Switching between real-world physical systems and abstract electrical models will become effortless.

You will share our passion for delivering for our customers, continual learning, pushing boundaries and testing assumptions.

You will be involved in introducing innovations delivering a step change in cost and performance of railway systems, making a real difference to safety and reliability of millions of journeys daily.
