• Review safety evidence to help demonstrate compliance with applicable safety requirements, standards, and regulations.
• Contribute to the preparation of System Safety Reports, Safety Case artefacts, and related technical documentation.
• Apply relevant safety standards and regulations, including Transport Canada requirements, CSA R114:22 (CMREA), and EN 50126/50128/50129, throughout the project lifecycle.
• Strengthen project outcomes through clear technical writing, analytical thinking, and effective collaboration across multidisciplinary teams.
• Help advance safe, dependable rail and transit systems that support communities and improve mobility.

The Skills That Set You Apart

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Engineering, such as Functional Safety, Industrial, Systems, Electrical, Mechanical, or a related technical field.
• 2-5 years of experience in system, functional, or technical safety; internship or co-op experience may be considered.
• Competency in functional and technical safety, including familiarity with hazard identification and analysis.
• Experience or familiarity with qualitative, semi-quantitative, and quantitative risk assessment methods, including HAZID, SHA, FTA, FMECA, and risk matrices.
• Good technical writing, communication, and analytical skills, with the ability to prepare clear safety documentation.
• Ability to work collaboratively and effectively within multidisciplinary project teams.
• Knowledge of Transport Canada regulations, CSA CMREA, and EN 50126/50128/50129 is considered an asset.
• Experience in rail and transit projects and eligibility for P.Eng. designation are considered assets.
