  • Assign and clarify instructor responsibilities when multiple technical instructors are used in a course
  • Manage all training logistics, including equipment, tools, test devices, and consumables required for hands-on instruction
  • Monitor vendor and subcontractor technical quality and accuracy during classroom and field instruction
  • Deliver training covering railcar electrical systems, propulsion and auxiliary power, control circuits, subsystem integration, interfaces, and applicable FRA regulations
  • Serve as the primary technical point of contact between Engineering, vendors, and the Authority
  • Draft formal technical communications to vendors and the Authority as directed
  • Coordinate training sessions at Authority sites and ensure all electrical documentation, drawings, and equipment are available and current
  • Collaborate closely with the Engineering Department to address trainee questions related to schematics, troubleshooting, and system functionality
  • Ensure timely delivery of all contractual technical training deliverables to the Authority
  • Assist in curriculum development and scheduling for new railcar and equipment contracts
