About the Role

PRG is seeking a Fiber Designer to join our Texas team to produce high-quality, constructible Outside Plant (OSP) engineering designs for FTTH and other fiber optic network deployments. This role involves creating OSP design packages, including aerial and underground (UG) utility placements, and generating supporting documentation such as splice matrices and permit applications. Familiarity with MDU (Multi-Dwelling Unit) design and ISP (Inside Plant) is also beneficial.

Responsibilities

• Create comprehensive OSP fiber designs with clear constructible routes for aerial, micro-trenching, boring, and other installation types.
• Produce detailed design packages, including Fiber Construction Drawings (FCDs), Bill of Materials (BOM), Scope of Work (SOW), and Notice-to-Proceed (NTP) packages.
• Use GIS and fiber design software (e.g., AutoCAD, Microstation, Arc, Esri, 3-GIS, QGIS, Arc, Vetro, Visio, or others to produce and update network designs.
• Develop and maintain accurate splice matrices to support fiber connectivity requirements.
• Draft permits for aerial and UG utility placement and manage ROW/easement requirements with local municipalities.
• Ensure design quality and troubleshoot design challenges through proactive problem-solving and attention to detail.
• Coordinate with internal teams to finalize as-built documentation and ensure adherence to company and industry standards.
• Support efficient workflows by identifying design process improvements to enhance productivity and quality.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in a technical field or equivalent practical experience.
• At least three years of experience with FTTH infrastructure and OSP design including MxU designs.
• Demonstrated expertise in OSP design tools such as AutoCAD, Microstation, 3-GIS, Vetro, Arc/Esri or other GIS systems.
• Proficiency in creating splice matrices, fiber connectivity plans, and understanding OSP configurations.
• Experience with permitting processes and ROW/easement requirements for OSP construction.
