Company: Alstom

We create smart innovations to meet the mobility challenges of today and tomorrow. We design and manufacture a complete range of transportation systems, from high-speed trains to electric buses and driverless trains, as well as infrastructure, signalling, and digital mobility solutions. Joining us means joining a truly global community of more than 75,000 people dedicated to solving real-world mobility challenges and achieving international projects with sustainable local impact.

The Railway Dynamics Engineer will participate in project/offer development through the application of internal procedures, instructions, and guidelines of the domain and has to be operative on the following calculation activities:

1. Standard calculations with Multi-Body System (MBS) tools (SIMPACK, VAMPIRE), in tenders and projects
2. Complex MBS calculations requiring an interdisciplinary approach: flexible bodies, cross wind safety, drive line, active elements.
3. Analysis and interpretation of test results (indoor and on-track tests).
4. Research & Development under the coordination of the Core Competence Network.
