Fiber Network Data Analyst

The Fiber Network Data Analyst plays a critical role in documenting and managing fiber optic network assets across both inside plant (ISP) and outside plant (OSP) environments. This position requires strong attention to detail and the ability to analyze, validate, and update network records using specialized industry software. The ideal candidate is skilled in fiber network design interpretation, data verification, and project support within a highly technical and collaborative setting.

Key Responsibilities:

• Maintain and update records of fiber optic network assets for ISP and OSP using fiber network mapping software.
• Analyze network orders, engineering diagrams, and fiber route documentation to ensure the accuracy of customer network asset records.
• Research and validate fiber designs by aligning them with project objectives, technical requirements, and implementation priorities.
• Gather and interpret various data sources to compare and validate fiber network information.
• Identify and troubleshoot discrepancies in design drawings and network documentation; isolate performance issues related to data entry and software usage.
