• Degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Rail Engineering, or System Analysis

• Understanding of programming logic

• Knowledge of Python, C++, or VB

• Familiarity with Windows Server, Linux, Unix (desirable)

• Proficiency in MS Office suite (Excel, Word, etc.)

• Experience with SQL Server

• Effective decision-making and a sense of urgency

Things you’ll enjoy

Join us on a life-long transformative journey – the rail industry is here to stay, so you can grow and develop new skills and experiences throughout your career. You’ll also:

• Enjoy stability, challenges and a long-term career free from boring daily routines

• Work with cutting-edge signalling technology

• Benefit from a fair and dynamic reward package that recognises your performance and potential, plus comprehensive and competitive social coverage (life, medical, pension)

You don’t need to be a train enthusiast to thrive with us. We guarantee that when you step onto one of our trains with your friends or family, you’ll be proud. If you’re up for the challenge, we’d love to hear from you!
