• Monitor design progress against approved schedules and project milestones.
• Ensure design deliverables comply with contractual requirements, client standards, regulatory requirements, and project procedures.
• Review design submissions and coordinate comments from relevant stakeholders.
  Manage the technical review cycle with Infrastructure Ontario, Metrolinx, and the TTC to resolve engineering comments, clear variances, and secure Stage Gate approvals.
• Track design revisions and ensure effective management of design changes.
• Identify design risks and implement mitigation measures to maintain project objectives.

Coordination and Interface Management

• Serve as the primary coordination point between Alstom and the Lead Designer.
• Facilitate technical discussions and design review meetings.
• Ensure timely resolution of design interfaces and technical issues.
• Coordinate multidisciplinary design inputs and integration with other railway systems and civil infrastructure.
• Maintain effective communication among project stakeholders to ensure alignment on technical requirements and project priorities.

Technical Oversight

• Provide technical leadership and guidance on S&TCS design documentation.
• Verify that system designs comply with relevant railway standards, specifications, and operational requirements.
• Support the review and resolution of technical deviations, non-conformities, and design-related issues.
• Participate in design assurance and verification activities as required.

Planning and Reporting

• Develop and maintain design status trackers and action registers.
• Monitor key performance indicators related to design delivery.
• Prepare regular design progress reports for project management and stakeholders.
• Present design status, risks, issues, and mitigation actions during project meetings.
• Maintain records of design reviews, decisions, and action items.

Risk and Change Management

• Identify and manage design-related risks and opportunities.
• Support the assessment of design changes and their impact on cost, schedule, and project delivery.
• Escalate critical issues requiring management intervention.

Engineering Governance & Constructability

• Design Optimization: Review engineering submissions from the Lead Designer to enforce constructability, identify design gaps, and eliminate spatial or logic clashes before construction release.
• Digital Engineering (BIM): Utilize BIM/Navisworks software to perform multi-disciplinary coordination, resolving physical clashes between signaling cables, trackway assets, structural elements, and MEP systems.
• Stakeholder Technical Approvals: Manage the technical review cycle with Infrastructure Ontario, Metrolinx, and the TTC to resolve engineering comments, clear variances, and secure Stage Gate approvals.

Technical Change Management: Evaluate and provide technical impact assessments for any proposed design changes, modifications, or field variances affecting the S&TCS network.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Computer, or Systems Engineering from an accredited university.
• 8+ years of rail S&TCS design and engineering experience.
• Proven experience working as a S&TCS Design Manager or Lead Systems Engineer for a general contractor, consortium, or major delivery partner on large-scale design-build transit projects.
• Demonstrated success managing complex technical interfaces between major rolling stock/signaling OEMs and civil infrastructure teams.
• Deep technical familiarity with Alstom CBTC, including zone controllers, transponders/balises, and system application configurations.
• In-depth knowledge of CBTC (Communications-Based Train Control) principles, wayside equipment layouts, track circuits, and axle counters.
• Thorough understanding of Metrolinx, TTC, and Canadian railway standards, alongside international functional safety frameworks (CENELEC and AREMA).
