How will you make a difference?  

You’ll help design and deliver advanced control systems that power Distributed Power™, Remote Control Locomotive (RCL), and next-generation automation solutions used across global rail networks. 

This is a high-impact, hands-on engineering role focused on developing and delivering control system functionality end-to-end.
