Light Rail Transit (LRT) Project Experience:• Lead engineer for design and development of Passenger Information Display (PID), and Time Synchronisation (TS) subsystems.• Supported design and development activities for Data Communication Network (DCN), and Emergency Help Point (EHP) subsystems. • Defined and designed interfaces (i.e. data, power, and civil), developed technical system specifications, detailed design documents, engineering analysis reports, and drawings (i.e. installation, equipment distribution, and single line diagrams). • Conducted trade-off studies to assist with the selection of solutions and associated equipment. Prepared technical specifications for Request for Proposal (RFP) and assisted with vetting (technical) of RFP responses from suppliers. • Systems requirement analysis, derivation, traceability, verification, and management within IBM DOORS RMF. Supported lead design engineers to maintain Requirements Verification and Traceability Matrix (RVTM). Generated RVTM exports for sub-systems to be shared with System Integrator (SI) for review and progressive system assurance.

Mass Rapid Rail Transit (MRT) Project Experience:• Performed installation, set to work, testing and commissioning (i.e. SAT and SIT) of railway communications systems and equipment across railway network including tunnels. Systems included Public Address System (PAS), Electronic Access Control (EAC), Passenger Information Display System (PIDS), and CCTV Camera System.• In co-ordination with installation managers and senior engineers; planned, prepared, and executed works in limited timeframes such as during nightshifts and/or track possessions.• Led and managed small teams of technicians and tradespeople on-site for execution of works related to testing and commissioning of sub-systems, troubleshooting and fault rectification.• Liaised with clients and third-party stakeholders for system deployment, interface testing, system tuning and commissioning.
