The role requires someone who can bridge technical

CBTC knowledge with strong project management and client leadership skills.

Key Responsibilities

Lead and manage CBTC and train control projects throughout the project lifecycle, including planning, design, procurement, systems integration, testing, commissioning, and implementation.

Provide project leadership during design reviews, technical coordination meetings, integration activities, testing, commissioning, and system acceptance.
Manage and coordinate the activities of consultants, contractors, suppliers, system integrators, and other project partners.
Identify project risks, technical challenges, interface issues, and schedule impacts and drive appropriate mitigation and resolution strategies.
Monitor project progress against contractual requirements, milestones, budgets, and schedules.

Maintain effective communication with clients, agency stakeholders, project leadership, technical teams, contractors, and suppliers.
Support the development and review of technical scopes, proposals, schedules, estimates, and project execution plans.
Ensure project activities are performed in accordance with applicable quality, safety, technical, and contractual requirements.
Mentor and provide technical/project leadership to engineers and other project team members.
Support business development, proposal development, client presentations, and pursuit activities related to CBTC, signaling, and train control opportunities.
Collaborate with STV's Systems leadership and technical specialists to support the continued growth of the firm's CBTC and advanced train control capabilities.

The lifecycle emphasis here is consistent with existing internal CBTC leadership material, which identifies planning, procurement, design, systems integration, testing, commissioning, and revenue-service implementation as key phases of CBTC/train-control project delivery.
