The Railway RAMS Engineer will be responsible for ensuring the reliability, availability, maintainability, and safety (RAMS) of railway systems throughout their lifecycle—from design and development to operation and maintenance. This role is critical to guaranteeing that the railway system performs efficiently, safely, and with minimal downtime.
Specific Responsibilities
- At all times, comply with SGS Code of Integrity and Professional Conduct
- Evaluate the system’s ability to operate without failures over a defined period and ensure its availability when required.
- Conduct RAMS analyses in accordance with international standards (e.g., EN 50126, EN 50128, EN 50129).
- Ensure proper RAMS management across all subsystems of the railway system during design, implementation, and operational phases.
- Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams (engineering, operations, maintenance) to integrate RAMS requirements into system design and processes.
- Identify and mitigate potential risks that could impact system performance or safety.
- Prepare and review technical documentation, including RAMS plans, hazard logs, FMEA/FMECA, fault tree analyses, and safety cases.
- Support the development of maintenance strategies to optimize system availability and lifecycle cost.
- Participate in audits, assessments, and reviews related to RAMS compliance and performance.
