If you said yes to the above questions, you may be perfect for one of our Telecom Field Engineer positions. While experience in the industry is not required, it is helpful.

Dallas-based LightPath Communications is seeking highly motivated recruits for multiple Telecommunications Field Engineer positions. The role of a Field Engineer in Telecommunications is to collect data and assess key pieces of information for outside plant communications networks, including CableTV, Fiber Optic, and Telephone networks.
Field engineers are akin to land surveyors and use a variety of similar tools, including height measuring sticks, distance measuring lasers, GPS tools, Tablet Computers, etc. Most of the work we perform is done in an outside environment, with much of our time spent following, observing, and recording information directly in the field.
Travel is a key part of our line of work, as we are going to where the networks are located in order to gather information about those systems for the purposes of upgrading or building new networks in each area. We deploy teams to nearly all regions within the U.S.
Although Telecommunications Engineering is a specialized field, it draws upon a variety of basic skillsets that you may already possess, including visual observation/detection, problem-solving, basic math, and more. Even your gaming skills can be put to good use here! We will train anyone with the basic aptitude and the right attitude to do this work!
The opportunity to earn increases with the willingness to travel and be diligent in your work while traveling. Time spent in the field is valuable and very lucrative, offering the flexibility of earning more income within less time while deployed. This is not a “9-5” job, it truly is an adventure!
You will see and experience more of the areas in which you work. The work we perform offers not only the opportunity to learn about the networks we document but also about the people and places where we are traveling.
If you are responsible, self-motivated, enjoy the outdoors, have a strong work ethic, appreciate opportunities to earn more based on your own productivity, have a strong desire to travel, and are willing to learn and grow with us, this may be the position you’ve been looking for! We currently have training opportunities available, and we are looking for recruits to start immediately on projects across the country.
These are 1099-Independent Contractor positions, so you will be responsible to track and pay your own taxes and healthcare needs. Our competitive production pay provides YOU with the ability to increase your income in direct proportion to your effort. Your success is our mission! We look forward to meeting you soon!
