Senior Telecom EngineerFull-timeBusiness Line: TransportationType of contract: Permanent contractService Line: Transverse - Transportation WBLRegion: Middle East and South AsiaJob Family: HR GeneralistsCompany DescriptionGreat Platform for TalentJob DescriptionRole OverviewLead the design, integration, and delivery of telecommunication and ICT systems for High-Speed Rail (HSR) assets including stations, depots, stabling yards, OCC/CC, and associated facilities. The role covers fixed and wireless communications, transmission networks, passenger information, public address, time synchronization, and integration with rail operational systems and critical building systemsKey ResponsibilitiesLead end-to-end design, integration, and delivery of telecom/ICT systems for HSR assets including stations, depots/stabling yards, OCC/CC, back-of-house buildings, and corridor-wide communications.Develop Basis of Design (BoD), system architecture, and design deliverables (concept to detailed design) for telecom systems, including as applicable:Transmission/backbone networks (fiber backbone, OTN/MPLS/IP/WAN), station LAN, OCC networksStructured cabling (copper/fiber), containment/pathways, telecom rooms (MDF/IDF), racks/ODF, patching and labeling philosophyRadio communications (TETRA/DMR, LTE/5G, GSM-R / FRMCS-ready concepts where required), indoor/outdoor coverage planning; tunnel communications concepts such as leaky feeder where in scopeTelephony / VoIP (SIP/VoIP, hotline/emergency phones, help points)Wi-Fi (public and operational), staff mobility solutions (if required)Passenger Information / CIS (PIDS) and Public Address / Voice Alarm (PA/VA) interfaces, zoning and priority philosophyMaster Clock / Time Synchronisation (GPS receivers, NTP/PTP distribution) for event correlation and operational systemsTelecom-side integration considerations for CCTV/Security transport (in coordination with Security Systems)Produce and coordinate design outputs: system schematics, single line diagrams, network block diagrams, device layouts, telecom room layouts, equipment schedules, BOM, duct/fiber routing plans, and interface matrices.Perform/coordinate network sizing and capacity engineering: bandwidth, QoS, latency/jitter considerations (voice), multicast where relevant, IP addressing concepts, PoE budgets (where applicable), storage/transport assumptions for video and operational applications.Define resilience and redundancy philosophy (ring/topology concepts, N+1 for critical nodes), failover expectations, maintainability access, spares strategy, and O&M handover requirements.Manage interfaces with OCC/CC operations and other rail systems: define segregation between corporate IT / operational networks / security networks, and document interfaces to SCADA, BMS/EMS, signaling, power, maintenance systems, AFC (if applicable).Coordinate with Architecture (public area coverage, rooms/data sheets), MEP (power/UPS loads, HVAC requirements, earthing/grounding, fire interfaces), Civil/Structural (duct banks, trenches, mounting), and BIM teams to ensure spatial coordination and clash-free design.Prepare technical specifications, Employer’s Requirements / performance specs, compliance matrices, and support technical notes for authority submissions and stakeholder reviews (as applicable).Support procurement and vendor management: technical evaluations, RFIs, design reviews, workshops, and value engineering while protecting performance and operational requirements.Lead and/or review testing, commissioning, and integration documentation and activities: FAT/SAT, network acceptance tests, end-to-end service verification (voice, radio coverage, PIDS/PA functions, time sync), and integration test plans.Apply project QA/QC and governance: ensure document control compliance, traceability of assumptions, and effective management of design change impacts on telecom architecture.QualificationsQualifications & ExperienceBachelor’s in Telecommunication.12–14 years security systems design on large public/transport/critical facilities.Strong understanding of structured cabling, network design interfaces, and compliance processes.Additional InformationSoftwareAutoCAD, Revit, Visio; ACC.
