Field Engineering, Infrastructure Low Voltage​/Cabling SME

We are seeking a Field Engineering Subject Matter Expert focused on Low Voltage and Infrastructure Cabling to help define how complex physical infrastructure work is scoped, delivered, tested, and accepted across our North America Field Engineering organization. This is a senior technical individual contributor role for someone who combines deep hands-on field experience with the ability to turn that experience into standards, technical work packages, methods, training, and scalable delivery capability.

You will work across the full opportunity and delivery lifecycle. That includes supporting Sales and Solutions on complex opportunities, validating field feasibility, improving estimating assumptions, establishing technical standards and required artifacts, supporting high risk projects and escalations, developing employees and partners, and helping ensure consistent quality at scale. A key part of the role is closing the loop between what we sell, what the field actually encounters, and how we improve the next delivery model and estimate.

• Serve as the practice level technical authority for Low Voltage / Infrastructure Cabling delivery across Field Engineering.
• Actively support complex customer pursuits and the sales motion by reviewing scope, field conditions, technical assumptions, acceptance requirements, labor drivers, comparable field experience, and delivery risk.
• Partner with Sales, Solutions, and Costing / Estimating to determine whether proposed work is technically feasible, properly scoped, supportable, and grounded in current field experience before customer commitments are made.
• Develop and maintain repeatable technical standards, work package requirements, methods, readiness criteria, quality checklists, testing requirements, documentation standards, and acceptance evidence.
• Define site survey and buildability requirements for pathways, telecom rooms, racks and cabinets, termination capacity, conduit fill, access, grounding and bonding interfaces, testing, and acceptance.
• Support Project Engineers and delivery teams during complex deployments, escalations, quality issues, root cause analysis, and customer recovery situations.
• Define technical skills, training, assessment, and qualification expectations for Field Engineering employees and delivery partners.
• Assess partner technical capability and readiness for defined work types while partner sourcing and commercial ownership remain with the appropriate teams.
• Analyze recurring defects, delivery results, and material planned versus actual execution gaps and convert lessons learned into stronger standards, artifacts, training, Costing / Estimating guidance, and preventive actions.
• Review what the work actually required in the field and use that evidence to improve future labor assumptions, productivity inputs, technical role mix, tooling, testing, partner requirements, assumptions, exclusions, and delivery methods.
• Help develop and launch new services through controlled pilots, technical readiness reviews, and repeatable delivery methods.
• Structured copper and fiber cabling, backbone and horizontal infrastructure, patching systems, and related physical layer services.
• Pathways and spaces, racks and cabinets, cable management systems, telecom rooms, sleeves, penetrations, access, grounding and bonding interfaces, and installation hardware.
• Fiber installation, splicing, connectorization, cleaning and inspection, polarity, optical loss testing, OTDR use cases, remediation, and certification.
• Copper installation, termination, permanent link or channel testing, certification, troubleshooting, and remediation.
• Site surveys, constructability, pathway capacity, termination capacity, material and tooling requirements, and design to delivery handoff.
• Applicable TIA, BICSI, NEC/NFPA, manufacturer, customer, permitting, fire stopping, grounding and bonding, and safety requirements as they affect field delivery.

• Ten or more years of progressive experience in low voltage, structured cabling, telecommunications infrastructure, fiber optics, or related professional services delivery, including substantial experience leading complex or large-scale field deployments.
• Demonstrated field delivery depth across copper and fiber infrastructure, pathways and spaces, termination, splicing, testing, labeling, documentation, and technical acceptance.
• Experience conducting or reviewing site surveys and determining whether proposed infrastructure is buildable with…
