What is a fibre surveyor?

A Fibre Surveyor is responsible for assessing and planning the installation of fibre optic networks. They conduct on-site surveys, gather data on existing infrastructure, and identify potential obstacles to network deployment. The role involves working with maps, GIS tools, and design software to create efficient fibre routes. Fibre Surveyors also liaise with engineers, local authorities, and utility companies to ensure compliance with regulations. Their work is essential for delivering high-speed internet and communication networks efficiently and cost-effectively.

What does a fibre surveyor do?

A typical day for a Fibre Surveyor involves conducting site visits to assess proposed fibre optic routes, gathering accurate measurements and data, and creating detailed site drawings or digital maps. You will frequently liaise with engineers, local authorities, and construction teams to ensure your surveys align with project goals and regulatory requirements. Most days combine fieldwork with office-based activities such as report writing and map production, offering variety and the opportunity to work both independently and as part of a project team. The role is dynamic and can involve travel, making adaptability and organizational skills important for success.

What skills and qualifications are needed to be a fibre surveyor?

To succeed as a Fibre Surveyor, you should have a solid understanding of telecommunications infrastructure, mapping, and surveying, often supported by relevant qualifications such as a background in civil engineering or geospatial studies. Familiarity with GIS software, CAD tools, GPS surveying equipment, and fibre optic network design standards is highly valuable, and some positions may require certifications like NRSWA or Fibre Optic Association credentials. Excellent attention to detail, strong problem-solving abilities, and effective communication are crucial soft skills. These competencies are essential for accurately planning network routes, coordinating with teams and stakeholders, and ensuring efficient project delivery in fibre optic installations.

Is fiber surveyor in high demand?

Traveling Fiber Specialist

Team LINX

Shreveport, LA • On-site

$40 - $45/hr

Per diem

Medical, Dental, Vision, Retirement, PTO

Posted 15 days ago

Key responsibilities

  • Independently perform ribbon and loose tube fusion splicing, build and dress splice enclosures and Fiber Distribution Frames (FDFs), and install Line Interface Units (LIUs) and MPO panels.

  • Perform fiber testing using OTDR, OLTS, optical power meters, and VFLs, validate results against customer acceptance criteria, and diagnose and resolve fiber issues.

  • Read and interpret fiber drawings and rack elevations, develop material lists, and execute fiber deployments for enterprise, hyperscale, and AI cluster infrastructure projects.

Job description

LINX is hiring Fiber Specialists for its travel-based team that deploys to enterprise, hyperscale, and hyperscale data center builds across the country. If you can independently run ribbon and loose tube fusion splicing, validate your own work against customer acceptance criteria on OTDR and OLTS, and you're looking for consistent, high-volume fiber work rather than one job site indefinitely, this role is built for you.

You'll be on the leading edge of the infrastructure buildout driving AI and GPU cluster deployment, working alongside some of the most technically demanding fiber environments in the industry today.

Pay: $40.00 to $45.00/hour

Where This Role Fits at LINX

The Fiber Team is a parallel specialist track within LINX’s low voltage field structure. It sits alongside, not on top of, the standard Technician through Superintendent ladder. Every role on the Fiber Team specializes in fiber splicing. 

Fiber Technician --> Fiber Specialist → Sr. Fiber Specialist

What You'll Be Doing

Fusion Splicing and Fiber Infrastructure

  • Independently perform ribbon and loose tube fusion splicing, including butt splices, tie-ins, and restoration work
  • Build and dress splice enclosures and Fiber Distribution Frames (FDFs)
  • Install Line Interface Units (LIUs) and MPO panels
  • Perform mid-span entries and ring cuts
  • Maintain proper fiber routing, slack storage, and cable management to spec

Testing and Troubleshooting

  • Perform OTDR, OLTS, optical power meter, and Visual Fault Locator (VFL) testing
  • Configure testing parameters and validate results against customer acceptance criteria
  • Diagnose and resolve splice loss issues, connector contamination, and fiber routing problems at the root cause level

Documentation and Quality

  • Produce accurate splice records and complete fiber test packages
  • Update red lines and as-built documentation
  • Complete turnover documentation and perform quality inspections on your own completed work

Project Execution and Data Center Deployment

  • Read and interpret fiber drawings, rack elevations, and related construction documentation
  • Survey work areas and develop material lists to support project planning
  • Execute Enterprise, hyperscale, and AI cluster / GPU infrastructure fiber deployments
  • Coordinate directly with customers and other trades on-site

Crew Leadership and Development

  • Lead small crews of 5+ Fiber Technicians when assigned
  • Provide technical guidance to Fiber Technicians and mentor developing splicers in the field

Minimum Requirements

Required

  • 1-2+ years of hands-on experience performing advanced fusion splicing independently, in both ribbon and loose tube fiber
  • Demonstrated ability to perform OTDR, OLTS, optical power meter, and VFL testing and to validate results against customer acceptance criteria without supervision
  • Demonstrated ability to build and dress splice enclosures, FDFs, LIUs, and MPO panels
  • Ability to read and interpret fiber drawings and rack elevations
  • Ability to produce splice records, test packages, redlines, and turnover documentation that meet customer close-out standards
  • Willingness and ability to travel nationally on a continuous basis (this is a travel-based role with no fixed home market assignment)
  • Valid driver's license and current auto insurance
  • Ability to work independently at customer sites with minimal direct supervision

Preferred

  • BICSI Installer 2, Optical Fiber pathway
  • High density ribbon fiber splicing experience of 864 strand or higher
  • Prior hyperscale or enterprise ISP fiber deployment experience
  • 1+ year experience leading crews of 5+ technicians
  • Experience developing material lists and surveying fiber work areas

This Role Is Probably Not Right For You If

  • Your fiber experience is limited to loose tube splicing and you haven't run ribbon fusion splicing
  • You need a fixed job site and can't commit to sustained multi-market travel
  • Your splicing background is low-density enterprise work only, without exposure to the density and tolerances hyperscale or AI cluster environments demand

Compensation and Benefits

Pay Rate: $40.00 to $45.00/hour

Benefits:

  • 401(k) with 50% employer match on the first 5% contributed
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance with FSA and HSA options
  • Short and long-term disability coverage
  • 3 weeks PTO (vacation and sick combined)
  • 8 paid holidays
  • Manufacturer training and certification support
  • Meals & Incidental Per Diem paid for all travel
