[Hiring] Senior Construction Manager @Delta Oaks Group

Role Description

The Senior Construction Manager – Fiber is responsible for leading construction execution from preconstruction and mobilization through installation, fiber placement, splicing/testing, restoration, closeout, and client acceptance. This individual will coordinate, supervise, and independently drive field execution across hyperscale/data-center connectivity, long-haul and middle-mile routes, ISP/FTTH/FTTx, metro fiber, and other turnkey OSP programs.

This position is intended for an experienced construction operator—not a reporting-only manager. Acting independently with limited supervision, the selected individual must:

• Convert the master schedule and build plan into daily field execution.
• Resolve roadblocks, validate progress, and enforce quality and safety expectations.
• Protect project schedule and cost, and communicate effectively with clients and cross-functional teams.

The role is expected to grow in responsibility as DOG Fiber’s project volume and construction organization expand. The successful individual should demonstrate the technical depth, client leadership, people-development capability, and operational and financial discipline expected of a future Director of Construction.

Qualifications

• Thorough understanding of the full OSP fiber construction lifecycle.
• Strong knowledge of HDD, trenching, plowing, aerial construction, conduit/duct systems, vaults/handholes, specialty crossings, restoration, traffic control, and utility damage prevention.
• Strong working knowledge of fiber splicing, splice documentation, OTDR and optical testing, troubleshooting, loss/attenuation acceptance, and fiber turnover documentation.
• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, profiles, permit plans, bore plans, utility maps, splice diagrams, test results, specifications, BOMs, and contract scope.
• Demonstrated ability to manage schedules, look-aheads, production metrics, subcontractor run rates, budgets/costs, quantities, risks, recovery plans, and client expectations.
• Strong interpersonal, client-management, problem-solving, leadership, and executive communication skills.

Requirements

• Minimum of ten (10) years of progressive telecommunications/fiber construction experience.
• At least five (5) years in construction management, superintendent, operations leadership, or equivalent senior field leadership.
• Demonstrated experience delivering large-scale fiber programs across multiple areas.
• Experience managing multiple subcontractors, inspectors, supervisors, crews, and concurrent work fronts.
• Direct experience supervising or managing fiber placement, splicing, testing, troubleshooting, and final acceptance.
• Experience with construction cost control, schedule management, subcontractor performance, change conditions, QA/QC, and client-facing project execution.
• Experience with complex jurisdictional construction involving DOT/ROW, railroads, waterways, bridges, environmental constraints, utility conflicts, or similar specialty conditions is strongly preferred.

Benefits

• Health insurance
• Opportunity for advancement
• Paid time off
• Training & development
• Vision insurance
• 401(k) matching
• Competitive salary
• Dental insurance
