Could you be the full-time System Train Control Engineer in Saint-Ouen (near Paris) we’re looking for?

Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your systems engineering expertise in a cutting-edge field. You’ll work alongside collaborative and rigorous teammates and play a key role in designing and integrating a critical subsystem in the field of train control, contributing directly to the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of mobility solutions.

You'll ensure the seamless integration of subsystems into our trains, making a direct impact on the quality and reliability of our solutions. Day-to-day, you’ll work closely with multidisciplinary teams such as Train System Engineers (TSE), interior engineers, RAMS and validation engineers, and train control teams. You’ll also manage relationships with internal partners like ADM/T&P and external suppliers for electronic solutions.

You’ll specifically take care of defining the architecture and functionalities of subsystems (e.g., PACIS, CCTV, multimedia, event recorders, ground-to-train communication, ATC safety equipment) and their integration into the train, while ensuring compliance with functional and performance requirements.

We’ll look to you for:

• 
  

  Providing technical documentation for the subsystem, including requirement and architecture specifications (RSAD), technical purchasing specifications (TPS), and interface control documents (ICD).

  
  


• 
  

  Defining and implementing functional, performance, and cross-functional requirements for the dedicated subsystem.

  
  


• 
  

  Ensuring the mechanical and electrical integration of the subsystem into the train by defining the necessary interfaces.

  
  


• 
  

  Validating the subsystem’s performance at the train level, including design reviews.

  
  


• 
  

  Managing configuration and change processes related to the subsystem.

  
  


• 
  

  Analyzing the impact of modifications and ensuring rigorous control of design changes.

  
  


• 
  

  Planning and monitoring all subsystem-related activities, adhering to deadlines and quality requirements.

  
  


• 
  

  Collaborating with engineering, validation, sourcing teams, suppliers, and production units.
