Overview

We are seeking a Fiber Engineer with strong experience in fiber network design, routing, inside plant fiber assignment, and capacity planning. This role is part of a regional engineering team responsible for creating and maintaining fiber design maps, assigning fiber routes, supporting construction projects, and coordinating network augmentation work.

This role is not construction management / field build / OSP-focused. We are specifically looking for candidates with inside plant fiber design and allocation experience.


Key Responsibilities

  • Participate in project kick-off meetings for new fiber builds (backbone, lateral, riser).

  • Design backbone and lateral fiber routes and create fiber design maps (A-to-Z).

  • Assign fiber through inside plant demarcation panels and provide direction to Construction teams.

  • Create requisitions and manage vendor PO approval workflows.

  • Submit change management documentation and follow proper field execution procedures.

  • Provide final engineering deliverables including DLRs, fiber assignment records, and test documentation.

  • Close out projects in appropriate systems and validate documentation accuracy.

  • Review and approve vendor invoices associated with assigned projects.

  • Coordinate daily with Fiber Construction Managers and field personnel.

  • Create and manage work orders for expansion and overbuild initiatives.

  • Analyze network capacity reports and plan augments for heavily utilized fiber routes.

  • Participate in on-call rotation for fiber outages and emergency response.

  • Work with NOC and Field Operations to isolate, dispatch, and restore fiber impairments.

  • Maintain accurate and current network records across internal systems.


Qualifications

Required

  • High school diploma or equivalent.

  • 1+ years of fiber engineering, network design, fiber assignment, or construction support experience.

  • Experience with inside plant fiber layouts, panels, and demarcation practices.

  • Familiarity with GIS-based mapping, fiber path design documentation, and records management.

  • Valid driver's license.

Preferred

  • Associate's degree or technical degree; Bachelor's degree in Civil, Electrical, Construction, or related Engineering field strongly preferred.

  • Experience with outside plant (OSP) construction methods (aerial/underground) is beneficial.

  • Working knowledge of NESC, NEC, and OSHA standards.


Skills & Competencies

  • Strong organizational and documentation skills.

  • Ability to manage multiple projects and shifting priorities.

  • Proficient in Microsoft Excel, Visio, PowerPoint, Word, and internal tracking tools.

  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills.

  • Ability to work independently, yet collaborate effectively with Engineering, Construction, and Operations teams.

  • Positive, proactive approach to problem-solving.

  • PMP certification is a plus, but not required.


Ideal Candidate Profile

You will be successful in this role if you:

  • Have hands-on fiber assignment / ISP routing experience.

  • Can interpret fiber maps, splice diagrams, and capacity charts.

  • Enjoy coordinating across engineering, field operations, and provisioning teams.

  • Are detail-driven and thrive in a structured but fast-paced environment.
