Contribute to system validation, testing, and long-term maintenance

Monitor technology evolution and promote reusable solutions and standardization

Ensure application of internal processes and contribute to continuous improvement

You’ll work with multidisciplinary, international teams across engineering and product development - solving complex challenges in rail security and digital systems.
