Design Engineer Signalling

Responsibilities

• Develop
  detailed technical designs for railway signalling systems, including
  trackside equipment, interlockings, train control systems, and
  communication interfaces.
  
• Ensure all designs comply with
  relevant railway standards (e.g., EN 50128, IEC 61508, CENELEC, and
  national railway regulations).
  
• Utilize AutoCAD and other CAD tools to produce accurate and scalable engineering drawings and schematics.
  
• Conduct
  design reviews and coordinate with internal and external stakeholders
  to validate technical feasibility and safety integrity.
  
• Maintain comprehensive documentation of design specifications, revisions, and compliance evidence.
  
• Collaborate with systems and safety engineers to perform hazard analyses, risk assessments, and safety case development.
  
• Support project execution by providing technical input during procurement, installation, testing, and commissioning phases.
  
• Stay current with advancements in railway signalling technologies, including ETCS, CBTC, and digital interlocking systems.
  
• Participate in design audits, regulatory inspections, and certification processes.
  

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Railway Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
  
• Minimum
  of 4 years of hands -on experience in railway signalling design,
  preferably within a rail infrastructure or rolling stock environment.
  
• Proficiency in AutoCAD (and experience with AutoCAD Civil 3D or similar CAD platforms).
  
• Strong
  understanding of railway signalling principles, including interlocking
  logic, track circuits, signal aspects, and train detection systems.
  
• Demonstrated
  awareness of safety standards and compliance frameworks (e.g.,
  Functional Safety, SIL ratings, risk assessment methodologies).
  
• Ability to interpret and apply technical standards such as EN 50128, EN 50129, and national railway safety codes.
  
• Excellent analytical, problem -solving, and documentation skills.
  
• Strong communication and collaboration abilities with multidisciplinary teams and regulatory bodies.
  
• Willingness to travel to project sites for site surveys, commissioning support, and stakeholder meetings.
