Role Description As an OSP Engineer III at Pearce, you will lead the end-to-end engineering of complex outside plant programs—from conceptual routing and feasibility through permit approvals, construction release, and closeout. You’ll set the technical direction for fiber/copper aerial and underground builds (pole line, direct-buried, and conduit systems), ensure designs meet NESC and client standards, and safeguard cost/schedule performance. You’ll mentor junior engineers, drive cross-functional coordination, and elevate quality through rigorous QA/QC, field validation, and data-driven improvements. Core Responsibilities - Planning, Design & Technical Leadership - 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. - Field Validation, Standards & Compliance - 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. - Permitting, ROW & Joint Use - 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. - Budgeting, Tracking & Quality Assurance - 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. - Documentation, Systems & Cross-Functional Coordination - 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. Qualifications - 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. Preferred - Experience mentoring/leading engineering teams and vendors; sets technical best practices and SOPs. - Familiarity with drafting/markup and documentation tools (e.g., CAD platforms and markup utilities), and client portals. - Strong communication—able to translate technical constraints into clear decisions for stakeholders. Benefits - Comprehensive health benefits including medical, dental and vision insurance. - Flexible spending accounts, HSA option. - Paid vacation and paid holidays. - Company-matching 401(k) Retirement. - Life Insurance. - Tuition reimbursement and professional development training. - Company vehicle, phone, laptop, or tablet along with all necessary tools and safety equipment.
