  • Coordinate with contractors, engineering, utilities, and agencies on field conflicts, and attend pre-construction, progress, and closeout meetings.
  • Document daily progress with reports, photos, and redlines, and verify contractor quantities for invoice review.
  • Report deficiencies and unsafe or nonconforming work, and help resolve restoration, property owner, and permit issues.
  • Support as-builts, test documentation, punch lists, and closeout.

  • Inspect aerial fiber placement, including strand tension, lashing/overlashing, ADSS, sag, bonding and grounding, risers, slack storage, and splice enclosures.
  • Coordinate make-ready sequencing with pole owners and attachers, and track pole status in NJUNS.

Skills/Requirements of a successful candidate include but are not limited to:

  • 5+ years of experience in telecom, fiber, utility, or civil construction inspection experience (underground and/or aerial).
  • Knowledge of underground methods (trenching, directional drilling, conduit, restoration) and right-of-way practices.
  • Knowledge of make-ready and aerial methods, NESC clearances, and joint-use standards.
  • Ability to read construction drawings, permit plans, route maps, and as-builts.
  • Familiarity with utility locates, traffic control, and site safety.
  • Strong documentation and communication skills; Microsoft Office, mobile reporting, and GIS tools preferred.
  • Valid driver’s license, background check, and drug screen required.
  • Able to work outdoors in all conditions, lift 50 lbs., climb and kneel, and work after hours as needed.
  • Underground fiber inspection experience on municipal, utility, broadband, or transportation projects, including directional drilling, open trench, and conduit work preferred
  • Familiarity with VDOT/local right-of-way permits, Miss Utility/811, and utility owner coordination.
  • Make-ready and aerial fiber inspection experience on joint-use pole lines, including NJUNS workflows; NESC Joint-Use training a plus.
