Clarification of the mechanical interface, specification creation, and technical assessment of the power unit (engine, gearbox, clutch)
Close collaboration in power unit development, from concept assembly to vehicle operation with passengers
Responsibility for "Quality gates" and ensuring that proposed solutions align with requirements
Calculation of gearbox power losses for power unit efficiency optimization
Incorporation of functional and developmental principles into the design process
Close collaboration with internal and external partners in interface resolution and within-system designs

If the topic of sustainable transport and modern transport-related solutions is close to your heart, then you're one of us!
Siemens Mobility has been a leader in sustainable, reliable, and safe transport solutions for more than 160 years. We have a staff of over 700 employees in the Czech Republic. We are also home to the second largest rolling stock development centre globally (over 350 colleagues). We work on projects for the whole world, from defining requirements to SW/HW and mechanics development to addressing cross-cutting themes at a vehicle level.
We influence the lives of hundreds of thousands of passengers every day. You can ride our fully automated metro in Vienna, or take a high-speed train direct from London to Amsterdam, for example. You can also often meet Taurus, the world's fastest locomotive, on Czech railway lines.
Our current projects include the construction of a complete rail infrastructure and the delivery of long-distance and high-speed units for Egypt ("Suez on rails" (https://www.siemens.cz/press/siemens-mobility-podepsal-smlouvu-na-zeleznicni-system-na-klic-v-egypte-v-hodnote-3-miliard-usd) ). But we also deal with topics such as battery or hydrogen powertrains, autonomous driving, and related functional safety.
