Guided by our leadership vision of valuing people, embracing agility, and fostering growth, we cultivate an innovative culture that empowers you to achieve your full potential. Unleash your talent and redefine what's possible.
We're looking for someone who can lead with confidence, navigate complex technical challenges, and bring people together around practical solutions. This role requires a professional who can see both the big picture and the operational details, someone who understands how critical ATS performance is for safe, reliable transit operations and who can drive progress across technical, operational, and stakeholder teams. If you thrive in high-visibility environments where leadership, coordination, and technical judgment matter every day, we'd like to hear from you.
Ready to work on complex Automatic Train Supervision (ATS) and Communication-Based Train Control (CBTC) initiatives that support essential transit operations in New York? We are currently seeking a Senior Engineer to support projects at New York City Transit (NYCT) in leading working group activities, evaluating system upgrades, and coordinating with stakeholders and vendors on critical ATS-related improvements and issue resolution.
Parsons ATS Engineers work in a multidisciplinary environment to support the review, evaluation, approval, and acceptance of vendor work products associated with ongoing ATS system enhancements. The role includes chairing the ATS Working Group, conducting and leading technical meetings, preparing agendas and minutes, tracking actions, and supporting NYCT teams in discussions with CBTC/ATS suppliers related to system failures, crashes, and reliability improvements. This position also involves assessing the feasibility of proposed upgrades, contributing to the development of operational concepts and requirements, and ensuring that technical, operational, maintenance, and IT stakeholders are aligned on strategies that minimize downtime and support system performance.
You must be organized, technically strong, and highly effective at communicating with clients, project teams, department leaders, and vendor representatives across a range of technical and management levels. If you are energized by mission-critical rail technology, systems integration, and the opportunity to support one of the most demanding transit environments in North America, this position, and Parsons, is for you.
