Summary

As a highly experienced Senior Design Engineer in Railway signalling, I have over 6 years of expertise in delivering complex railway signalling projects. With extensive knowledge and hands-on experience in Route relay interlocking, panel interlocking, CBTC and ERTMS technology, I have consistently demonstrated my ability to design and implement innovative and efficient signalling solutions.

My proven track record includes delivering successful projects while working for London Underground Limited on the 4LM project, where I was responsible for leading the design and implementation of signalling systems. I am currently leading the design team in the implementation of advanced signalling solutions for the MTR Hongkong project.

Throughout my career, I have exhibited strong leadership skills and an exceptional ability to work collaboratively with stakeholders at all levels, including contractors, engineers, and project managers. I am highly skilled in utilizing software such as Microstation, AutoCAD, and PDF Exchange Viewer to design and implement railway signalling systems that meet or exceed project requirements.

With a passion for innovation, I am constantly seeking opportunities to learn and grow within the industry. As a result, I am confident that my experience and skillset make me a strong candidate for any Senior Design Engineer role in Railway signalling.
