Job Description

We are looking for a System Architect

Youll make a difference by:

  • We are seeking an experienced System Architect to lead the design and specification of Automatic Train Protection (ATP) systems in the railway domain. This role focuses on embedded safety-critical systems and requires deep expertise in SIL4-compliant architectures, systems thinking, and stakeholder collaboration. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with train protection technologies such as Kavach (TCAS), PTC, ETCS, and TCAS.

Key Responsibilities:

  • System Architecture & Design
  • Define and maintain System Requirements Specifications (SRS) and System Architecture Specifications (SAS).
  • Develop and manage Interface Control Documents (ICDs) and ensure seamless integration across subsystems.
  • Ensure system design complies with SIL4 safety standards (EN 50126, EN 50128, EN 50129).
  • Apply systems thinking to analyze, design, and optimize complex embedded systems.
  • Quickly understand base solutions and adapt them to meet evolving customer and regulatory requirements.
  • Utilize UML modeling for system design and documentation.
  • Apply simulation tools to validate system behavior and performance under various operational scenarios.
  • Quickly Understanding base solutions and defining reuse approach.
  • Stakeholder Management
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including hardware, software, safety, and validation.
  • Engage with customers, certification bodies, and railway operators to align system design with expectations.
  • Lead technical discussions and ensure traceability of requirements through the development lifecycle.

Domain Expertise

  • Apply knowledge of Train Protection Systems such as:
  • Kavach (TCAS) Indian Train Collision Avoidance System.
  • PTC Positive Train Control (USA).
  • ETCS European Train Control System.
  • Understand operational scenarios, fail-safe mechanisms, and interoperability requirements.
  • Technical Leadership
  • Guide engineering teams in implementing system-level designs and safety architectures.
  • Support safety case development, validation, and certification processes.
  • Evaluate and recommend tools, platforms, and technologies for system development.
  • Required Skills & Qualifications:
  • Bachelors or masters degree in Electronics, Computer Science, or related field.
  • 15+ years of experience in embedded systems architecture, preferably in railway or other safety-critical domains.
  • Proven experience with SIL4-compliant system design and safety lifecycle processes.
  • Strong understanding of real-time systems, microcontrollers, and communication protocols.
  • Familiarity with tools like DOORS, Enterprise Architect, and model-based systems engineering (MBSE).
  • Proficiency in UML design and system modeling.
  • Experience with simulation environments for embedded systems validation.
  • Generic Skills & Experience:

  • Strong foundation in systems thinking and architectural abstraction.
  • Strong experience in handing of Nonfunctional requirements at architectural level
  • Experience with requirement engineering, traceability, and change management.
  • Familiarity with Agile, V-Model, or hybrid development lifecycles.
  • Exposure to configuration management and version control tools (e.g., Git, SVN).
  • Understanding of formal verification, validation, and safety case development.
  • Background in programming languages such as C/C++, Python.
  • Experience in system integration and managing cross-domain dependencies.
  • Preferred Experience:

  • Hands-on experience with Kavach (TCAS), PTC, ETCS, or similar ATP systems.
  • Exposure to railway signaling, onboard control systems, and interoperability frameworks.
  • Experience with formal methods, hazard analysis, and safety documentation.
  • Soft Skills:

  • Strong analytical and systems thinking.
  • Excellent communication and documentation skills and stack holder management experience
  • Ability to lead cross-functional teams and manage complex technical programs.

Desired Skills:

  • 15+ years of experience is required.
  • Great Communication skills.
  • Analytical and problem-solving skills
