Traction Engineering Skill Leader

Date: 8 Apr 2026

Company: Alstom

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 Traction Transformers Technical Expert in Bangalore we’re looking for?

Your future role

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

You’ll play a critical role in shaping the future of traction transformers at Alstom. Day-to-day, you’ll work closely with teams across the business (such as project management, tendering, and engineering teams), act as a technical referent across regions, and provide expert guidance during technical reviews and tenders.

You’ll specifically take care of consolidating and structuring knowledge within your domain of expertise, but also mentoring future experts, newcomers, and engineering teams to ensure knowledge transfer and development.

We’ll look to you for:

Providing a strategic vision for traction transformers and contributing to innovation roadmaps

Supporting global sites and projects upon request

Representing Alstom in technical conferences and influencing standards and regulatory forums

Developing and improving technical repositories, including Standard Solutions, SIPOC, and Design to Cost

Contributing training material and supporting Alstom Technical Academy initiatives

Participating actively in Core Networks and representing your site or region in internal and external forums

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 Electrical Engineering or a related field

Experience or understanding of traction transformers and their applications

Knowledge of industry standards and regulatory requirements

Familiarity with innovation processes and roadmaps

A certification in project management or a related discipline

Strong mentoring and leadership skills

Excellent communication and collaboration abilities

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 helpful colleagues

Contribute to innovative projects

Utilise our flexible and inclusive 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 roles such as Senior Technical Expert or Global Domain Leader

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!
