Job Description 1 - Technical / High-Precision Harvest

Fiber Network Analyst - OTDR / EXFO / Fiber Testing

Remote | Contract | $43-$45/hr

We are supporting a major network infrastructure organization looking for a Fiber Network Analyst to provide remote technical support across ISP and OSP fiber deployments.

This is not a traditional field technician position. The Fiber Analyst serves as the technical point of contact for fiber-testing interpretation and troubleshooting, reviewing test results from field engineers and helping determine why a fiber path is not performing as expected.

You will review OTDR and other optical test results, analyze distance and loss measurements, reference network diagrams and fiber-route documentation, and guide field engineers through troubleshooting and retesting until the fiber is validated and ready for service. COPY Job Qualification Form Fib…

Responsibilities

  • Review and interpret OTDR and fiber-characterization test results
  • Analyze loss, distance, connectivity, splice, termination, and routing issues
  • Support ISP and OSP fiber infrastructure
  • Guide field engineers remotely during testing and troubleshooting
  • Reference rack, patch-panel, termination, route, and site documentation
  • Request retests, connector cleaning, alternate test points, or additional validation when necessary
  • Identify likely root causes when test results do not make sense
  • Coordinate with internal teams, field engineers, and vendors
  • Document findings, troubleshooting actions, and conclusions
  • Support multiple fiber projects simultaneously and prioritize work against project deadlines COPY Job Qualification Form Fib…

Ideal Background

  • Strong hands-on or analytical fiber-testing experience
  • OTDR trace interpretation
  • EXFO equipment and/or FastReporter experience strongly preferred
  • Experience with fiber characterization, OLTS, optical power testing, or CD/PMD is a plus
  • Understanding of patch panels, racks, ODFs, splice points, terminations, and fiber routes
  • ISP/OSP, metro, long-haul, backbone, carrier, telecom, or data-center fiber experience
  • Strong troubleshooting and root-cause-analysis skills
  • Comfortable directing field technicians remotely
  • Strong documentation and communication skills

Candidates coming from Fiber Testing, Fiber Characterization, Optical Network Engineering, Fiber Field Engineering, Fiber Splicing/Test, or Telecom Network Infrastructure backgrounds are highly relevant.

GCS is acting as an Employment Business in relation to this vacancy.
