What you can look forward to.
More than 10,000 trains run daily on the Swiss rail network and your work helps ensure that processes, systems and data reliably support this operation. In the ART Analytics & Datahub, you work closely with the business to specifically improve punctuality and build a data foundation that advances the automation of core processes. You are also responsible for our Shared Services teams. They create technical, professional and organisational foundations used throughout the organisation, offering you an environment with responsibility, scope for design and development opportunities. Benefits such as a free GA travelcard, discounted travel abroad – also for the family – can be found on our website under Benefits.
What you can achieve.
- As a Release Train Engineer, you shape the prerequisites for a high-performing Agile Release Train together with the Product Manager and System Architect and promote effective, interdisciplinary collaboration.
- Together with the Scrum Masters, you set clear organisational and procedural frameworks and drive the further development of the organisation.
- You are responsible for planning and conducting the ART events and processes according to SAFe and align these with the requirements of safety-critical railway systems.
- Through proactive workforce and financial management, you ensure the availability of the right skills together with suppliers and partners.
- With a systemic view, you recognise connections, dependencies and bottlenecks in complex system and organisational landscapes and initiate sustainable improvements.
- With moderation, conflict resolution and transparent communication, you support teams across team and departmental boundaries and strengthen a culture of trust, diversity, self-organisation and continuous improvement.
What you bring with you.
- As a servant leader, you convince with a natural flair for people, promote self-organisation and inspire with solutions and ideas.
- With strong communication across all levels, resilience and clarity, you lead in crucial moments and build sustainable relationships in stakeholder management.
- You are characterised by an independent, pragmatic and responsible working style and, as a technical leader, you support and promote individual development as well as a culture of continuous improvement.
- You bring experience as a Scrum Master or Release Train Engineer in agile product development in a technically, professionally and socially complex environment, including practical experience in large group moderation.
- You effectively apply very good knowledge of agile roles, responsibilities, principles and methods according to SAFe and support and moderate the relevant events; you are proficient in working with Jira, Miro, Microsoft Teams and Confluence.
- You have a tertiary degree in computer science or economics at FH, university or ETH level or an equivalent qualification; you communicate confidently in German at least at level C1 and in English at least at level B2, and industry knowledge in the railway context is an advantage.
