Signaling Engineer – Lead – High Speed Train
We are seeking an experienced Signaling Engineer to lead the development, integration, and delivery of signaling systems for a high-speed rail program. In this senior technical role, you will provide engineering leadership across the full signaling lifecycle, from requirements definition and system design through verification, validation, commissioning, and operational handover. You will work closely with multidisciplinary teams covering rolling stock, railway operations, telecommunications, track, power, and control systems to ensure safe, reliable, and compliant project outcomes.
Your responsibilities will include defining and managing signaling requirements; reviewing system architectures, interface specifications, and technical solutions; and leading the preparation and approval of engineering documentation. You will coordinate design reviews, hazard assessments, safety activities, testing strategies, and configuration management. The role will involve overseeing the integration of train control, interlocking, automatic train protection, traffic management, level crossing, and train detection systems, as applicable to the project. You will also support factory acceptance testing, site testing, dynamic testing, trial operations, and fault investigation, ensuring that technical issues are assessed and resolved efficiently. As the technical lead, you will provide guidance to engineers and suppliers, monitor engineering progress, manage technical risks, and communicate clearly with project stakeholders.
Applicants should have a degree or equivalent qualification in railway engineering, electrical engineering, control systems, electronics, or a related discipline, together with substantial experience in railway signaling and high-speed or mainline rail projects. Strong knowledge of signaling principles, railway safety standards, systems engineering, and verification and validation processes is essential. Experience with interlocking, ETCS or comparable train protection technologies, traffic management systems, and interface management will be highly valued. You should be confident leading technical teams, coordinating contractors and suppliers, and making sound engineering decisions in complex project environments. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, a structured approach to problem-solving, and a commitment to safety, quality, and continuous improvement are required. The role may involve travel to project, manufacturing, and testing locations.
