We are seeking a highly motivated Battery Project Engineer to join our team in developing innovative maintenance technologies for railway rolling stock. This role offers an end-to-end experience, where you'll play a key role in optimizing (predictive/preventative) maintenance strategies for on-board batteries. Your responsibilities will range from supporting our maintenance locations to understand the data collected on the batteries for their optimised operation and maintenance, to identifying how to pro-actively develop condition monitoring solutions, relevant to the need of the Stadler group. You'll also be involved in validating the developed solutions through field testing and deploy-ing them on the company's internal IT platform, ensuring a seamless transition toward a more effi-cient life-cycle of the batteries.
