Job Description
OSP Engineer III leading engineering projects for multi-discipline outside plant programs at Pearce Services. Responsible for design, compliance, mentoring, and cross-functional coordination.
Responsibilities:
- Own engineering scope for multi-site/complex OSP builds (fiber & copper; aerial/UG; pole, direct-buried, and conduit).
- Produce and seal (where applicable) engineering plans, splicing diagrams, loss budgets, BOMs, and construction work prints.
- Perform advanced loop-loss and electronics sizing; plan field-mounted switch serving areas and network segmentation.
- Lead constructability reviews, value engineering, and route optimization; resolve clearance, capacity, and alignment conflicts.
- Direct and perform field surveys: pole, conduit, and buried-facility measurements; verify NESC clearances and make-ready needs.
- Ensure compliance with NESC, client specifications, and Pearce standards; conduct feasibility/economic analyses.
- Author redlines/as-builts; drive corrective actions from field QA findings to closure.
- Oversee complete permit packages (municipal/county/state) and coordinate ROW/easements to approval.
- Lead joint-use engineering (pole attachments, loading, and make-ready); coordinate with IOU/co-op/municipal utilities.
- Interface with agencies and utilities to resolve conflicts, accelerate approvals, and de-risk schedules.
- Build job budgets and forecasts; track actuals, changes, and variance drivers; recommend cost/schedule mitigations.
- Establish project KPIs (cycle time, rework rate, punch-list aging) and run continuous-improvement actions.
- Conduct periodic site inspections and formal QA/QC gates from design release through closeout.
- Maintain authoritative records (designs, permits, ROW, accounting/property records, as-builts).
- Prepare executive-ready reports/status dashboards; keep internal/client systems current.
- Partner with PMs, construction, permitting, and vendors to align milestones and dependencies; lead technical touchpoints.
- Provide technical guidance and mentorship to OSP Engineers I/II, designers, and permit staff.
Requirements:
- Extensive OSP Engineering: Proven leadership delivering complex, multi-discipline OSP projects (design → permit → construction readiness → closeout).
- Design Mastery: Expert in work order engineering (including road moves), loss budgets, splicing plans, constructability, and value engineering.
- Field & Standards: Hands-on field measurement experience; deep working knowledge of NESC and client/industry OSP standards.
- Permitting/ROW/Joint Use: Track record obtaining permits and ROW/easements; leading pole attachment, loading, and make-ready coordination.
- Financial & QA Discipline: Building/tracking job budgets and performing structured QA/QC and site inspections.
- Tools & Systems: Proficient with PC apps and record/CAD systems; capable with measuring wheel, height stick, pull finder, and laptop in the field.
