Configuration & Engineering Change Manager

The Configuration & Engineering Change Manager will be responsible for establishing, implementing, and managing configuration management (CM) and engineering change control (ECC) processes for the ECWE Stations, Rail, and Systems (SRS) Project. This role ensures that all design, technical, and system configurations are accurately defined, documented, controlled, and traceable throughout the project lifecycle. The manager will collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, contractors, consultants, and stakeholders to ensure engineering changes are assessed, approved, and implemented in compliance with project requirements, Metrolinx standards, and industry best practices.

• Coordinate with design, construction, systems integration, quality, and document control teams to maintain configuration integrity across all disciplines.
• Establish and oversee systems and procedures for configuration identification, version control, baseline management, and change traceability.
• Manage the Engineering Change Request (ECR) and Engineering Change Notice (ECN) processes, including logging, impact analysis, approvals, and implementation tracking.
• Develop and maintain the project’s Configuration Management Plan and Engineering Change Control Plan in alignment with Metrolinx and contractual requirements.
• Provide training, guidance, and oversight to project team members on configuration and engineering change procedures.
• Prepare and present reports, metrics, and dashboards on configuration and change management performance for senior leadership and client review.
• Conduct regular audits and reviews to verify compliance with CM and ECC requirements.
• Maintain configuration baselines for stations, rail infrastructure, and systems, ensuring all changes are properly reviewed, approved, and incorporated into project documentation.

• Ensure alignment of engineering changes with project schedules, cost impacts, safety requirements, and quality standards.

• Excellent organizational, analytical, and problem-solving skills with strong attention to detail.
• Strong knowledge of configuration management standards (e.g., ISO 10007, EIA-649, CMMI) and engineering change processes.
• Skilled in change impact analysis (cost, schedule, safety, risk).
• Leadership and ownership of processes across a multi-stakeholder environment.
• PMP, CMII, or similar professional certification is an asset.
• Experience with rail, transit, or systems integration projects highly preferred.
• Ability to balance technical rigor with practical project delivery needs.
• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Project Management, or a related discipline; advanced certifications in configuration management or systems engineering considered an asset.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work collaboratively across multidisciplinary teams.
• Proficiency in configuration/document management tools and software (e.g., Aconex, ProjectWise, SharePoint, or equivalent).
• Minimum 8+ years of experience in configuration management, engineering change control, or systems engineering within large-scale infrastructure, rail/transit, or construction projects.
