience.
• Ensuring industrial requirements are cascaded, understood, and respected by relevant stakeholders during fitting design activities.
• Verifying consistency and tracking the evolution of digital mock-up decomposition, structure, and storing (PBS, SBS, EBoM) in alignment with industrial strategies.
• Monitoring and validating allocated volumes, interfaces, and attributes of sub-system installations and components in digital mock-ups to meet industrial needs.
• Ensuring dimensional requirements and stack-up analyses align with positioning strategies, datum plans, and manufacturing capabilities.
• Validating supplier and subcontractor quality of inputs and outputs to meet industrial requirements, strategies, and QCD targets.
• Developing macro-processes, assembly sequences, and positioning strategies for fitting manufacturing activities.
• Managing industrial risks using criticality assessments, process FMEAs, ergonomics analysis, and "design for manufacturing" analyses.
• Identifying manufacturing equipment/tooling needs, supporting the introduction of new technologies, and validating associated plans.
• Producing and tracking technical and non-technical industrial documents using various software tools and applying revision tracking processes.

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:

• Degree in mechanical engineering or equivalent.
• Experience or understanding of process and/or manufacturing engineering in electrical (cubicles/harnesses) manufacturing, crimping process, or tolerancing engineering.
• Knowledge of industry standards in a railway environment (e.g., health and safety, ergonomics, quality, lean manufacturing).
• Familiarity with industrial processes and analysis tools/methodologies (e.g., FMEA, QRQC, MTM, line balance).
• Excellent communication skills in French & English.
• Excellent Microsoft Office skills (Excel, PowerPoint) and strong presentation abilities.
• Familiarity with modeling software (e.g., CATIA, AutoCAD).
• Management and leadership skills to motivate counterparts and lead by example.
• Planning and organizational skills to prioritize workloads effectively.
• Flexible and adaptable mindset to respond proactively to unexpected challenges.

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:

• Collaborate with transverse teams and helpful colleagues.
• Work with innovative manufacturing processes and cutting-edge technologies in rolling stock production.
• Progress towards becoming a key contributor to the development and optimization of carbody shell manufacturing.
• Utilise our dynamic and inclusive working environment that fosters leadership, resilience, and continuous learning.
• Contribute to innovative projects.
• Steer your career in whatever direction you choose across functions and countries.
