Job description

Lead Low Voltage Fiber Technician - Spartanburg, SC

Join Next Level Technician as a Lead Low Voltage Fiber Technician in Spartanburg, SC! Earn $22-$35/hr, enjoy weekly pay, benefits, and the opportunity to build your career on a long-term data center project with one of our premier partners. We're looking for technicians with a solid fiber foundation who are eager to continue growing their skills.

Responsibilities:

• Pull, route, dress, and label fiber optic cable throughout a new construction data center
• Terminate fiber connectors including LC, SC, MPO, and other connector types
• Perform fusion splicing and maintain splice documentation
• Test fiber using OTDRs, OLTS, power meters, and light sources
• Troubleshoot fiber connectivity and resolve deficiencies
• Install fiber trunks, jumpers, patch panels, cassettes, racks, and fiber enclosures
• Read and interpret blueprints and fiber routing drawings
• Maintain accurate labeling and documentation throughout the project
• Follow all OSHA and jobsite safety requirements while maintaining clean, professional installations

Requirements:

• 2+ years of commercial fiber optic installation experience
• Experience pulling, terminating, testing, and/or fusion splicing fiber optic cable
• Foundation in the full fiber installation process with a willingness to continue learning
• Ability to read blueprints and installation drawings
• OSHA 10 Certification (Required)
• Valid Driver's License (must have ID available for data center access)
• Basic low voltage hand tools
• Full PPE (hard hat, safety glasses, high-visibility vest, steel-toe boots)

Why Work with Next Level Technician in Spartanburg, SC?

• Weekly Pay: Get paid every week, no waiting
• Competitive Wages: $22-$28/hr based on your experience and skillset
• PTO, medical benefits, sign-on & referral bonuses
• Contract-to-Hire Opportunity: Build a long-term career with Premiere as they continue expanding their Spartanburg operations
• Career Growth: Gain experience on a large-scale data center project with opportunities to continue advancing your fiber skillset
• Dedicated Recruiter Support: Work with recruiters who understand the fiber industry and your career goals
• Consistent Hours: Approximately 50-hour work weeks with overtime opportunities

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

One of the biggest reasons candidates succeed here is the Project Manager you'll be working with. Kevin is a straight-shooter who values honesty over exaggeration. If there's an area of fiber where you're still developing your skills, be upfront about it. He's much more interested in finding technicians with a strong foundation, a great attitude, and the eagerness to learn than someone who claims to know everything.

In fact, he's currently training one of our technicians who was completely transparent during the interview about where he needed additional experience. If you're strong in pulling and terminating but have only limited fusion splicing experience-or vice versa-we still encourage you to apply. If you have the fundamentals and the desire to grow, this team will invest in you.
