Publiée le 7 octobre 2026
At Alstom, we build what millions depend on daily - rail transportation systems that can't afford to fail. We're more than 85,000 people worldwide creating the industry's most diverse portfolio: high-speed trains, metros, trams, maintenance services and integrated systems.
More than a job: a mission
We're looking for a strategic and technically skilled leader to manage the long-term sustaining and service evolution of Train Control & Information Systems (TC&IS) solutions and products. Working with solution, product and services teams, you'll help ensure product continuity, develop innovative service offerings for on-board electronic solutions and support reliable mobility throughout the product lifecycle.
Your role, your impact
- Define and drive the product sustaining strategy for TC&IS product lines, ensuring sustaining requirements are established with the relevant rolling stock product lines.
- Support the development and regular update of Product Obsolescence Management Plans, covering both product roadmaps and sustaining activities.
- Ensure technology refresh and technology update requirements are incorporated into Product Obsolescence Management Plans.
- Ensure tender and project sustaining requirements are identified and taken into account.
- Review and validate Product Obsolescence Management Plans for TC&IS products.
- Maintain the installed-base view for TC&IS products, including customer updates and forecast service life.
- Work with Parts & Component Repair and Overhaul teams to propose sustaining and R&D budgets for products in the operations and maintenance phase.
- Develop and validate business cases for technology refreshes and product upgrades.
- Validate lifecycle-status change notifications and ensure lifecycle information is maintained in the relevant information systems.
- Lead periodic product-sustaining reviews with product development and support centres.
- Manage performance indicators for sustaining activities, including customer satisfaction, profitability and plan delivery.
- Build strong links across product lines, regional teams, procurement, development centres, services teams and external partners.
- Promote the Alstom Code of Ethics and uphold the highest standards of ethical conduct.
You'll work with committed, international teams solving complex challenges that shape the future of mobility. As a Train Control & Information Systems Services Manager, you'll ensure that innovation and product support endure long after trains begin their journeys.

- The ability to influence teams and stakeholders without direct hierarchical authority and to work effectively in a matrix organisation.
- Sound judgement and decision-making, supported by the ability to gather, assess and share relevant information.
- A logical, organised and self-motivated approach, with commitment to quality, cost and delivery objectives.
- Strong communication skills with senior internal and external stakeholders in an international environment.
- An international mindset and readiness to work across regions, customers, partners and suppliers.
- Expertise in obsolescence management, TCMS or traction is highly valued.
