Job Description:
Parsons
is seeking a highly skilled

Requirements Engineer

Technical Assurance

to support a major infrastructure project: the Gateway
Hudson Tunnel Project. This role is ideal for a detail-oriented professional who excels
in requirements engineering, verification and validation (V&V), and compliance for
complex rail infrastructure projects.
You will play a critical technical role in ensuring that system and project
requirements are accurately captured, validated, traced, and maintained throughout the lifecycle of the project-from design through construction and commissioning. Your work will directly support the delivery of a safe, reliable, and regulatory
compliant tunnel system.
Program background
The Gateway Program is the most urgent infrastructure program in the country - a comprehensive set of rail investments that will improve commuter and intercity services, add needed resiliency and, in its later stages, create new capacity between Newark, New Jersey and New York City, the busiest section of the Northeast Corridor (NEC). The first phase of the Gateway Program includes the Hudson Tunnel Project (HTP), which includes the construction of a new two-track tunnel under the Hudson River connecting to Penn Station New York as well as the full rehabilitation of the existing 110-year-old North River Tunnel. The Gateway Development Commission (GDC), established through bi-state legislation, is responsible for the financing and development of the Hudson Tunnel Project.
Job Description
