Key Responsibilities
Perform end-to-end fiber circuit audits across multiple DMARC locations within a single shift
Clean, scope, and inspect fiber end-faces using industry-standard tools and techniques
Conduct light level testing using optical power meters and light sources at 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths
Identify and resolve fiber contamination issues, distinguishing between contamination and physical damage
Escalate unresolvable faults following defined escalation procedures
Log all test results, pass/fail outcomes, and actions taken into a customer-provided mobile/web application
Scan and validate cable barcodes using Bluetooth scanners (Code 128 standard)
Confirm polarity using IR cards where required

Scoping & Testing
Hands-on experience with fiber inspection scopes or video probes
Ability to inspect MPO end-faces across all fiber positions and interpret results accurately
Solid understanding of pass vs. fail criteria for fiber end-face inspections of ultra-low latency fiber connections
Experience operating an optical power meter and light source must be able to walk through a full light level test procedure
Familiarity with expected power levels for multimode and single-mode circuits and ability to flag anomalies
Working knowledge of IEC 61300-3-35 cleanliness standards is a strong plus
Troubleshooting
Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot and resolve failing circuits on the first attempt
Ability to isolate fault location DMARC, patch panel, or further down the run
Experience handling circuits that fail after cleaning attempts and executing next-step escalation decisions
