October 17, 2023 Peter Torrellas Begins New Role as President

Torrellas brings his 25 years of experience to the CTS team.

Cubic Transportation Systems (CTS), a division of Cubic Corporation, announced that Peter Torrellas has officially begun his role as Senior Vice President of Cubic Corporation and President of Cubic Transportation Systems (CTS) following former president Jeff Lowinger’s retirement on October 13, 2023.

As CTS’ new president, Torrellas is responsible for leading CTS’ strategic vision, growing its customer base, enhancing partnerships with existing customers and building on the long history of technology innovation around the world.

Prior to joining Cubic, Torrellas was the President of the Connected Communities business unit at Parsons where he was responsible for strategic growth, business execution and operations across a portfolio that included Rail, Utilities, Oil & Gas, Aviation, Mining, Intelligent Traffic, Smart Vehicles, Facilities and “Parsons X,” the digital service and solution business of Parsons across the world. Prior to Parsons, he was Managing Partner for Digital Cities and Infrastructure at Siemens Advanta and head of Smart Cities and Communities at Siemens Smart Infrastructure.

Torrellas has led major digital transformation initiatives across mobility, buildings, energy and water infrastructures. His passion for cities and infrastructure began after successfully designing, integrating and delivering a Public Address and Customer Information system for New York City’s subway – a mega project that included the train he rode as a child.

An expert in the industry, Torrellas is a recognized thought leader in technology implementations and has collaborated with the United Nations, World Bank Group, United States Conference of Mayors, National Governors Association, National Academies of Sciences, International City and County Managers Association, The Brookings Institution, Harvard and many others.

“Peter brings expertise across a diverse infrastructure portfolio, positioning him as a great fit for Cubic and the right leader to take CTS forward” said Cubic Corporation CEO Steve Slijepcevic.

During his three-month transition with retiring CTS President Jeff Lowinger, Torrellas had the opportunity to connect with hundreds of CUBES around the world and meet many of the company’s customers.
