### WHAT YOU WILL DO

### Role Overview

The Fiber Optical Repair Technician is responsible for the repair, restoration, and maintenance of fiber optic infrastructure, including splicing, testing, and troubleshooting of both single-mode and ribbon fiber cables. This role ensures the rapid restoration of network services and supports ongoing operational excellence in high-availability environments.

The ideal candidate will demonstrate exceptional technical competency, situational awareness in live network environments, and the ability to lead or coordinate complex restoration efforts under pressure.

### Key Responsibilities

### Fiber Repair & Restoration

- Perform fault isolation and repairs on fiber optic cables and connectors, from initial fault detection through to full service restoration.
- Conduct both emergency restorations and planned maintenance activities with strict adherence to SLAs.
- Conduct single and ribbon fiber splicing within Meet-Me Vaults (MMVs), splice cases, and central Optical Distribution Frames (ODFs).
- Perform full cable preparation: jacket stripping, buffer tube access, fiber cleaning, cleaving, splicing, and protection.
- Use precision tools (fusion splicer, VFL, fiber identifiers) and ensure high-quality workmanship throughout.
- Adhere to live traffic handling procedures and ensure minimal service disruption during repairs.
### Testing & Troubleshooting

- Operate advanced fiber testing instruments (OTDR, OLTS, power meters, microscopes, and inspection scopes).
- Conduct post-repair verification, including loss testing, reflectance analysis, and trace review.
- Accurately interpret OTDR traces and locate break points, microbands, or connector faults.
- Perform in-depth root cause analysis on recurring or systemic network issues.
- Implement corrective and preventive measures to improve reliability and reduce fault recurrence.
### Documentation & Compliance

- Maintain accurate records of repair activities, test results, and maintenance logs.
- Comply with relevant industry standards (ITU-T, FOA, BICSI, TIA/EIA, NEC) and local safety regulations.
- Support audits and quality assurance processes as required.
### Collaboration & Leadership

- Work closely with field operations, network engineers, and project managers to coordinate repair activities.
- Provide guidance, mentorship, and on-the-job training to junior team members.
- Participate in on-call rotations and respond to network outages within defined SLAs (e.g., 4-hour response for emergencies).
- Communicate clearly with internal teams and clients during critical incidents, providing real-time updates and restoration progress reports.
### Continuous Improvement

- Stay current with the latest fiber optic technologies, repair techniques, and industry best practices.
- Participate in technical training, cross-functional workshops, and skill enhancement initiatives.
- Contribute to the refinement of standard operating procedures (SOPs) and restoration workflows.
### Required Skills & Experience

### Technical Expertise

- 5+ years’ experience in fiber optic repair, splicing, testing, and restoration — including live-network work.
- Proficient in using advanced test and repair equipment: OTDR, OLTS, power meter, fusion splicer, fiber identifier, and inspection scopes.
- Strong ability to interpret OTDR traces, event tables, and loss readings for accurate fault localization.
- Deep knowledge of fiber types, connector standards (LC, SC, MPO, MTP), and splice protection methods.
- Experience with both single-mode (OS1/OS2) and multi-mode (OM3/OM4/OM5) fibers.
