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 System Lead in Bangalore we’re looking for?

Your future role

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

You’ll play a vital role in delivering on-time system design baselines with the desired scope and quality.

You’ll also engage with key stakeholders such as the Project Solution Architect, Verification Leader, System Engineer, and Design Leader to ensure seamless communication and interface.

You’ll specifically take care of delivering system design baselines (SyRS, SyAD, OCD, TMS) and ensuring high-quality design deliveries, but also manage internal activity plans and maintain on-time delivery with minimal or zero defects.

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:

• Minimum 5-10 years of experience in the rail signalling domain
• Experience in completing at least one design cycle for a signalling project
• Clear understanding of signal engineering processes
• Proficiency in designing interlocking schemes, aspect charts/bit charts, and signalling interface plans
• Ability to design and configure field devices for signalling layouts, including fouling points, overlaps, routes, stations, and zones
• Experience interfacing with subsystems such as IXL, ATC, and ATS
• Understanding of as-installed baseline integration
• Experience working on signalling specification documents and customer interfaces
• Activity planning and project technical design documentation experience
• Experience with system types such as ERTMS or CBTC, preferably in design
• System configuration and test procedure knowledge
• Proficiency in MS Office and CAD software
• Excellent English communication skills (reading, writing, and specification writing)
• Behavioral competencies: Agile, inclusive, responsible, quick learner, and strong communication skills

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:

• 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)
