Dynetek Solutions is a trusted overhead and underground utility contractor serving the southeastern United States. Our Fiber Com Division delivers a full range of fiber optic communications services—including aerial and underground construction, ADSS installation, fiber splicing, fiber-to-the-home (FTTH), fiber-to-the-cell, turnkey projects, maintenance, and emergency restoration—for municipalities, cooperatives, and carriers. We are committed to safety, quality craftsmanship, and reliable delivery on every project, whether it spans one mile or five hundred.

The Fiber Communications Foreman is a hands-on field leader responsible for the safe, efficient, and high-quality execution of aerial and underground fiber optic construction projects. The Foreman directs a crew of technicians and laborers, coordinates daily field activities, ensures compliance with all safety and quality standards, and serves as the on-site point of contact for project management, customers, and inspectors. This is a working leadership role: the Foreman is expected to work alongside the crew while overseeing productivity, safety, and adherence to project specifications.

• Read and interpret fiber construction plans, prints, work orders, staking sheets, and installation specifications to plan and execute daily work.
• Assign tasks, set production goals, and manage labor hours to meet project schedules, milestones, and customer deadlines.
• Coordinate with the Project Manager, Superintendent, utility partners, locate companies, and subcontractors to keep work moving and resolve field issues.
• Perform hands‑on construction work alongside the crew, including pole placement, strand and lashing, conduit installation, cable pulling, splicing support, and OSP terminations.

• Set up and maintain proper work zone protection, signage, cones, and barricades on every job site.
• Inspect tools, vehicles, and equipment daily; remove unsafe equipment from service and report incidents, near-misses, and damages immediately.
• Ensure all crew members hold current required certifications and training, and that all work complies with NESC, NEC, and applicable local utility standards.

• Oversee the quality of all installation, splicing, and testing work to ensure it meets engineering drawings, customer specifications, and industry standards.
• Operate and direct the operation of bucket trucks, digger derricks, directional bore machines, mini-excavators, trenchers, cable pullers, and other fiber construction equipment.
• Track and submit accurate daily production reports, timesheets, redlines, as-builts, materials usage, and equipment logs.
• Manage on-site materials, tools, and consumables; minimize waste and reorder supplies as needed.
• Coach and develop crew members through on-the-job training, performance feedback, and identification of advancement opportunities.
