Lead Engineer for Cable Routes in Rambøll's Rail Projects

Lead Engineer for Cable Routes in Rambøll's Rail Projects

Do you have experience in cable routes and cable management?

Rambøll is currently looking for an engineer with a civil engineering background who can take on the role of lead engineer for cables and cable routes on several major railway projects.

You might be a designer ready for the next step in your career.

You might have several years of experience with lead engineering?

As a lead engineer, you will work with many different disciplines within the railway sector, including signaling, power, and overhead lines. It is therefore important that you are proactive and able to understand the consequences your work has for other disciplines.

Would you like to become part of a well-functioning railway environment where quality, innovation, and professional development are paramount?

Then you might be the one we are looking for at Rambøll.

We are experiencing growth in the railway sector at Rambøll, which is why we are looking for more new colleagues. Rambøll works on some of the largest railway projects, both locally in Denmark and internationally.

We are flexible with the workplace, which can be in Copenhagen, Aarhus, Odense, or Vejle.

Inviting bright minds

Do you want to push the boundaries of your field while developing in an environment where we value collaboration and trust? We work to create a sustainable future, and we strive to set the standard for our industry with inspiring projects and innovative solutions. With us, you become part of a global company that has been successful since 1945. Together, we lead the way and make a positive impact on society, businesses, and people worldwide.

Your responsibilities as lead engineer or designer on railway projects

Since cables and cable routes are largely affected by earthworks and drainage works, part of your work will also involve assessing how cables can be protected or handled in connection with planned excavation works. Experience with civil works is therefore also a great advantage.

As a lead engineer or designer at Rambøll, you will work with design and lead engineering and become an essential part of driving and further developing our professional areas in collaboration with Rambøll's most experienced people and specialists.

Your tasks will range from designing new installations and modifications of existing installations at home and abroad, as well as planning and designing smaller and larger tasks within railway infrastructure.

Specifically, your daily tasks could include:

• Design of cable routes on railway projects
• Preparation of relevant technical documentation
• Description of cable handling according to applicable standards and regulations
• Coordination with other disciplines
• Contribution to the preparation of tender documents
• Lead engineering or project management on various projects

By becoming part of Rambøll, your daily life will be characterized by a high degree of sparring, where both professional and personal development are paramount. You will be part of a professionally strong and committed environment that spans from newly graduated employees with the latest knowledge from universities to very experienced employees who have worked in the field for many years.

Your background

We imagine that you are an engineer or have a similar technical background and have experience as a consultant, contractor, supplier, or infrastructure manager.

If you are newly graduated or still studying and find the position right for you, you are also welcome to apply.

You have good collaboration skills and the ability to translate your technical knowledge into value-creating advice for your clients. You communicate clearly in Danish and English, both orally and in writing.

From your first day at Rambøll, we support your personal and professional development. We expect your starting point to be:

• Skills in 2D & 3D design
• Experience with CAD & BIM using Bentley's tools (MicroStation, OpenRail, etc., possibly AutoDesk tools like AutoCAD)
• You have an education as an engineer with a civil engineering background, alternatively as an electrician.
• You have knowledge of Executive Order 1082
• That you speak and write fluent Danish as well as you speak and write English
• That you are outgoing and passionate about delivering good engineering work
• It is an advantage, but not a prerequisite, that you have experience with handling safety-technical, high-voltage, or overhead line cables in railways.

In addition, it is an advantage if you have experience working in other languages, especially German.
