Job description

Position Summary:
We are seeking experienced Senior Fiber Optic Splicers to support fiber break/fix, remediation, testing and restoration activities within an active hyperscale data center environment.
This is a production-level position for technicians who can independently diagnose and resolve fiber defects in both live/in-service and non-live fiber environments. The technician will be expected to own assigned defects from initial ticket review through repair, testing, documentation and closure.
Candidates must have recent, hands-on experience with single-fiber fusion splicing, ribbon/mass fusion splicing, SC connectivity, MTP/MPO systems and MMC high-density fiber connectivity. This is not a learn-on-the-job position, and routine technical issues should be resolved without requiring escalation back to the client.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Perform single-mode, single-fiber fusion splicing using repeatable fiber preparation, cleaving and splicing procedures.
  • Perform 12-fiber ribbon and mass fusion splicing, including ribboning fibers from loose-tube cable.
  • Work with SC, MTP/MPO and MMC fiber connectivity in high-density data center environments.
  • Install and repair splice-on connectors, pigtails, fan-outs and related fiber assemblies.
  • Diagnose and repair defects identified through audits, inspections, testing or trouble tickets.
  • Interpret fiber drawings, cable schedules, port assignments, splice plans and methods of procedure.
  • Understand MTP/MPO polarity methods, including Methods A, B and C.
  • Verify MTP/MPO key orientation, pinned versus non-pinned configurations, gender and trunk/harness/cassette architecture.
  • Perform OTDR testing and interpret traces to identify events, excessive loss, reflections, breaks and fault locations.
  • Conduct insertion-loss testing using optical light sources and power meters.
  • Verify results against applicable loss budgets and project acceptance requirements.
  • Inspect and clean SC, MPO and other fiber end faces using appropriate inspection probes and cleaning tools.
  • Apply end face pass/fail standards consistent with project requirements and IEC 61300-3-35.
  • Follow live-environment safety procedures and never inspect an energized fiber directly.
  • Work strictly according to the approved ticket and method of procedure.
  • Avoid disconnecting, moving or disturbing fiber components that are not included in the assigned scope.
  • Document repairs, test results, photographs and supporting evidence before closing tickets.
  • Provide required morning, progress and end-of-day status updates.
  • Maintain splicing machines, cleavers, testing equipment and inspection tools in proper working condition.
  • Follow site safety requirements, including ladder, fall-protection, access-control and tool-control procedures.
Required Qualifications:
  • Demonstrated professional experience performing fiber fusion splicing in data center, colocation, enterprise or mission-critical environments.
  • Recent hands-on experience working with live/in-service fiber infrastructure.
  • Production-level proficiency in:
    • Single-fiber fusion splicing
    • Ribbon or mass fusion splicing
    • Ribboning loose-tube fiber
    • SC terminations and patching
    • MTP/MPO connectivity
    • MMC high-density connectivity
  • Ability to independently diagnose, repair, test and close fiber defects.
  • Hands-on experience operating core-alignment fusion splicers such as:
    • Fujikura 70S/90S series
    • Sumitomo Type-72/Q-series
    • Comparable professional fusion-splicing equipment
  • Proficiency with OTDRs, optical power meters, light sources and fiber inspection microscopes.
  • Ability to interpret OTDR traces rather than only operate the test equipment.
  • Understanding of insertion loss, loss budgets, splice-loss thresholds, reflectance and fiber cleanliness.
  • Ability to read fiber drawings, port maps, cable schedules and technical procedures.
  • Strong documentation and ticket-closure discipline.
  • Ability to work independently without routine client escalation.
  • Comfortable working in a safety-controlled, construction-oriented data center environment.

Experience Guideline:
Three or more years of directly relevant fiber-splicing experience is preferred. However, demonstrated capability with live data-center fiber, ribbon splicing, MPO/MMC and OTDR interpretation should carry more weight than total years of experience.
Preferred Qualifications
  • FOA Certified Fiber Optic Technician - CFOT
  • FOA Certified Fiber Optic Specialist in Splicing - CFOS/S
  • BICSI Installer or Technician certification
  • OSHA 10 or OSHA 30
  • Previous hyperscale data center experience
  • Previous experience on Turner-managed construction sites
  • Experience supporting fiber audits, remediation or live-network restoration
  • Ownership of professional hand tools, fiber preparation tools or inspection equipment
