Railway System Interface Manager

A. System Interface Management - Managing railway system scenarios, requirements, system architecture, related with the interaction between subsystems (rolling stock, signaling, tracks, power supply). - Selecting appropriate technologies and configurations for new rail projects. -Manage the interface development by the subsystems and coordinating the process of verification and validation of all interfaces during the life cycle of the project up to interface final successful closure. - Manage the correct interface of the system with all the external stakeholders, ensuring the correct finalization of all the applicable authorization processes. B. System Integration - Ensuring interoperability between different railway subsystems, interfaces between rolling stock, signaling, and infrastructure. - Validating system compatibility across national and international requirements and standards (e.g., EN, NFPA, ...). - Ensuring the subsystem are correctly integrated to allow the validation of performance and functionalities for all foreseen scenarios for the railway system. C. Verification & Validation - Allowing integration testing validation by ensuring railway systems adhere to the performance and characteristics required by the project requirements, standards, laws, … - Defining and monitoring the execution of the V&V plan for what concern the interfaces D. Lifecycle Management - Managing railway system upgrades and modernization projects. - Supporting asset management and maintenance planning to maximize system longevity. E. Digitalization & Smart Rail Technologies - Implementing IoT, AI, and Big Data solutions for predictive maintenance and automation. - Working with Digital Twin, Remote Monitoring, and Smart Signaling technologies. Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering or Mechanical Engineering Qualifications - Minimum of 15 years of experience in system engineering for railway systems, with strong proficiency in interface management - Experience in focusing on sustainability in Railway systems and infrastructure design, construction, and operation. - Rolling Stock (Locomotives, EMUs, DMUs, High-Speed Trains) - Signaling Systems (ETCS, CBTC, PTC, Interlocking) - Electrification (25kV AC, 750V DC, 3kV DC systems) - Track Infrastructure (Standard gauge, High-Speed Rail, Light Rail, Metro) - Interface management between hardware, software, and infrastructure. - Managing mixed traffic operations (High-speed, freight, commuter trains). - CENELEC Standards: EN 50126 (RAMS), EN 50128 (Software), EN 50129 (Safety) - ETCS/ERTMS (European Train Control System) - IEC 62290 (Urban Rail Control Systems) - UIC, AAR, and FRA Regulations (for different railway regions) - Systems Engineering: DOORS, Enterprise Architect - Failure & Safety Analysis: ReliaSoft, FMECA, FTA Tools - Electrical & Mechanical Design: MATLAB, Simulink, CATIA Project Management & Lifecycle Management: - Working with V-Model, Agile, or Waterfall methodologies. - Managing large-scale railway system deployment projects.
