Join our dynamic team in Munich as a Railway Verification and Validation Senior Engineer. In this role, you will have the opportunity to work on cutting-edge projects and enjoy a variety of responsibilities.
In this critical role, you'll ensure the reliability and safety of European Train Control System (ETCS) implementations, actively collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to validate complex signalling solutions. Make sure to delivery of system and subsystem Signalling solution in compliance with Signalling system and subsystem requirements, and in accordance with quality, project schedule and budget.
Affirm delivery of project V&V documents at Signalling system and subsystem level in cooperation with the other RAMS functions, Engineering, Operation & Maintenance and external suppliers.
Support V&V activities through participation to projects, bidding and delivery phases: Support that subsystems suppliers provide V&V evidence.
Assure the proper level of independence in the definition and implementation of the Signalling system and subsystem V&V activities in compliance with applicable standards and SILs.

Electrical, Electronic, or Computer Engineering or Information Technology Qualifications/ University Degree or Equivalent Technical Background.
~Very good knowledge of German (C1) and English (C1).
~ Hands-on experience with railway safety-critical systems testing and validation, specifically ETCS onboard and trackside subsystems.
~ Hardware-in-the-Loop, Software-in-the-Loop simulators).
~ ETCS Architecture & Levels: Familiarity with ETCS Levels (Level NTC, 1, 2, and 3), on-board and track-side equipment (e.g., ETCS On-Board Unit, Radio Block Center (RBC), Balises).
Solid understanding of ERTMS/ETCS standards and technical documentation (e.g., Leadership qualities to mentor junior engineers and drive validation activities.
Knowledge of software development lifecycle models (V-model, Agile).
Understanding of how ETCS subsystems interface with other railway or signalling components (e.g., Software Lifecycle (V-Model): Familiarity with the V-Model or similar software development lifecycles, particularly in safety-critical contexts.
Programming & Scripting (Desirable): Skills in languages like C, C++, Python, or MATLAB/Simulink for prototyping, simulations, or automated testing can be valuable.
