    System Validation Engineer

    Alstom Transport Deutschland - Salzgitter, Germany

    Type tests for traction systems A new train is being introduced and will soon enter service with the end client. The train-level type tests must be planned, executed and documented to identify and correct the possible discrepencies with the functional specifications. In the validation team I am in charge of the traction system. This project is also used to introduce in Alstom a new way to trace the tests from the functional requirements to the tests reports using the management tool DOORS.

    End of study internship

    Alstom Power - Baden, Switzerland

    Development and roll-out of project performance forecast tools and process: The KPIs used in Alstom Power gas-turbine projects measure the past performance. The aim of this internship was to use the same input data to estimate the impact of projects planning changes (re-scheduling, budget changes) on the KPI at a later date. The 6 sigma process was applied to this project.
