  • Lead trade studies and technical assessments to support design decisions and optimize system performance.
  • Manage requirements traceability and ensure verification and validation activities demonstrate compliance.
  • Coordinate technical risk assessments and develop mitigation strategies for system-level technical risks.
  • Support procurement activities by reviewing technical specifications and evaluating contractor proposals.
  • Provide technical guidance on operational concepts including degraded mode operations and emergency procedures.
  • Ensure technical solutions support the 1,435 mm gauge track, 100% low-floor LRV operations, and TSP functionality.
  • Mentor and develop systems engineering capabilities within the project team.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Systems, Electrical, Mechanical, or related discipline); Master's degree strongly preferred.
  • Minimum 12 years of progressive systems engineering experience in rail or transit projects with at least 5 years in leadership roles.
  • Expert knowledge of systems engineering principles, methodologies, and lifecycle processes.
  • Comprehensive understanding of LRT systems including rolling stock, signaling, traction power, and control systems.
  • Proven experience leading technical teams and managing complex multi-disciplinary engineering projects.
  • Strong requirements management skills with proficiency in tools such as DOORS or equivalent.
  • Experience with model-based systems engineering (MBSE) approaches and tools is an asset.
  • Excellent technical problem-solving abilities with strategic and analytical thinking skills.
  • Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) designation required.
  • INCOSE certification (CSEP or ASEP) is highly desirable.
  • Outstanding communication skills with ability to articulate complex technical concepts to diverse audiences.
