About The Role


The CoE for Mobility & Digital Infrastructure (CoE4M) leads Ferrovial Innovation's work at the intersection of data, technology, and mobility - spanning connected and autonomous transport, digital tolling, mobility platforms, AI-enabled infrastructure, and emerging transport technologies incl. physical and embodied AI. It also provides specific support to Cintra, Ferrovial’s concession division providing Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and tolling technical support.


This is a mid-level role requiring equal emphasis on self-led technical and analytical delivery and collaborative facilitation across teams, business units, and external partners. The role covers both mobility innovation development and ITS/tolling technical support. Programming and AI-augmented working is the default method, not an afterthought.


This position will report to the ITS Lead or directly to the Head of CoE. From time-to-time, as needed, the role may be assigned to specific projects that require a more complex matrix management structure.

The working place is as per above, but the role may require travelling during short periods of time to other places nationally or internationally. There might also be opportunity/requirement for 2 – 6 month long secondments in other territories, including the US.
