LFG designs, builds and manages power infrastructure for compute systems and utility providers.

Work with carriers and dark fiber providers to bring service to each site over physically separate routes.
Produce splice diagrams and keep fiber records current.
Specify cable, connectors and enclosures.
Oversee fiber contractors, review their test results and accept completed work.
Obtain permits and rights-of-way for fiber builds with Legal and the Civil Engineer.
Plan fiber capacity as customers and carriers are added.

5 or more years designing fiber networks
Knowledge of single-mode fiber, loss budgets and OTDR testing.
