Role Summary: The Technical Project Manager is responsible for coordinating day-to-day low-voltage cabling execution across cable run and dress, labeling, patching, testing readiness, and defect remediation activities within a data center build environment. This role works closely with field crews, testing teams, network teams, inventory, documentation, and site leadership to ensure work is completed safely, accurately, and in line with project standards.
Key Responsibilities: - Lead and coordinate field execution for copper and fiber cable routing, dressing, pathway usage, rack/cabinet cable management, and installation quality.
- Ensure workmanship standards are followed, including bend radius, pulling tension, bundle size, cable support, slack storage, strain relief, and clean cable presentation.
- Own labeling execution and verification for cables, patch panels, cabinets, ports, and related records in alignment with project naming and labeling standards.
- Coordinate patching activities for copper and fiber connections, ensuring correct port-to-port connectivity, cable length selection, connector care, and accurate patch records.
- Support structured cabling testing readiness by ensuring links are prepared, labels are correct, endpoints are verified, connectors are cleaned, and test teams have the required information.
- Track test defects, coordinate remediation with installation teams, and support retesting until closure.
- Perform in-process quality checks and identify issues such as pinched cables, incorrect labels, poor dressing, bend-radius violations, dirty connectors, or patching mismatches.
- Maintain daily progress updates, work package completion records, redline inputs, punch-list items, and documentation required for turnover.
- Coordinate with TPM2 / site leadership, network teams, materials teams, and subcontractors to remove blockers and maintain schedule alignment.
- Promote safe work practices, housekeeping, tool control, and site compliance while working in active construction or data hall environments
Required Skills and Knowledge: - Strong hands-on understanding of structured cabling installation practices for copper and fiber in data center or mission-critical environments.
- Practical knowledge of cable routing, dressing, patching, labeling, test preparation, and remediation workflows.
- Ability to read cable schedules, rack elevations, drawings, port maps, patch schedules, and work packages.
- Working knowledge of BICSI / ANSI-TIA cabling practices, including pathway use, bend radius, labeling discipline, and documentation traceability.
- Familiarity with fiber connector care, cleaning, polarity awareness, and basic test failure causes.
- Strong attention to detail for labeling, patching, port mapping, and documentation accuracy.
- Ability to lead installers or small crews, coordinate with multiple workstreams, and escalate issues early.
- Comfortable working onsite in a data center / construction environment with strict safety, access, and housekeeping requirements.
Experience Range: - Target: 6-9 years of relevant low-voltage, structured cabling, fiber/copper, or data center infrastructure experience.
- Minimum: 5+ years with strong hands-on structured cabling and field coordination experience.
- Preferred: Prior data center, hyperscale, mission-critical, or large structured cabling project experience.
Certifications / Training: Preferred: BICSI Installer/Technician, FOA CFOT, manufacturer fiber/copper training, OSHA 10 or OSHA 30.
Helpful: Experience with OLTS, OTDR, copper certifiers, fiber inspection scopes, labeling systems, and structured cabling test result documentation.
