DevOps Enablement for
Next-Gen Rail Control Systems
IQ helped our client adopt modern DevOps practices and container orchestration via Kubernetes to power their next generation train control platform.
With over $4 billion in revenue and more than a century of expertise in mobility innovation, this client is a global leader in freight and metro rail systems. Their products are known for their safety, performance, and reliability, and they continue to push the industry forward with next-generation train control technologies that support their mission of improving transportation infrastructure worldwide.
As part of launching a new train control platform, the client moved toward modern DevOps and Kubernetes-driven orchestration. But with minimal CI/CD experience on the internal team, development velocity and system reliability were at stake.

Deployment
IQ Inc. partnered with the client to rapidly upskill the team, implement proven pipeline practices, and lay a resilient foundation for scalable, high-performance deployment by deploying an experienced DevOps engineer to work directly with the client’s development team.
Our engineer resolved blocking issues within the CI/CD pipeline and helped define architectural standards for Kubernetes deployments. Simultaneously, our engineer mentored key members of the client’s team – participating in planning discussions, pairing on implementation, and transferring practical knowledge across DevOps workflows.
Results & Impacts
- Accelerated development timelines for the new train control platform.
- Upskilled internal engineers, enabling independent scaling and maintenance.
- Built a sustainable DevOps foundation for the client’s future innovation and product expansion.
