From high-speed trains, metros, monorails, and trams, to turnkey systems, services, infrastructure, signalling and digital mobility, we offer our diverse customers the broadest portfolio in the industry. Every day, more than 80 000 colleagues lead the way to greener and smarter mobility worldwide, connecting cities as we reduce carbon and replace cars.
Could you be the full-time Brake System Engineer – Service Engineering in Villeneuve or Zurich, Switzerland we’re looking for?
Your future role
Take on a new challenge and apply your Design For Quality (DFQ) expertise in a cutting-edge field. You’ll work alongside collaborative, innovative, and passionate teammates.
You'll play a key role in ensuring that braking systems meet the highest standards in terms of safety, reliability, maintainability, and performance across modernization and service projects. Day-to-day, you’ll work closely with teams across the business (such as TCMS, bogies, traction, and safety systems), contribute to technical offers for modernization and service projects, and much more.
You’ll specifically take care of defining and executing validation and test strategies (including lab, static, and dynamic tests), but also support on-site commissioning and troubleshooting activities.
We’ll look to you for:
Leading DFQ lifecycle activities for braking systems, including requirements capture, system architecture, detailed design, verification, and validation
Contributing to bid and tender phases by defining braking system solutions adapted to customer requirements and performing technical assessments
Developing and validating brake system concepts and architectures while ensuring compliance with railway and Alstom standards
Managing interfaces with other subsystems
Supporting in-service fleet issues and contributing to root cause analysis and continuous improvement actions
Providing expertise to optimize performance and reliability of braking systems
All about you
We value passion and attitude over experience. That’s why we don’t expect you to have every single skill. Instead, we’ve listed some that we think will help you succeed and grow in this role:
Engineering degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Railway Engineering
Proven experience in brake systems engineering or related railway subsystems
Strong expertise in Design For Quality (DFQ) processes across the full lifecycle
Knowledge of railway braking systems (pneumatic, electro-pneumatic, dynamic braking) and relevant standards (EN, UIC, safety regulations)
Experience in bid phase, system design, validation, and commissioning
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
Ability to work effectively in a multi-disciplinary and international environment
Fluency in English; proficiency in French and/or German is required
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 new safety and performance standards for railway braking systems
Collaborate with transverse teams and helpful colleagues
Contribute to innovative modernization and service projects
Utilise our inclusive and flexible working environment
Steer your career in whatever direction you choose across functions and countries
Benefit from our investment in your development, through award-winning learning
Progress towards senior engineering or project leadership roles
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!
