Field/Service Technician, Telecoms Engineering
General Summary of Position:
The GRID Deployment Engineer - Documentation & Field Readiness will own the documentation standards, site-readiness validation, and deployment documentation process required to scale GRID across a growing portfolio of properties. This role is responsible for creating and maintaining the operational source of truth for GRID infrastructure documentation, including MDFs, IDFs, suite serviceability, network tails, riser paths, install packages, field issues, asset records, and closeout documentation.
The ideal candidate is not simply a documentation administrator. This person should have a strong understanding of network infrastructure, telecom environments, structured cabling, field installation workflows, and technical quality control. They must be able to validate whether documentation is complete, accurate, and usable before an order reaches installation. The goal of this role is to reduce install delays, eliminate tribal knowledge, improve field execution, and create repeatable documentation standards that allow GRID to scale efficiently.
Documentation Ownership:
- Own GRID documentation standards for MDFs, IDFs, suites, serviceability, network tails, riser paths, rack layouts, port maps, cabling paths, install packages, and post-install turnover records.
- Develop and maintain standardized documentation templates, naming conventions, folder structures, checklists, and quality‑control processes.
- Ensure each property has a complete and accurate source of truth for GRID infrastructure.
- Maintain documentation that can be used by Engineering, Field Operations, Sales Engineering, vendors, NOC/support teams, and customer‑facing teams.
- Convert inconsistent field notes, photos, drawings, spreadsheets, and legacy records into structured, repeatable documentation.
- Help define and manage the documentation platform, folder structure, permissions model, naming standards, and workflow requirements for GRID infrastructure records.
- Support the creation of a centralized system of record for property documentation, install‑readiness packages, field updates, issue tracking, asset records, and closeout documentation.
- Create repeatable documentation structures for new GRID properties and deployment projects.
- Track documentation gaps, field issues, installation blockers, and closeout requirements through a consistent process.
- Ensure field photos, redlines, as‑builts, install notes, asset records, and turnover packages are captured and maintained in the correct location.
- Train internal teams and vendors on proper documentation workflows and expectations.
- Validate that orders are complete and technically ready before work is released to installation.
- Review MDF, IDF, suite, tail, riser, pathway, power, rack, port, and serviceability documentation for completeness and accuracy.
- Identify missing or conflicting information before it causes field delays.
- Confirm site‑readiness requirements, access needs, pathway assumptions, handoff locations, and installation constraints.
- Coordinate with Engineering, Sales Engineering, Field Operations, vendors, and property teams to resolve documentation gaps.
- Establish readiness gates that must be completed before an install can proceed.
- Partner with field vendors and internal teams to capture accurate site conditions.
- Review site survey outputs, photos, drawings, field notes, and redlines for accuracy.
- Translate technical field conditions into clear documentation that supports installation and long‑term operations.
- Support issue resolution when field teams encounter documentation discrepancies.
- Ensure post‑install documentation is updated after changes are completed in the field.
- Help create a feedback loop between field execution, engineering design, and documentation standards.
- Build repeatable workflows that reduce reliance on individual knowledge, scattered files, email threads, and disconnected spreadsheets.
- Define documentation quality metrics, including missing documentation, failed readiness checks, install…
