Rail Designer

With your design talent, you will work on rail projects that matter and contribute to a more beautiful and accessible Netherlands.

From tracks to underpasses: as an AutoCAD designer, you are an important link in our rail projects. A large part of your work consists of preparing execution designs for track and rail. You collect information, conduct site surveys, and participate in design meetings. This is a significant responsibility: your design is used to carry out the work outdoors. Therefore, you always work meticulously and with a focus on quality. As a rail designer, we also deploy you to create drawings for the preparation of contracts for ProRail. Furthermore, you check the contributions of other drafters and designers for quality. In all of this, we make use of the latest applications and insights in the field of 3D design, software, sensing, and big data. In this, you may take an active role to contribute to innovations surrounding the design process.
