2–6 years of experience in test and commissioning of railway systems, preferably with exposure to trackside signalling equipment.
Hands‑on experience with CBTC, interlocking, or ATP/ATO/ATS systems will be a strong advantage.
Knowledge of railway standards and safety practices (e.g., CENELEC, IEC, EN 50126/8/9).
Familiar with test tools, measurement instruments, and diagnostic software used in rail systems testing.
Strong analytical, problem‑solving, and documentation skills.
Able to work in a site‑based environment, including during night shifts or track possessions as required.
Excellent teamwork, communication, and stakeholder coordination skills.
Candidates with prior experience in LTA rail projects (e.g., JRL, DTSS, TEL, CCL, or CRL) will have an advantage.
Flexibility to perform night works including weekend and public holidays when required by the project.
