We are looking for Fiber I&R Technicians to perform residential FTTH (Fiber-to-the-Home) installations, service activations, repairs, and troubleshooting.

Experienced fiber technicians are encouraged to apply — but fiber experience is NOT always required!

HAVE THE TRUCK. HAVE THE TOOLS. HAVE THE WORK ETHIC.

NO FIBER EXPERIENCE? THAT'S OKAY!

Training may cover areas such as:

• FTTH installation procedures
• Fiber optic fundamentals
• Fiber testing and troubleshooting
• NID/ONT installation
• Customer equipment and service activation
• Drop installation and routing
• Fiber handling and proper installation techniques
• Safety procedures and job-site requirements
• Work-order documentation

• Quality and productivity expectations

We can teach the technical skills. We need people who are willing to learn, work hard, and take pride in what they do.

Previous experience in cable, telecommunications, electrical, low-voltage, satellite installation, security systems, construction, utility work, or other field-service trades is a plus.

Your own reliable truck, van, or SUV suitable for the work
Ladder rack capable of safely carrying the required ladders
