About Jacques Ourfalian

I’m a globally experienced Systems Engineer and Interface Manager with nearly 9 years of hands-on project delivery across Asia and Latin America, specializing in urban transit and rail systems.My experience spans all major project phases: Tender Design, Tender Evaluation, Detailed Design, Installation, Testing & Commissioning, Trial Running, O&M support, Feasibility Studies, and Bid Management.I’ve worked on both greenfield and brownfield railway projects, from Jakarta to Medellín, supporting full lifecycle delivery from early design through to operational handover.In my current role on the BIM-enabled Metro de la 80 (M80) tramway project, I serve as Interface Manager and support transversal disciplines including Integration, Requirements, Configuration, and O&M.Previously, I supported the Jabodebek LRT project (Lines 1–3) — a CBTC GoA3 driverless metro system — from early design through final operational handover. I focused on Interface & Integration Management and technical coordination of subsystems including Power Supply, CBTC Signalling, SCADA, Telecoms, Platform Screen Doors (PSD), and Third Rail.I speak five languages fluently — English, French, Spanish, Arabic, and Armenian — and have working proficiency in Bahasa Indonesia. I thrive in multicultural, technically complex environments where systems integration is key to successful delivery.
