  • Support the planning and documentation of fiber installation, splicing, and testing work
  • Track work activities, infrastructure updates, and materials using internal systems
  • Assist with network restoration documentation and updates during outage events
  • Occasionally support installation or maintenance activities in data centers or remote facilities

What We’re Looking For

  • A detail-oriented professional who values accurate documentation and mapping
  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple updates and records
  • Clear communication when coordinating with engineers, field teams, and vendors
  • Interest in telecommunications, fiber networks, or infrastructure mapping
  • Willingness to occasionally work in the field to verify infrastructure and support network operations
  • A collaborative team member who contributes to reliable network operations

What You’ll Bring

Required

  • 1+ year of experience working with GIS software or spatial mapping systems
  • Experience creating, editing, and maintaining spatial data and maps
  • Familiarity with GIS concepts such as layers, attributes, and geospatial data management
  • Ability to learn telecommunications network documentation practices
  • Basic understanding of infrastructure mapping or utility networks
  • Valid driver’s license for company vehicle use
  • Ability to lift up to 50 pounds occasionally
  • Willingness to participate in an on-call rotation for network support events

Preferred
