LIM & Power Rail Field Engineering Specialist
We are seeking a LIM & Power Rail Field Engineering Specialist to support the installation, testing, commissioning, maintenance and fault diagnosis of linear induction motor (LIM) and power rail systems. Working across operational and project environments, you will provide specialist engineering expertise to ensure equipment is safe, reliable, compliant and fit for service. The role will involve regular site and depot work, collaboration with engineering, operations, maintenance and project teams, and occasional travel to support field activities.
Your responsibilities will include conducting inspections, surveys and condition assessments; reviewing technical drawings, specifications and work packages; supporting installation and modification activities; and carrying out testing, commissioning and acceptance activities for LIM propulsion and power rail assets. You will investigate defects and failures, identify root causes, recommend corrective actions and produce clear technical reports. You will also support maintenance planning, risk assessments, method statements, technical reviews and the development of standards, procedures and maintenance documentation. Where required, you will provide guidance to contractors and field teams, monitor work quality, and ensure activities comply with approved designs, safety requirements and applicable rail standards.
Applicants should have proven experience in rail systems, electrical engineering, traction power, power distribution or a closely related field, with practical knowledge of power rail equipment and/or linear motor propulsion systems. A relevant technical qualification or engineering degree is desirable, along with experience in testing, commissioning, fault finding and interpreting electrical schematics and engineering documentation. You will need strong analytical and problem-solving skills, sound safety awareness, and the ability to make effective decisions in the field. Excellent communication and report-writing skills are essential, as is the ability to work independently and contribute positively within multidisciplinary teams. The successful candidate must be willing to work flexibly, including occasional night, weekend or possession-based activities, and meet any required site access, medical and safety certification standards.
