  • Support emergency response and ongoing network maintenance activities as needed.

Qualifications
  • 5+ years of experience in fiber optic installation, splicing, and testing.

  • Proven leadership experience in the field, including managing crews and mentoring technicians.

  • Strong knowledge of fiber network design, construction, and troubleshooting.

  • Proficiency with fiber testing equipment (OTDR, power meter, light source, etc.).

  • Familiarity with relevant codes and standards (e.g. BICSI, TIA/EIA).

  • Excellent problem-solving and communication skills.

  • Valid driver’s license and willingness to travel to job sites as needed.

  • Industry & Safety certifications (OSHA, CPR/First Aid, FOA, ETA, BICSI) are a plus.
