This role supports large-scale rural broadband and fiber expansion projects, ensuring fiber can be safely and efficiently attached to existing utility infrastructure. You will work closely with field-collected data, specialized design and pole loading software, and industry standards to deliver clear, actionable design packages for construction teams., * Interpret aerial fiber optic route proposals and incorporate them into comprehensive OSP joint use designs, using maps, photos, and field data. * Import collected utility pole data, including measurements and photographs, into OSP design tools and organize the information for efficient analysis. * Review existing pole data to identify height clearance violations and propose make-ready requirements to correct those issues. * Perform sag and tension calculations, evaluate mid-span clearances, and conduct pole loading analysis to ensure structural integrity and compliance with applicable codes. * Complete detailed aerial OSP design packages using Adobe, GIS, Excel, AutoCAD, and industry-specific computer software with minimal direction. * Use 3D modeling and pole loading analysis software to validate the structural capacity of utility poles for new fiber attachments. * Check pole loading results and clearance conditions against NESC codes and other relevant standards to confirm safe and compliant designs. * Develop and deliver clear maps and documentation that specify required make-ready work for each utility pole along the assigned route. * Review photos and measurements uploaded by field crews in a data portal or website and translate this information into precise design decisions. * Focus on aerial joint use design for pre-defined routes, determining how fiber can be attached to existing utility poles without performing route planning or underground design work. * Comprehend and follow written procedural documents and verbal guidance related to OSP design processes, standards, and quality expectations. * Collaborate with internal stakeholders as needed to clarify design requirements, resolve data discrepancies, and ensure timely completion of project deliverables. * Maintain organized records of design files, calculations, and make-ready recommendations to support review, approval, and construction activities., Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI): We may use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to support parts of our hiring process, including sourcing, screening, and evaluating candidates.
