More than a job: a mission
We’re looking for a Bid Technical Manager (ONB) to lead the technical strategy and engineering coordination of onboard signalling tenders.

• Manage technical interfaces with customers and conduct technical clarification meetings
• Assess technical risks and ensure mitigation plans are aligned with engineering teams and platforms
• Establish engineering commitments related to quality, cost, delivery, planning, and risk management
• Prepare and validate technical documentation and engineering assumptions for tender submissions
You’ll work with sharp, committed teams across engineering, project management and bid management - solving complex challenges that shape the future of mobility.
What you bring
• Engineering degree or equivalent technical background
• 3-5 years of experience in signalling projects
• Project management experience or strong leadership capabilities
• Experience working with cross-functional and multidisciplinary teams
• Rail industry experience is highly valued
• Fluent English communication skills
