We're more than 85,000 people worldwide creating the industry's most diverse portfolio: high-speed trains, metros, trams, maintenance services and integrated systems.\nAre you passionate about the railway world and complex systems? The Train Control & Monitoring Systems (TCMS) team opens its doors to you (St-Bruno office, QC).\nThe Train Control and Monitoring System (TCMS) team is involved in the improvement and troubleshooting of our customers active train fleets. The typical projects span from issue troubleshooting, obsolescence management to functional improvements.\nThe TCMS has an onboard and a wayside application: The onboard portion acquires train data, apply control rules and activates outputs for train operation. It also gathers multiple train health metrics that are sent to the wayside software over wireless links. The wayside application receives, processes, archives and makes this data available for consultation. This data is used for efficient train operation, preventive and reactive maintenance.\nThe team needs to increase its capacity into a distributed system with multi Operating Systems and programming languages environment, articulated through Network protocols, to fulfil our customers projects.\nMore Than a Job: A Mission\nAs an onboard Software developer, you will be responsible for the maintenance and improvement of the various software components as well as being a key player in the related design and troubleshooting of train software and build process tools.\nThe Software developer works in close relationship with the Software Testers and System Engineers towards the delivery of a reliable and issue free software in compliance with established processes in a continuous build, integration and delivery fashion.\nYour Role, Your Impact\nAnalyse data to define and validate technical solutions.\nImplement software solutions corresponding to client requirements.\nTroubleshoot, debug and assess onboard existing issues.\nMaintain and improve software development ecosystem (coding, configuration management, continuous integration, test tools, etc…)\nParticipate in the entire software development lifecycle (analysis, design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance).\nWrite technical reports that comply with company standards.\nWhat You Bring\nYou will have a demonstrable knowledge and capability across a range of different computer operating systems, medium-high software programming and network knowledge.\nCandidate must be versatile, resourceful, autonomous and handy at intervening on existing SW components.\nProfile & Technical Skills\nBachelor’s or Master’s degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, or equivalent.\n3-5 years of experience in embedded software development.\nStrong programming skills in C, C++, C#.\nGood knowledge of scripting/programming languages such as Python, Bash/Shell scripting, and PowerShell.\nExperience with RTOS and embedded Linux.\nComfortable working in both Windows and Linux development environments.\nGood understanding of embedded systems, multithreading, memory management, inter-process communication, and real-time constraints.\nKnowledge of communication protocols and interfaces such as Ethernet, TCP/IP, UDP, CAN, UART, SPI, and I²C.\nExperience with Git or any other source control, branching, andcode review practices.\nFamiliarity with build systems and toolchains such as CMake, Make, GCC, and cross-compilation.\nExperience with debugging (analyzing engineering log, Wireshark, etc), unit testing, and integration testing.\nFamiliarity with CI/CD (Git piplines, jenkin jobs, …) and automated build/test environments.\nKnowledge of object-oriented programming,software architecture, and design principles.\nAbility to analyze software requirements and produce clear technical documentation.\nGood analytical, troubleshooting, problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skills.\nAlstom, A Great Place to Grow\nWorking daily in an innovative project environment\nReceiving a competitive salary including full social coverage (life, health, retirement) from the start of employment\nDeveloping new skills and your full potential through the continuous training offered\nOpportunities that match your ambitions within the organization\nLocation: Saint-Bruno (South Shore of Montreal).\nFormat: Permanent, full-time (40h).\nModel: Hybrid (3 days on-site / 2 days remote)\nKnowledge of a language other than French is an asset to facilitate communication with our partners, suppliers, colleagues, and international clients.
