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.
