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, more than 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 PrEM Group Manager in Toronto, ON we’re looking for?

Your future role

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

You’ll play a central role in reducing the carbon footprint of Canada’s busiest public transit system by ensuring the successful delivery of technical solutions for the On-Corridor Works project. Day-to-day, you’ll work closely with teams across the business (System Deployment & Integration Manager, Corridor Sub-System Manager, and other engineering teams), manage the technical contractual scope of the project, and oversee system integration and deployment activities, and much more.

You’ll specifically take care of system architecture and design, as well as interface management between sub-systems and third parties, but also lead activities related to certification, validation, and configuration management.

We’ll look to you for:

• Managing the technical contractual scope of the project in collaboration with the customer
• Ensuring project performance and customer acceptance of the solution
• Leading the Project Engineering Management department, providing guidance and consistency
• Leading the project solution deployment and coordinating system activities
• Defining and implementing the Engineering Strategy
• Managing project technical risks and mitigation plans
• Supporting technical documentation and ensuring compliance with project requirements

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 Engineering, Computer Science, or related scientific fields
• P. Eng certification preferred
• Experience in project deployment across the full lifecycle, including commissioning
• At least 8 years of experience working on signaling projects in a technical capacity
• Hands‑on experience in functional or hierarchical team management
• Cost and planning control experience in engineering scope
• Customer relationship management experience, particularly in contractual settings
• Knowledge of products and services in various market segments (Urban, Mainline) is a plus
• Background in safety and engineering product development lifecycle is desirable
• Strong communication, interpersonal, decision‑making, and problem‑solving skills
• Analytical thinking and resilience

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 supportive colleagues
• Contribute to innovative projects
• Utilise our inclusive and dynamic 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 specialized technical roles
• Benefit from a fair and dynamic reward package that recognises your performance and potential, plus comprehensive and competitive social coverage (life, medical, pension)

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!
