  • Conduct fiber troubleshooting, remediation, continuity verification, and acceptance testing.

  • Assist with fiber turn-up, commissioning, and verification of newly installed or repaired fiber routes.

  • Support work at ILA huts, telecommunications shelters, splice points, and other network infrastructure locations as required.

  • Maintain accurate splice records, fiber assignments, test results, and project documentation.

  • Follow applicable safety procedures, quality standards, and project specifications.

  • Travel to assigned project sites and work effectively with field crews, project managers, and client representatives.

Required Qualifications

  • Experience using OTDR equipment to test fiber and troubleshoot network issues.

  • Ability to interpret test results and identify common fiber faults and excessive loss.

  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality workmanship.

  • Ability and willingness to travel to project locations throughout the United States.

  • Ability to work independently and as part of a field installation or remediation team.

  • Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record if required for the assigned project or rental vehicle.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience splicing high-count fiber cables, including 864-count or greater.

  • Ribbon fiber splicing experience.

  • Experience with optical loss testing, OLTS, optical power meters, and fiber characterization.

  • Previous work in ILA huts, remote telecommunications shelters, or optical transport facilities.
