Your impact

At Jacobs, we don’t settle. We’re always looking beyond to raise the bar and deliver with excellence. We apply our expertise and knowledge as we look into the future with great optimism and focus. Start your Jacobs career that inspires and empowers you to deliver your best work so you can evolve, grow and succeed – today and into tomorrow.

We are looking for a Telecom Systems Engineer who is excited about working on projects that enable the heart of our clients’ business. Join us and you’ll have the chance to work on projects, including semiconductor manufacturing and other state-of-the-art manufacturing and research facilities. Come be a part of a vibrant, dynamic team that delivers world class designs for well-known clients around the world.

You will thrive as you provide telecommunications systems design documentation for our client’s advanced facilities which, in turn shape our world.

This is a hybrid, geographically flexible position located in the US.

This position will provide opportunities to expand your knowledge and skills within the telecommunications design industry while working to produce complex design packages for our projects. This is done in coordination with other designers, discipline leads, architects and engineers all under one Jacobs design team. You will be responsible for documenting and modeling the design information within Revit and occasionally AutoCAD, under direction of our project discipline leads.

Using these software platforms you will create fully coordinated 3D models across all design disciplines (C,S,A,M,E,P,T,I,L). In addition to 3D BIM Models, you will also be responsible for coordinating and producing traditional 2D construction drawings as required. You will get a chance to design everything from Outside Plant (OSP) to inter / intra-building backbone distribution systems, communication room layouts, rack elevations, wired & wireless device plans and cable schedules.

Depending on project size and scopes involved, you may also be given a chance to lead small portions of design with oversight and coordination with the discipline lead. Since all designs and calculations will be completed in accordance with the NEC, applicable TIA and other industry standards as well as client and/or Jacobs specifications, over time, you will get to experience to all facets of telecom design for these advanced facilities.

Bring your curiosity, talent for multi-tasking and collaboration, and extreme organizational skills and we will help you grow, pursue, and fulfill what drives you – so we can make big impacts on the world, together.
