Role & responsibilities The Head Engineering & Development (Railways) will lead the research, design, and development of electronic systems for rolling stock, including displays, digital electronics, and power/analog electronics. This role will drive innovation and diversification of the companys product portfolio beyond displays and this is very important for us, and this is what we have been looking for. Visit Customers make presentations and identify the needs/wants in view of the new products. Identify OEMs for a potential collaboration. Facilitating Technology transfer by acting as a Point of Contact (as may be applicable in some cases) for fast induction of the product keeping in view the time-to-market. 1. Embedded Systems Development Lead the design and development of embedded hardware (PCBs, SoCs, FPGAs) and firmware for railway applications, including: Select and validate processors (ARM Cortex, PowerPC, x86), microcontrollers (STM32, NXP, Renesas), and FPGAs (Xilinx, Intel/Altera) for railway-grade applications. Ensure compliance with IEC standards e.g. IEC 62280 (SIL-2/4), IEC 61373 and other EN 50155 (railway electronics), EN 50657 (software), EN 50121, EN 61000, RDSO and CENELEC standards. 2. Technology Transfer & Collaboration Manage technology transfer from R&D/partners to production, ensuring seamless integration of railway-specific chipsets (TI, Infineon, Microsemi). Collaborate with global technology partners for IP cores, ASICs, and safety-certified components. 3. Cross-Functional Coordination Act as the primary interface between R&D, production, QA, and procurement to align on railway-grade component selection (extended temp, shock/vibration resistance). Ensure EN 50128 compliance or DO-178C (software) for firmware development. 4. Obsolescence Management Develop strategies to mitigate component obsolescence in long-lifecycle railway systems. Identify alternate chipsets, pin-compatible replacements, and redesign solutions while maintaining EN 50126/50129 compliance. 5. Engineering Management Oversee V-model development, HARA (Hazard Analysis), and FMEA for railway safety-critical systems. Ensure projects meet SIL (Safety Integrity Level) requirements and RAM (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability) targets. 6. Innovation & Cost Optimization Drive adoption of AI/ML-based predictive maintenance, IoT-enabled sensors, and edge computing in railway systems. Optimize BOM costs by selecting industrial-grade SoCs (NXP i.MX, TI Sitara) and modular designs. 7. Manufacturing SOP Compliance Ensure adherence to IPC-A-610 (PCB standards) and railway manufacturing SOPs. Resolve EMC/EMI issues (EN 50121-3-2) and thermal management challenges in embedded designs. Preferred candidate profile Bachelor’s/Master’s in Electronics/Electrical/Embedded Systems Engineering. 12–15 years in embedded hardware/firmware development, preferably in railways or automotive or aerospace.

Experience with IEC 61508, EN 5012x series, and IRIS certification.

Job Objective: To lead and manage the Quality Assurance activities for the design, development, testing, and deployment of the Automatic Train Protection (ATP) System, ensuring adherence to SIL-4 safety standards, RDSO specifications, and international functional safety norms (EN 50128, IEC 61508). Key Responsibilities: Quality Planning & Governance Develop and implement QA strategy, processes, and policies specific to Kavach development lifecycle. Define quality objectives, KPIs, and acceptance criteria in alignment with RDSO and SIL4 requirements. Prepare the Quality Assurance Plan (QAP) in accordance with Indian Railways and CENELEC standards. Standards & Compliance Ensure compliance with safety-critical software development standards: EN 50128, IEC 61508, ISO 9001, and RDSO-issued specifications. Drive process adherence across partners for joint development and documentation. Documentation & Audits Review and approve technical documents such as SRS, SDS, FMEA, Traceability Matrix, Test Plans, and Validation Reports. Coordinate internal audits, gap analyses, and third-party SIL certification audits (e.g., TUV, RDSO inspections). Ensure traceability of requirements through all stages of design, development, and testing. Testing & Verification Oversight Ensure V&V activities comply with applicable safety norms, including black-box, white-box, integration, and field trial testing. Review test protocols and results from software, hardware, and system integration tests. Monitor non-conformances (NCRs), CAPA activities, and regression tracking. Vendor & Subsystem QA Coordination Interface with hardware and software development partners (e.g., VAPL, Tata Elxsi) to ensure quality compliance. Support review and verification of PCB designs, hardware validation, and environmental testing. Customer & Stakeholder Engagement Coordinate with RDSO, IRISET, and Indian Railways for QA-related clarifications, issue resolution, and reporting. Participate in field trial readiness assessments and QA reporting for Go-Live approvals. Required Qualifications: Bachelor's / Masters degree in Electronics, Electrical, Embedded Systems, or a related discipline. 8+ years of QA experience in safety-critical systems, preferably in Railway Signaling / Transportation sector. Certified in ISO 9001, IEC 61508, or EN 50128 preferred.
