Context

This role is for Go Expansion Program and associated with the Delivery Partners for Metrolinx.

Missions/Main Duties

Provide strategic engineering leadership, technical governance and specialist oversight for railway signalling, conventional train control, European Train Control System (ETCS), Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) and wayside systems across the Metrolinx capital program expansion portfolio.
Act as the senior technical authority for signalling and train control design integrity, translating network and fleet operational requirements from Systems Engineering into actionable project delivery requirements. Provide technical leadership for the strategic rollout and migration of ETCS across the GO network while ensuring effective integration with legacy signalling systems and dual-equipped fleets.
Lead the review and validation of safety-critical signalling circuits, logic architectures, wayside configurations and vehicle-onboard interfaces. Provide technical oversight throughout design, installation, testing and system acceptance, including resolution of complex interfaces between signalling, track, traction power/OCS, civil infrastructure, rolling stock, maintenance facilities and external railway operators.
Maintain technical compliance frameworks and ensure adherence to Metrolinx standards, AREMA, CROR, CENELEC requirements and Transport Canada regulations. Lead the management of signalling-related engineering hazards, interface risks, technical variances and regulatory clearances, and provide senior oversight of engineering consultants, delivery partners and specialist signalling suppliers. Lead, resource and mentor the Signalling and Train Control engineering team.
This role is required to provide centralized technical leadership, engineering governance and safety oversight for signalling and train control systems across Metrolinx's capital program expansion portfolio. The position is particularly important to supporting the modernization and strategic rollout of ETCS across the GO network while maintaining safe and effective interoperability with existing legacy signalling infrastructure and mixed-traffic operations.
Signalling and train control are safety-critical railway systems with complex interfaces across track, rolling stock, traction power, maintenance facilities and other infrastructure. The role will provide senior technical authority to ensure these interfaces are appropriately managed, designs and system modifications meet required engineering and regulatory standards, and technical risks are identified and mitigated ahead of testing, commissioning and operational implementation.
This leadership capability is critical to safeguarding public safety, achieving regulatory and technical compliance, managing migration between legacy and modernized train control systems and ensuring that new and modified infrastructure is technically ready for safe operational acceptance.

Profile/Skills

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Systems Engineering or an equivalent technical engineering discipline.10+ years of progressive railway signalling and train control engineering experience, including a minimum of 5 years in a senior leadership or director-level capacity delivering complex brownfield or greenfield signalling solutions, CBTC deployments or safety-critical train control programs.
Active Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) status in good standing with Professional Engineers Ontario (PEO) is preferred, together with a comprehensive understanding of the Ontario Professional Engineers Act.
Proven technical expertise in the design, testing and deployment of European Train Control System (ETCS) architectures, together with knowledge of legacy track-circuit and blocksignalling systems used within North American transit networks.
Strong understanding of shared-corridor and mixed-traffic railway operations, including interoperability requirements relating to freight and intercity passenger services.Expertise in railway safety and engineering standards including CENELEC EN 50126, EN 50128 and EN 50129, IEEE 1474, AREMA guidelines, Canadian Rail Operating Rules (CROR), systems engineering lifecycle models and Transport Canada requirements.
Demonstrated senior leadership and stakeholder management capability, with the ability to manage complex multidisciplinary interfaces, technical risks, regulatory requirements and external engineering suppliers while communicating complex technical issues clearly to senior and non-technical stakeholders.
