Signaling Design Specialist - Senior

• Key Accountabilities:
• TECHNICAL
• Converts Customer (internal and/or external) requirements into conceptual designs and prepares associated documentation by performing operational analyses, simulations and technical trade-off studies evaluating alternative design configurations and functional features.
• Similarly creates new concepts or modifies existing concepts to fulfil customer requirements.
• Performs technical/engineering tasks to define, application databases for software subsystems. Analysis and simulations are performed as necessary to identify design feasibility & driving requirements.
• Prepares specialised signalling design skills, covering one or more of the following:
• Signalling Principles;
• Block design;
• Interlocking control tables;
• Safe braking model;
• Performance analysis and Headway simulations;
• Application database design;
• Prepares and supports bids and proposals, including customer requirements compliance assessment, gap analysis, architecture design, simulation, trade-off of key features, estimation, etc.
• Presents technical design and reports to customers and/or other engineering/management groups in clear, complete, concise and non-ambiguous terms.
• Defines or proposes updates of processes and standards covering the work and its products based on the knowledge of systems engineering and/or his technical speciality.
• Operational design limits are evaluated and defined; performance analyses and simulations are developed & performed to support the above.
• Ensure the signalling design is implemented in accordance with applicable standards and signaling principles.
• Interface and build strong working relationships with Software, Hardware and IVVQ groups to ensure timely analysis and resolution of in-house and field test issue.

• Supervises contractors and other systems specialists, by defining their work, coaching them on how and what to prepare, monitoring their progress and directing them on priorities.
• Proposes work package estimates and descriptions based on the knowledge of the work and project requirements.
• Prepare and deliver regular status reports for internal and external stakeholders
• Identify and implement process improvement initiatives
• Safety:
• Promote a safety culture where product safety is paramount
• Ensure that safety is built into the design by early identification and resolution of safety related defects

• University degree in Computer sciences, Engineering or a closely related field.
