Rolling Stock Engineer
We are seeking a Rolling Stock Engineer to support the safe, reliable and efficient performance of a modern rail vehicle fleet. You will provide technical expertise across the engineering lifecycle, including maintenance, fault investigation, modification, reliability improvement and fleet introduction activities. Working closely with operations, maintenance teams, suppliers and other engineering disciplines, you will help ensure that rolling stock meets required safety, performance, availability and regulatory standards.
Your responsibilities will include analysing fleet performance and recurring failures, identifying root causes and developing practical corrective actions. You will review technical documentation, maintenance instructions, engineering change proposals and supplier submissions, ensuring that designs and processes are robust, compliant and cost-effective. You will also support incident and defect investigations, manage technical risks, contribute to assurance activities and provide clear engineering reports and recommendations to stakeholders. The role may involve site, depot and workshop visits, as well as occasional travel to support trials, inspections or project delivery.
Applicants should have a degree, HNC/HND or equivalent qualification in mechanical, electrical, rail or systems engineering, together with relevant experience in rolling stock, rail vehicle maintenance or a comparable safety-critical engineering environment. You will need a sound understanding of railway engineering principles, configuration management, reliability and maintainability, and applicable safety and regulatory requirements. Strong analytical, problem-solving and communication skills are essential, along with the ability to manage priorities and work collaboratively across technical and non-technical teams. Experience with engineering assurance, vehicle systems, condition monitoring, data analysis or structured fault-finding would be advantageous. A proactive approach, attention to detail and commitment to continuous improvement are expected.
