• Provide technical supervision of C-ITS/C-V2X system deployment, integration, testing, commissioning, and operational readiness activities.
• Review and recommend approval of Functional System Design Documents (FSDD), Interface Control Documents (ICD), use case definitions, communications architecture, C-ITS service specifications, and system integration submissions.
• Review and approve C-ITS integration, interoperability, validation, and system test plans, including FAT, SAT, UAT, end-to-end testing, coverage testing, performance testing, cybersecurity testing, and field operational testing.
• Ensure the Contractor's compliance with the Contract Documents, approved standards, interoperability requirements, and accepted C-ITS implementation methodologies.
• Review and approve technical submittals related to RSUs, OBUs, C-V2X communications infrastructure, edge computing platforms, security credential management systems, and telecommunications interfaces.
• Monitor the implementation of C-ITS services and applications, including vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), infrastructure-to-vehicle (I2V), road safety, traffic efficiency, traveler information, work zone management, and connected corridor applications.
• Coordinate integration activities between the C-ITS platform, ATMS, field ITS devices, telecommunications networks, cloud platforms, and external stakeholder systems.
• Verify compliance with applicable standards and specifications, including C-Roads, ETSI, SAE, IEEE, ISO, CEN, and 3GPP standards as applicable to the project.
• Witness installation, configuration, calibration, and testing of RSUs, OBU platforms, edge devices, and communications equipment.
• Support the Resident Engineer in evaluating Variation Orders, Change Orders, software enhancements, and modifications affecting C-ITS functionality and system integration.
• Review system logs, test results, interoperability reports, issue registers, and corrective action plans throughout implementation and testing phases.
• Attend C-ITS related meetings and prepare technical comments, recommendations, and meeting records.
• Review correspondence and prepare responses for signature.
• Maintain status logs for deployment, integration, testing, certification, and issue resolution activities.
• Provide punch lists and final acceptance recommendations for C-ITS deliverables and services.
• Review and approve as-built documentation, operation manuals, maintenance manuals, configuration records, and final system handover documentation.

Required Skills

• Minimum 7 years of experience in ITS, transportation systems, telecommunications, system integration, or smart mobility projects.
• Minimum 5 years of experience in C-ITS, Connected Vehicle, V2X, C-V2X, or cooperative mobility deployments.
