We also think you are analytical and enjoy performing technical troubleshooting and finding solutions to problems.

Good communication and collaboration skills are also important as you work together with other technicians and staff at our depot.

• Knowledge of troubleshooting and the ability to solve complex problems is advantageous.
• Familiarity with the railway industry is a plus.
