Full Time Google Fiber Installation Jobs in Baton Rouge, LA

Field Engineering Manager - Structured Cabling & Low Voltage

Lead field engineering support across complex data-center, telecommunications, and technical infrastructure projects, serving as the bridge between design intent, field execution, installation quality, testing, and turnover. This hands-on leadership role gives superintendents, foremen, leads, and project teams the technical direction, documentation, and problem-solving support needed to execute correctly the first time.

The best fit is a technically strong low-voltage or structured-cabling leader who can interpret drawings and specifications, resolve field installation issues, standardize execution, coach field teams, and maintain consistent quality across multiple active projects.

Location: Baton Rouge, Louisiana

Schedule: Full time; schedule flexibility and occasional travel based on project demands

Work Setting: Onsite across office and active construction environments

Role Type: Direct hire

Compensation: Market rate. The hiring team is more interested in finding the right person than limiting the search to a fixed number and will work with qualified candidates to build a competitive offer based on experience, technical depth, and overall fit.

Responsibilities

• Serve as the primary technical resource across multiple structured-cabling, telecommunications, low-voltage, and data-center projects.
• Analyze drawings, specifications, schematics, scope documents, revisions, and installation packages for constructability, risk, and technical accuracy.
• Guide superintendents, foremen, leads, installers, and technicians on design interpretation, pathways, installation methods, labeling, testing, documentation, and quality.
• Resolve issues involving copper and fiber infrastructure, telecommunications rooms, racks and cabinets, pathways, grounding and bonding, terminations, system performance, and cross-trade coordination.
• Coordinate RFIs, submittals, revisions, design changes, and technical clarifications with project managers, customers, designers, quality teams, and commissioning teams.
• Participate in preconstruction planning, scope validation, risk identification, execution planning, work packaging, testing plans, and turnover planning.
• Perform field walks and technical reviews to confirm compliance with approved drawings, specifications, customer requirements, manufacturer instructions, and BICSI/TIA/ANSI standards.
• Support copper and fiber testing, validation, deficiency resolution, commissioning, operational readiness, closeout documentation, and final turnover.
• Develop field-engineering procedures, technical standards, checklists, installation details, lessons learned, and quality-control practices.
• Coach field personnel to improve technical judgment, installation consistency, documentation, and first-pass acceptance.
• Identify recurring problems and lead standardization, corrective action, and continuous improvement across projects.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of field engineering, structured-cabling, telecommunications, low-voltage construction, or technical project-support experience.
• Experience within data centers, mission-critical facilities, or similarly complex infrastructure environments.
• Strong knowledge of copper and fiber cabling, telecommunications spaces, pathways, racks/cabinets, labeling, testing, documentation, and related low-voltage infrastructure.
• Ability to interpret drawings, schematics, specifications, details, submittals, RFIs, and design revisions.
• Working knowledge of BICSI, TIA/EIA, ANSI, and related telecommunications and data-center practices.
• Experience identifying constructability and technical issues, leading root-cause analysis, and implementing practical field solutions.
• Experience supporting testing, system validation, commissioning, punch resolution, as-builts, and turnover.
• Ability to explain technical issues clearly to field personnel, customers, project managers, designers, and non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience coaching installers, technicians, foremen, superintendents, or field engineers.
• Ability to manage multiple projects, priorities, technical escalations, and documentation requirements.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office, smartphones, tablets, and project-tracking platforms such as Smartsheet.
• High school diploma or GED required.

Preferred Qualifications

• BICSI RCDD, RTPM, Technician, DCDC, OSP, or relevant manufacturer certifications.
• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Telecommunications, or a related discipline.
• Data-center Layer-1 experience involving high-density copper/fiber, OTDR/OLTS or certification testing, labeling, and turnover documentation.
• Experience supporting Division 27 communications or Division 28 electronic safety and security systems.
