Reporting to the Lead System Engineer, the system engineer will be responsible for delivering project upgrade works mainly across Transport for London and Network rail infrastructure.
Acting as the systems engineer for customer's project, you will be responsible for undertaking all technical aspects of projects with a focus on cyber security. This will include managing the production of design packages for minor works and major works for new and existing system upgrades, ensuring all works are carried out to the correct standard, working with the project management teams to scope out new works.
