The position involves close collaboration with multidisciplinary engineering teams and significant contribution to safety documentation, system architecture, and fault-tolerant design strategies appropriate for train safety systems.Responsibilities

Design, implement, and maintain embedded C software for onboard signaling and train control systems.
Develop software for safety-related functions such as automatic train protection, communications handling, timing synchronization, diagnostics, and fault management.
Work closely with onboard hardware, including processors, I/O modules, communication buses, and safety-related peripherals.
Ensure deterministic execution and robust error handling in a real-time embedded environment.
Develop software in accordance with safety lifecycle requirements for railway control and protection systems.
Contribute to safety documentation, including software requirements, architecture descriptions, and detailed design specifications.
Implement defensive coding techniques and fault-tolerant strategies suitable for train safety systems.
Collaborate closely with project engineering, systems engineering, signaling design, hardware, verification and validation (V&V), and safety assurance teams throughout the development lifecycle.
Write clear, testable, and traceable software requirements for embedded control functions.
Contribute to system architecture trade-offs involving performance, safety, maintainability, and certification impact.
Participate in structured, audited, and configuration-controlled development processes to ensure high-quality and traceable software deliverables.
