Job Description:1. System Architecture & Conceptual DesignDevelop the overall system architecture for PSDs, including mechanical layout, electrical interfaces, and control logic.Define design criteria based on project requirements, safety standards (e.g., EN 50126/50128/50129), and environmental conditions.Lead feasibility studies and site-specific customization for new or retrofit installations.2. Detailed Engineering DesignOversee the creation of detailed engineering drawings, 3D models, and schematics for:Door panels and drive mechanismsTrack interface and anchoring systemsElectrical wiring and control cabinetsHuman-machine interfaces (HMI) and emergency systemsEnsure integration with signaling systems, train detection, and station infrastructure.3. Design Validation & PrototypingConduct design reviews, failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), and risk assessments.Supervise the development and testing of mock-ups or prototypes to validate mechanical and control performance.Collaborate with suppliers to ensure design-for-manufacture (DFM) and design-for-installation (DFI) principles are met.4. Interface & Integration DesignCoordinate with civil, signaling, rolling stock, and communications teams to manage interface control documents (ICDs).Ensure PSD design aligns with platform edge tolerances, train door positions, and emergency egress requirements.Design for redundancy, fail-safe operation, and manual override mechanisms.5. Documentation & CompliancePrepare and maintain:Design specificationsBill of Materials (BOM)Installation and commissioning manualsAs-built drawingsEnsure compliance with international standards (e.g., ISO, IEC, NFPA) and local authority regulations.6. Stakeholder CollaborationPresent design concepts and updates to clients, consultants, and regulatory bodies.Incorporate feedback from operations, maintenance, and safety teams into iterative design improvements.Support tendering and technical bid evaluations with design input.
