[What the role is]
MAINTENANCE INSPECTORS FOR RAIL SYSTEMS AND INFRASTUCTURE
There are vacancies in 4 different domains, namely:
- Rolling Stock and Rail Maintenance Vehicles
- Signalling, Communications Systems, Platform Screen Doors, Integrated Control Systems
- Traction Power System and Ancillary system (e.g. Fire protection, ventilation, drainage, lighting)
- Trackwork, Tunnels, Viaducts and Buildings Infrastructure.
Upon assessment, you will be assigned to the domain that best aligns with your relevant experience and skill sets.
[What you will be working on]
- Apply systematic maintenance audits to assure high standards in maintenance planning, execution, records and workforce for systems under your specialisation.
- Conduct deep, outcome-focused maintenance audits beyond compliance checking to uncover systemic risks and improve maintenance effectiveness
- Apply risk-based inspection approaches to conduct targeted inspections focusing on critical systems and high-impact failure modes.
- Identify emerging and latent maintenance and asset condition risks early, before they escalate into operational failures
- Implement technology-enabled inspection methods (e.g. data analytics or condition monitoring systems) to improve inspection effectiveness and efficiency
- Adopt predictive and analytical approaches to analyse asset and maintenance performance metrics, failure trends, asset condition
- Capture O&M insights and contribute towards building up of LTA’s knowledge to support design and life cycle management strategies for rail assets
[What we are looking for]
- Knowledge in Electrical, Electronics, Mechanical, Civil Engineering, or an equivalent field.
- Relevant engineering and rail domain expertise to assess maintenance quality and engineering integrity, interpret asset condition and degradation mechanisms
- Maintenance & reliability engineering knowledge to analyse failure trends and recurring defects and evaluate effectiveness of maintenance regimes
- Inspection and QA/QC experience to conduct structured audits using checklists and frameworks, identify gaps in maintenance processes and execution
- Data & analytical skills to interpret performance data, fault trends, and reliability metrics and use data to support risk-based inspection decisions
- Familiarity with digital inspection tools, condition monitoring systems, emerging technologies (e.g. AI, robotics, analytics platforms) to enhance inspection effectiveness and coverage.
- Communication skills to communicate findings and recommendations to stakeholders and to Produce clear, evidence-based inspection reports.
As part of the shortlisting process for the role, you may be required to complete a medical declaration and / or undergo further assessment.
