Job description

Location: Fully Remote (Must reside within Washington or Oregon Employment Type: Full-Time Salary Range: $85,000 – $120,000 per year (Dependent on experience)

About the Role

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Construction Manager to oversee telecommunications infrastructure projects (Fiber/Wireless/OSP) from a fully remote capacity. In this role, you will be the bridge between field crews, engineering teams, and internal stakeholders, ensuring projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards.

Because this position is 100% remote, we are looking for a self-starter who possesses exceptional communication skills and the ability to manage complex construction timelines without daily in-person supervision. You must be comfortable managing workflows digitally while maintaining strong relationships with vendors and field teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Project Oversight: Manage the end-to-end lifecycle of telecom construction projects (e.g., fiber builds, small cell, cell tower modifications) from planning to closeout.


• Vendor Management: remotely coordinate and monitor third-party general contractors (GCs) and vendors to ensure adherence to scope, safety standards, and construction specifications.


• Schedule & Budget: Track project milestones and financials rigorously; identify variances early and implement corrective actions to keep projects on track.


• Digital Reporting: Review closeout packages, redlines, and test results (OTDR/PIM) digitally to ensure compliance before final approval.


• Communication Hub: Act as the primary point of contact for project updates, hosting regular video conference calls with stakeholders to mitigate risks and resolve blockers.


• Permitting & Compliance: Oversee the status of municipal permits and rights-of-way (ROW) applications, ensuring field teams have the necessary documentation to proceed.

Required Qualifications

• Experience: 3-5+ years of experience in telecommunications construction management (OSP, ISP, or Wireless).


• Remote Competency: Proven track record of working effectively in a remote or distributed team environment.


• Technical Knowledge: Deep understanding of construction drawings, fiber splicing, directional drilling, aerial construction, or wireless site integration.


• Software Proficiency: Strong proficiency in project management tools (e.g., MS Project, Smartsheet, Sitetracker, or Fuze and Google Earth/GIS platforms.


• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or equivalent industry experience.

Critical Soft Skills for Remote Success

• Master Communicator: You can translate complex field issues into clear, concise written emails and verbal updates for non-technical stakeholders.


• Self-Motivated: You do not wait for instructions. You own your schedule, prioritize tasks independently, and drive projects forward proactively.


• Time Management: You are organized and disciplined, capable of juggling multiple project sites across different time zones without dropping the ball.


• Tech-Savvy: You are comfortable troubleshooting your own remote set-up and adopting new collaboration software quickly.
