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.\nMore than a job: a mission\nLaunch your engineering career through a 24-month rotational programmedesigned to help you grow towards a CAD Mechanical Engineer or Mechanical Leader Engineerrole in Mechanical Integration.\nOver four six-month rotations, you’ll work alongside multidisciplinary engineering teams and contribute to real projects. Build hands-on experience across Mechanical Integration, Structural Integrity and General Studies, developing the technical breadth to understand the train as a complete mechanical system before returning to Mechanical Integration to put your\nlearning into practice.\nYour journey will take you through four complementary rotations:\n1. Build your foundation in Mechanical Integration\nStart in Mechanical Integration, within Interior or Cab. Help integrate mechanical subsystems and develop allocated volumes to the required maturity. Gain experience in Space Allocation Mock-ups (SAM), 3D and 2D design, mechanical interfaces, assembly, manufacturability and maintainability.\n2. Explore Structural Integrity\nWork with specialists to explore the structural aspects of train design. Learn how structural requirements and constraints shape mechanical design and broaden your mechanical engineering knowledge.\n3. Broaden your perspective in General Studies\nGain a vehicle-level perspective on Train Design and discover how different technical domains interact. Build a broader understanding of the engineering considerations that shape the train as a whole.\n4. Bring it all together in Mechanical Integration\nReturn to Mechanical Integration for an Interior or Cab rotation complementary to your first. Apply the knowledge and experience gained throughout the programme and continue developing towards your target role.\nBy the end of the programme, you’ll have gained practical engineering experience and a broader understanding of the train as an integrated mechanical system, helping you continue growing towards a CAD Mechanical Engineerrole.\nYour role, your impact\nThroughout the programme, you’ll progressively take on greater responsibility and contribute to activities such as:\nCreate and maintain Space Allocation Mock-ups (SAM) in line with maturity rules.\nPrepare annotated SAMs for supplier exchanges and check that supplier feedback meets requirements.\nDevelop detailed 3D and 2D designs for in-house parts.\nProduce assembly drawings and Bills of Materials (BOM) for industrialisation.\nProvide weight data and contribute to stack-up calculations.\nDeliver accurate, high-quality 3D and 2D outputs on time.\nWork with committed teams to solve complex engineering challenges. Through the Engineering Rotational Programme, you’ll help design the trains that move our world.\nWhat you bring\nYou don’t need to arrive knowing everything about trains or Train Design. The programme is designed for you to learn.What matters is a strong engineering foundation, curiosity and the motivation to understand how complex systems behave and how technology turns requirements into working train functions.\nYou bring:\nA recently completed bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering or a related engineering field.\nAn interest in mechanical design, product integration and CAD tools.\nA solid understanding of fundamental mechanical engineering principles.\nFluency in English and French, with strong communication and teamwork skills.\nA growth mindset, analytical ability and a drive to keep learning.\nCuriosity about different engineering disciplines.\nThe ability to work effectively in a multidisciplinary environment.\nMotivation to complete a structured engineering development programme with four rotations.\nHow success is measured\nSteady progress through each rotation, with clear evidence of learning and development.\nAccurate, high-quality design deliverables and documentation.\nPositive collaboration and a contribution to a safe, inclusive and high-performing team culture.\nAlstom, a great place to grow\nBuild your engineering career through varied, real-world train design experiences.\nExplore innovative mobility projects and benefit from technical mentorship at St Bruno.\nHelp deliver greener, smarter and more connected transport solutions.\nThe scale is ambitious and the challenges are complex, but the impact is real. When the system runs, the train moves and the city connects, you’ll see the difference your work makes.\nLanguage\nKnowledge of a language other than French is an asset when dealing with our international partners, suppliers, colleagues and customers. In Quebec, French remains the main working language of our company.\nYou don’t need to be a train enthusiast to thrive with us. We guarantee that when you step onto one of our trains with your friends or family, you’ll be proud. If you’re up for the challenge, we’d love to hear from you!\nImportant to note\nAs a global business, we’re an equal-opportunity employer that celebrates diversity across the 63 countries we operate in. We’re committed to creating an inclusive workplace for everyone.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5277,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"French","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false},{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Transport Infrastructure","Rail Transport"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-10T22:00:41Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":1,"expected_fill_days":21,"reasons":["conf:7","velocity","win:early","comp:junior,brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-12T10:38:37Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/alstom-graduate-engineering-rotation-program-cad-mechanical-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/alstom-graduate-engineering-rotation-program-cad-mechanical-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-13T06:19:43Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":13333,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":445391},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=445391"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Falstom-graduate-engineering-rotation-program-cad-mechanical-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"free","price":{"credits":0,"usd":0},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Falstom-graduate-engineering-rotation-program-cad-mechanical-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Falstom-graduate-engineering-rotation-program-cad-mechanical-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/alstom-graduate-engineering-rotation-program-cad-mechanical-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Falstom-graduate-engineering-rotation-program-cad-mechanical-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":4040499}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"alstom.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":4040499},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
