At Alstom, we understand transport networks and what moves people. 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.

KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES:

• Supports the Configuration and Design Change Management of the Project for Services scope (whole scope if/when transferred by the Design team)
• Manages the technical performances of the systems and provide REX to relevant Services Product Line.
• Optimizes the scope and related tasks of the Maintenance plan.
• Supports cost reduction actions, in collaboration with Procurement and Industrial.
• Detects, defines and implements the modifications of the maintained products to improve the reliability and serviceability, in order to reduce project costs and improve the performances of the systems.
• Ensures the update of the technical documentation of the projects.
• Supports the Product Safety management system ensuring safety risks are mitigated in a timely manner.
• Manages Obsolescence Plan.
• Captures and ensures ownership of technical regulations and standards to be applied.
• Supports Certification processes for engineering changes (in relation with the Design Authority).
• Supports Indus team in developing the work instructions and processes from the maintenance plan and maintenance manuals.
• Supports Indus team in developing standardized tools/processes improving efficiency in maintenance activities.
• Analyses the technical performances of the systems and efficiency of maintenance plan and processes, promoting action plans to improve them.
• Manages the technical documentation within the system and any required interface with the MMS.
• Assures efficient parts codification in line with Product Line rules (after transfer from ISR team): materials identification, codification process, interfaces with Alstom systems, quality and normative requirements.
• Contributes to project monthly maintenance report (contractual reliability and availability targets)
• Sets-up and follows standardized and continuous fleet/systems reliability improvement plans, proactively surveying fleet KPI and promoting improving actions.
• Develops LCC model by sub-system and related reporting, then develops and maintain visual management of LCC (after transfer from ISR team)
• Provides LCC status, including risks/savings and associated actions plan, for CPR submissions
• Searches for improvement actions in maintenance operations, performing engineering interface activities with Operations Engineers (depot support).
• Promotes the use of latest maintenance technics and R&D developments (CBM, RCM, Lean).
• Analyses failure criticality studies and uses RCM (Reliability Centered Maintenance) and other available methodologies to define and optimize the maintenance requirements, tasks and intervals.

EXPERIENCE

Mandatory:

• 5-10 years of experience in the design, testing, commissioning and/or maintenance of Railways systems : Signaling & Communication (on-board, trackside)
• Working knowledge of safety management systems and safety risk assessment

In the context of Tren Maya project, ALSTOM is offering high level of Maintenance Service of the Rolling Stock, Track systems (Signaling & Communication) and Maintenance facilities.

The Sr Maintenance System Engineer Signaling, Communication systems and Facilities is contributing to the technical activities within this Services scope, ensuring :

• Continuous technical support to the Operator and the Maintenance teams ;

• Permanent monitoring of systems performances for reaching targets and continuously improve them, in particular :

• Safety

• Availability (support to Fleet management team)
• Reliability (Service failures vs contractual target, but also Intrinsic performance of systems and components)

• Maintenance cost (labor hours and material consumption vs LCC budget forecast)

• Configuration management of all maintained assets (trainsets, systems), and also related spare parts and technical documentation, including management of engineering change process and preparation of technical inputs to set up the MMS (Maintenance Management System)

• Interface with Alstom Design Authority teams and suppliers (technical subjects)

• Support to PI (Product Introduction) organization to successfully meet the requirements for the end of warranty

• Occasionally involved in the interface with customer about good realization of the maintenance program, discussions about technical issues and trainsets/systems performances.

The Sr Maintenance System Engineer Signaling, Communication systems and Facilities, by delegation from the Sig/Com/Facilities Maintenance Engineer, can be in turn the technical authority on operations sites, able to assess capability of the material to ensure commercial service.
If already on-board during Design phase, he/she participates to the Design Reviews, making sure it is consistent with Services project targets : LCC, availability, reliability. He/She also brings the necessary inputs about operational processes and maintenance infrastructure.
During warranty phase, Services Engineering team has a key role to support Production Introduction team in Reliability Growth. The Sr Maintenance System Engineer Sig/Com/Facilities proceeds to pre-analysis of corrective data and investigations, in order to orient the activity of “back office” engineering team for quick improvements. This activity is done in very close team work with Troubleshooters and ATV (Asistencia Técnica en Vía) Technicians.
If/when the Design teams (RSC / D&IS) get progressively demobilized, the Services Engineering team is widely autonomous to handle 95% of technical subjects, referring to RSC / D&IS Design Authority for changes, or even substituting D.A. in case it has been formally transferred. From this period, the Sr Maintenance System Engineer Sig/Com/Facilities contributes also to all Engineering activities of the related scope of work, including the ones performed by other Alstom sites or suppliers. The Services Engineering team is also in charge of managing the technical REX (Return-of-Experience) of the project.
Monitoring & treatment of obsolescence are also part of Services engineering scope of work.
