Pioneering in America, from the first mile to the last. This is what drives us!

For more than 160 years, Siemens has been an integral provider of infrastructure, electrification, and transportation solutions in the United States. Automation’s impact on the railway industry is second only to the effects of digitalization. Combine them and the results are transformative! We work at the leading edge of this movement, applying our proven expertise in digitalization to rail infrastructure and automation.

Our innovative solutions deliver greater safety, punctuality, reliability, and sustainability across the line, all while reducing costs for mass transit and freight transportation systems. We are continuously developing new answers for rail automation – often to questions that haven’t been asked yet.

We have an immediate opening for an experienced Mechanical Engineer / Production Engineer at our new Lexington, North Carolina Facility . Your primary role will be to provide engineering support in the fabrication of rail vehicle carshell structures and the assembly of rail bogies to carbodies. Must be available to travel and partner with Design and Production Engineers at the Siemens Sacramento, CA facility.
