This is the professional in charge of the implementation of signalling remote control systems in railway networks - systems that control the signalling of trains and tracks, and automatic control and driving systems. :His/her role is carried out in different physical locations: in the rolling stock (trains), on the train tracks and control centres.

• Coordinate and direct new remote-controlled signal installations, and optimise existing ones.
• Manage teams that will execute projects of low responsibility.
• Programme control systems by means of specific signalling and remote-controlled software.
• Design tracks maps that include signalling systems that use computer-design programmes such as AutoCad.
• Carry out the monitoring of signalling systems maintenance, located in equipment installed on the trains themselves.
• Carry out monitoring of the maintenance teams and the signalling systems installed on tracks.
• Coordinate and supervise the responsibilities of IT centre work teams that control stretches of track, and central control posts.
• Generate documentation related to incidences associated with track signalling and remote control, and carry out proposed improvements.
• Elaborate studies and carry out the analysis of information that serve to increase the quality of signalling and control systems.
