Job description

Position Overview

If you've run fiber crews in apartment buildings, you know the hard part isn't the fiber. It's everything around it: the conduit that was supposed to be clear, the access that fell through, the splicer waiting on a pathway that's two days behind. As our MDU Fiber Field Supervisor, that's yours to solve. You'll lead the foremen behind our proofing, inside wiring, and splicing crews, plus subcontractors, on multi-dwelling unit (MDU) and Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) builds that connect the people who live there.
