Night shift, on-call service, renovation, maintenance and irregular working hours – that’s my daily bread. The working environment is very important to me.

Rémi Huttenschmitt

Chief Technician specialising in outdoor safety installations.

Safety inside and outside.

As a technician for safety and automation installations working outdoors, you help to construct, maintain and repair all the various safety installations at SBB such as point machines, barriers and signals. You also troubleshoot faults and work independently to perform challenging, largely mechanical tasks outside the safety installations.

As a technician for safety and automation installations working indoors, you help to construct, maintain and repair signal boxes and control technology installations. You also work independently to identify and fix faults affecting our complex installations such as signal boxes and points.

You will work in a motivated team and ensure also during on-call duty and irregular working hours the the availability of the systems - inside and outside.
