FIBER OPTICS TECHNICIAN Construction | Chandler, AZ | Full-Time Contract

Our client is a privately held Systems Integration and Instrumentation & Controls (I&C) Construction firm that has been delivering industrial automation solutions for over 30 years. Headquartered in Texas with offices across the country, they serve a broad range of industrial sectors including mission-critical data centers, oil & gas, semiconductor fabrication, battery storage, water & wastewater, and district energy. Their full-service capabilities span project management, instrumentation and electrical design, systems engineering, PLC/SCADA/HMI programming, UL-listed control panel fabrication, and electrical construction — all under one roof.

The company is deeply committed to customer focus, total system responsibility, and delivering excellence on every project from initial design through post-project maintenance.

We are seeking a skilled Fiber Optics Technician to support instrumentation and controls work on active industrial and commercial construction projects. In this role, you will be responsible for the setup, configuration, testing, and commissioning of instrumentation and control systems at job sites — ensuring everything from field devices to PLC/HMI systems is properly installed, wired, and functioning to spec. Your work plays a critical role in bringing new systems online safely and correctly.

Day to day, you will be learning site operational processes, reviewing plans and schematics, connecting and calibrating instruments, performing electrical terminations, and troubleshooting issues during the start-up phase. You will also contribute to project documentation including submittals, specification reviews, and drawing assessments. When systems are live, you may be called upon for after-hours support and service calls, making reliability and responsiveness key traits for this position.

The ideal candidate is technically sharp, comfortable working independently in the field, and has hands‑on experience with instrumentation setup, structured cabling, and basic PLC/HMI programming. Relevant certifications such as CFOT or BICSI are a strong plus. If you take pride in precise, quality‑driven work and want to be part of a team delivering complex automation projects across high‑demand industries, we want to hear from you.
