You’ve Never Been Satisfied with "Good Enough."
You didn't get into this to manage one piece of a project. You got into it to change how the world gets built.
At Accenture Construct, that's the job. You'll help deliver the data centers, power grids, rail networks, factories and public infrastructure that keep communities moving — smarter, safer and more sustainably.
You'll work alongside people who think big and act bold: project managers, engineers, technologists and strategists who pair real-world delivery with AI. And you won't be handed a slice of it. We take on whole programs, from early strategy through construction and handover, and we stand behind how they land.
Because "positive enough" builds the past. You're here to build what's next.

- (Internal Title: Engineering V)
- Provide senior engineering management and independent technical governance for railway systems assurance across the client's networks and associated corridors. Develop, own and execute integrated system and sub-system Engineering Safety and Assurance Cases (ESAC), bringing together the technical evidence required to demonstrate that assets, systems and delivery outcomes are secure, reliable, maintainable, operable, compliant and ready for handover and acceptance.
- Lead the preparation and presentation of assurance cases to the System Review Panel (SRP), securing endorsement of assurance arguments and coordinating technical input from engineering disciplines. Develop and maintain project assurance plans, evidence requirements, acceptance criteria and assurance artefacts in accordance with the Systems Engineering Management Plan and associated technical assurance processes.
- Evaluate engineering evidence, Verification & Validation outputs, testing and commissioning information and technical decisions to confirm that they support the assurance case. Identify and manage technical assurance gaps, unresolved hazards, compliance issues, acceptance constraints and operational readiness risks, escalating issues through the appropriate engineering governance routes.
- Work closely with Systems Engineering, System Integration, engineering discipline leads and operational stakeholders to align assurance activities with delivery milestones, network constraints, handover and operational acceptance. Maintain the independence of the Systems Assurance function and provide oversight of external assurance consultants and delivery partners.
- This role is required to provide independent systems assurance and technical governance across the client's networks and associated corridors, ensuring that sufficient evidence is available to demonstrate that new and modified rail systems are protected, compliant, reliable, maintainable, operable and ready for handover and network acceptance.
- The role provides ownership and coordination of the integrated Engineering Safety and Assurance Case and brings together multidisciplinary engineering, Verification & Validation, testing,
commissioning and operational evidence into a coherent assurance position. It also provides a critical governance function by identifying unresolved hazards, evidence gaps, compliance issues and operational readiness risks before they impact system acceptance or handover.
- This senior assurance capability is essential to maintaining appropriate separation between engineering production and independent technical verification, supporting System Review Panel governance and ensuring that complex rail infrastructure can progress through assurance, acceptance and entry into service with the required level of technical evidence and risk control.
- Working Conditions
- Office-based ( 5 Days a week in Office)
- Experience:
- Minimum 10 years of direct experience in railway systems assurance, systems engineering governance or rail project delivery, including heavy rail or commuter network experience evaluating technical evidence, compiling integrated safety cases and interfacing with technical review panels.
- Strong knowledge of heavy rail and commuter regulatory frameworks, including Transport Canada requirements, Canadian Rail Operating Rules (CROR), FRA, APTA, corridor-specific access requirements and engineering governance.
- Education:
- University degree in Engineering, such as Systems, Electrical, Mechanical or Civil Engineering, or a related heavy rail technical discipline. An equivalent engineering or applied science background supported by relevant training and experience may also
considered.
- Licenses OR Certifications:
- Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) status is preferred but is not mandatory because the role does not endorse or approve engineering
