Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your engineering and project management expertise in a new cutting-edge field. You’ll work alongside innovative, dedicated, and solution-oriented teammates.

We’ll look to you for:

• Ensuring 100% compliance with EHS rules, especially regarding activities on TrainLab and TestBench

• Preparation of the laboratory before the reception of test means

• Development and integration of specific models for testing

• Transversal management of input suppliers for timely configuration preparation

• Control of test configurations against applicable standards

• Planning and maintenance of TrainLab operations

• Effective management of the TrainLab Work Package

• Degree in Engineering or Master of Science (Engineering, Physical Sciences, or related fields)

• Experience or understanding of validation means (Testbench, simulators, etc.)

• Knowledge of software integration and validation phases

• Familiarity with railway, health, defence, aeronautical, or automotive domains

• Competency in managing work packages for sub-contractors

• Proficiency in English and understanding of DFQ cycle

• Autonomy and a rigorous approach to complex tasks
