Functional Lab Engineer
The Functional Lab Engineer contributes to Train Lab preparation and operation by securing TrainLab readiness including hardware installation, integration and commissioning. They will prepare TrainLab configuration for test execution and support test teams during test execution, ensuring availability of the functional test means and executing train level functional tests when delegated by the Train Validation Engineer.
We’ll look to you for:
- Ensure 100% compliance with EHS rules, especially regarding activities on TrainLab and TestBench.
- Collect inputs for test means configurations and analyse their quality.
- Define and generate applicable configurations for test means, including:
- Train equipment models such as basic or advanced functional models.
- Software in the Loop + Environmental Models.
- Hardware in the Loop.
- TCMS software and associated deliverables (e.g., Interface Control Documents).
- Preparation of TrainLab: subsystem hardware integrations, commissioning of uLab and guest cubicles, network deployment with IS&T.
- Generate configurations for functional test means and verify coherence with TCR (Target Configuration Release) and Train Needs.
- Perform specific investigations and measurements linked to the TrainLab environment and contribute to continuous improvement of tools: LV modelling, equipment modelling, configuration tools.
- Support the Test Engineers during test execution, which may involve shift work (e.g., three 8‑hour shifts) and provide analysis for the anomalies detected during test (Subsystem anomaly, TrainLab limitation, configuration issue, etc.).
- Support Control Engineers and System Engineers during system commissioning and investigation activities.
- Compile and sustain the standard documentation for configuration generation.
- Support deployment and monitoring of test means performance KPI.
- Support the test engineer on report creation and test problem report analysis.
