Could you be the full-time onsite Test and Commissioning Engineer in Boston, MA, US we're looking for?

Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your comprehensive and technical expertise in a new cutting-edge field. You'll work alongside innovative, dedicated, and collaborative teammates. You'll significantly contribute to the safety and efficiency of MBTA train control systems through meticulous testing and commissioning processes. Day-to-day, you'll work closely with teams across the business (Engineering, Safety, Customer Service), perform detailed system tests and operational level evaluations, and much more.

We'll look to you for:

  • Conducting tests in compliance with company standards, project requirements, relevant test procedures, safety standards,
  • Identifying operational and technical problems and assisting in practical solutions and improvements to system design when appropriate,
  • Performing installation and testing of field modifications on "live" circuits and on new or existing equipment,
  • Assisting in the installation and test of factory and field modifications; assisting in the installation and adjustment of various signaling equipment,
  • Accurately completing test documentation, data sheets, marking plans, expense reports, daily logs, lost time, and discrepancy reports,
  • Maintaining location plans to reflect the "as installed or as tested" condition of locations under test

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:

  • Degree in Electrical Engineering or other technical discipline, or equivalent experience,
  • Experience or understanding of train control systems and signaling products,
  • Knowledge of electronics/electrical systems and test equipment,
  • Strong troubleshooting skills for problem identification and resolution,
  • Flexibility to work odd hours, extended shifts, holidays, and weekends

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:

  • Work with state-of-the-art train control systems and advanced testing equipment,
  • Progress towards becoming a leading expert in the field of railway signaling and train control engineering,
  • Collaborate with transverse teams and helpful colleagues,
  • Steer your career in whatever direction you choose across functions and countries

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
