Rail Track Construction Trainee in the Network 2027

About the job

We are Deutsche Bahn. Millions of passengers travel with us every day and we transport enormous quantities of goods – nationwide as well as in neighbouring Europe. Too often, we also disappoint. That is why we are working intensively on a better railway. For this, we need power and you! We are one of the most diverse employers in Germany. Every year, we look for around 5,000 trainees in 50 different training professions who want to make the railway a little better with us every day. Join in: We offer you attractive benefits, a fixed contact person, and a great team by your side. And after successful training, you have excellent chances of being taken on!

If you want to work outdoors instead of sitting inside and are fascinated by trains and technology – then training in the rail track construction sector is just right for you!

From 1 August 2027, we are looking for you for the 3-year training as a rail track construction worker (m/f/d) for DB InfraGO AG in Koblenz. The vocational school is located in Frankfurt am Main in the 1st year of training and from the 2nd year in Ludwigshafen. The training workshop is also in Ludwigshafen.

This is what awaits you in your training:

• You work with your team outdoors on construction sites on our tracks
• Together you lay new rails and points, check everything for damage and replace broken parts
• With the help of modern machines, you renew the ballast under the tracks
• You pay close attention to all measurements – so that trains run smoothly and safely later
• During your training as a rail track construction worker, you are already an important part of the team and ensure every day that our trains run reliably

Your profile:

• You have (soon) successfully completed school and your school leaving certificate is recognised in Germany
• Your German language skills correspond to at least the B2 level
• Sitting at a desk is not for you – you prefer to work outdoors
• You are motivated and reliable
• You enjoy teamwork and like to get stuck in
• Different workplaces and working hours as well as night shifts are a welcome change for you

For this training, an aptitude test awaits you as part of the selection process. On our career page, you can find out everything about the background, the procedure, and the ideal preparation.

This is important to us:

Our aim is to offer all candidates the same opportunities to join us if they have the same aptitude. We actively promote diversity and togetherness in our teams. We appreciate every application, regardless of gender, nationality, ethnic and social origin, religion, belief, disability, age, duration of unemployment, as well as sexual orientation and identity.
