Job description

As a leading provider of construction management, outside plant damage assessment & recovery, business outsourcing and consulting services, PRG offers services within the cable, telephony, construction and utility industries, including:

• Back Office Processing
• Technical Support
• Network Infrastructure
• Project and Program Management
• Outside Plant Damage Cost Recovery Services

With 20+ offices and 825+ employees nationwide, we deliver industry-leading solutions with speed, accuracy, and expertise.

We are seeking a highly skilled GIS Construction Coordinator to lead the engineering coordination and quality control of large-scale FTTH and OSP fiber deployments. This role sits at the intersection of GIS, engineering, and field execution — ensuring highly constructible, permit-ready, and client-approved design deliverables from concept through final as-builts.

This position is ideal for a fiber design professional who understands GIS platforms, OSP architecture, and real-world constructability — and who can confidently manage engineering vendors while driving quality and schedule performance.

Engineering & Design Coordination

• Lead the end-to-end OSP engineering workflow for FTTH deployments from initial design through as-built completion.
• Manage external engineering vendors to ensure timely, accurate, and highly constructible design packages.
• Develop and improve engineering process flows to accelerate design cycles and reduce rework.
• Review and approve design packages prior to client submission.

GIS & Technical Oversight

• Utilize GIS platforms (3-GIS preferred) and AutoCAD to review and validate fiber network designs.
• QA/QC fiber construction drawings, permit drawings, single-line diagrams (SLDs), splice sheets, and Bills of Materials (BOMs).
• Ensure compliance with client OSP design standards and municipal requirements.
• Identify routing conflicts, constructability risks, and permitting constraints early in the design phase.
• Research and resolve cable path, placement, and right-of-way challenges.

Quality Control & Compliance

• Establish and maintain high-quality design standards across all engineering deliverables.
• Troubleshoot equipment, layout, and design-stage discrepancies.
• Track revisions, corrective actions, and updates through final approval.
• Partner with field construction teams to resolve design-to-field conflicts.

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Coordinate with deployment, permitting, construction, and client teams to ensure alignment on scope and schedule.
• Communicate technical issues clearly across engineering and field stakeholders.
• Support network relocations, upgrades, and new development builds.
• Represent engineering progress, risks, and milestones to internal and client leadership.
• Bachelor’s degree in a technical field or equivalent practical experience.
• 5+ years of experience supporting FTTH or OSP fiber infrastructure projects.
• Experience supporting or constructing outside plant (OSP) and inside plant (ISP) fiber networks.
• Strong understanding of fiber construction workflows from design through deployment.

Preferred qualifications:

• Expertise in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), 3-GIS, and AutoCAD drafting capabilities.
• Experience using QGIS and MyMaps.
• Comprehensive knowledge of Fiber Optic network equipment, various OSP architectures, splice operations, configuration, and overall system design.
• Knowledge of BOM creation, including material research for different markets and OSP architectures.
• Knowledge of SS creation and an ability to identify SS issues that originate in various design stages.
• Ability to create and review Fiber Construction Drawings for various architectures.
• Knowledge of ROW/easements for various municipalities and experience with local city‑utility permitting.
• Knowledge of SLD creation at the F1 and F2 level projects.
• Excellent troubleshooting and problem‑solving skills.
• Proficiency in Google G‑Suite, including drive, docs, sheets, drawing, and presentation.
• Intermediate skills in Microsoft Office programs, including Excel.
• Intermediate working knowledge of Google Earth/Maps.
• Exemplary communication skills with excellent presentation skills. Ability to represent projects from business, product, and technical perspectives.

We offer competitive hourly pay ($32-$38/hr) based on experience along with a comprehensive benefits package, including:

• Medical, dental, and vision coverage for employees and dependents
• 401(k) retirement plan, with company match after 1 year
• Short‑term disability coverage after 1 year
• Paid time off and holidays
• Additional perks such as company‑paid life insurance, and other supplemental insurances available
