Subway maintenance technician (civil engineering track)

The tracks with a 30-ton train running 180 trains a day are always placed under harsh conditions. It is the job of a subway maintenance technician (railway maintenance) to quickly find, repair and construct the wear of the tracks, the gap in the rail width, and the subsidence of ballast (gravel). What is important is the "eyes" and "ears" that do not miss any minor changes. Skilled skills that make full use of the five senses is to protect the safety of train operation.

Visual inspection on foot is required for rails and tunnel inspection. Walk like an eye dish every day, and check the rails for deflections or cracks, loose fitting bolts are loose, and there is no abnormality in the upset during operation. The more you experience, the more you will develop your ability to find something unusual.

If it is found that rails and sleepers need to be replaced, or ballasts should be repaired, it will be done from the last train to the first train. Among them, large-scale rail replacement is a flower-shaped business. When you finish late night work and see the train running without any trouble in the morning, you will be able to get a sense of accomplishment.

When requesting construction from an external contractor, the facility ward staff will be present to confirm safety and supervise the work contents. We will manage the construction with the support of the staff who know the site, such as checking the last train and the first train, arranging parts.

While experiencing patrols, inspections, and construction, etc., it is also possible to acquire qualifications such as "technical engineer", "track construction manager", and "qualification such as driver's license for special vehicles". Please take on the challenge of becoming a person who can rely on others.

The safety of the railway tracks is monitored 24 hours a day. In a work system that takes over duties like relays, the body is capital, so daily health management is important. You may not be used to it at first, but as you gain experience, you will be able to get the hang of your work and feel proud of being responsible for track safety.
