Thanks TomBoyd, I have done.

Does anyone have any first hand knowledge of the role from doing the job or from working at NR and being familiar with it?

What sort of TO is it? I don't know if there are different types, the only one I know of is the S&T version inside signal boxes.

Hi, It's Technical Officer (Track).

I would expect them to be working with Tampers, Stressing and any job that requires an amount of accurate measurement.
However you will also be a "Person to Blame" if you get it wrong.

I worked as an STO about 8 years ago now. There will be night work I was 1 in 4 nights and 2 in 4 weekends. It may have changed a bit more with more red zone working etc. This is when you will do majority of your work: Tamping along with the TQS, stressing, platform gauging, twist checks, track gauge checks etc. It is the techie stuff more as opposed to the gangs which is construction.
