NTT DATA Services currently seeks a Senior Hybrid OSP + ISP Optical Engineer (Level 4 / Architect) to join our team in Los Angeles. Role Summary We are seeking a senior-level hybrid Outside Plant (OSP) and Inside Plant (ISP) optical engineer to own end-to-end fiber infrastructure from metro rings and laterals through building entry, meet-me rooms, optical distribution frames (ODFs), and patching into routers/optical systems. The ideal candidate combines deep knowledge of OSP route engineering and civil constraints with ISP physical layer design, acceptance testing, and turn-up of carrier-grade optical paths (e.g., CWDM/DWDM) supporting enterprise and service provider networks. Key Outcomes (What Success Looks Like) • Validated, documented, and accepted fiber paths from street to rack with proven route diversity and optical budgets that meet service objectives., • Production-ready OSP/ISP as-builts: strand maps, splice diagrams, ODF port plans, labeling schedules, and patch-field maps., • On-time turn-up of protected optical links to edge routers/OTN/DWDM with passing OTDR/IL/ORL results and method-of-procedure (MOP) sign-offs., • Clear handover packages for operations, including trouble-isolation playbooks and restoration runbooks. Core Responsibilities Outside Plant (OSP) • Plan and review metro ring, spur, and lateral routes; interpret utility records, right-of-way (ROW) constraints, and municipal permit requirements., • Specify and validate conduits/ducts, handholes/vaults, aerial spans, slack storage, splice closures, and restoration coils; ensure constructability and safety., • Engineer and enforce physical path diversity (separation, no crossovers/shared single points of failure) from street to building entry., • Develop/validate splice plans and fiber assignment (A/B paths), ensuring capacity, growth headroom, and spare policy adherence., • Define test plans and acceptance criteria; review OTDR traces and optical loss/reflectance reports; reconcile exceptions and punch lists. Inside Plant (ISP) • Engineer pathways from MPOE to meet-me rooms (MMR) and to telecom rooms (TER/NER): trays/ladders, J-hooks, risers, penetrations, fire-stopping., • Design ODF layouts, patching schemes, and port labeling; manage polarity (LC/SC, MPO/MTP), connector types, and trunk/breakout design., • Define slack management and bend-radius controls; specify cable types (OS2 single-mode), connector grades, cleaning/inspection procedures., • Create rack elevations and patch-field maps; plan A/B optical paths to routers, switches, OTN/DWDM shelves, or ROADM nodes., • Own method-of-procedure (MOP), change windows, and cutover plans; coordinate turn-up, validation, and documentation updates. Experience Supporting Fiber for Sporting Event Broadcast Traffic • Engineered and validated fiber pathways to support real-time broadcast traffic for high-density sporting venues., • Ensured optical paths met strict latency, jitter, and packet delivery requirements for live production environments., • Coordinated OSP/ISP teams to guarantee protected A/B fiber routes for mission-critical broadcast contribution circuits., • Worked with venue technology teams to integrate fiber drops into broadcast compounds, mixed zones, timing systems, and media tribunes., • Performed OTDR, IL, ORL, OSNR, and BER validations on all broadcast-related fiber spans before event activation., • Developed MOPs for live-event cutovers, minimizing risk to broadcast operations during rehearsals and competition windows. Optical Systems & Turn-Up • Perform link budget analysis including distance attenuation, splice/connector losses, component insertion loss, and design margin., • Specify and integrate optics: 10G LR/LR4, 100G LR4/ER4, ZR/ZR+ pluggables; plan DWDM/CWDM lambdas, EDFAs, ROADMs, MUX/DEMUX., • Validate OSNR/BER/power balance for DWDM systems; coordinate with NMS for performance monitoring and alarms., • Coordinate OSP/ISP acceptance with service activation; ensure SLAs (latency/jitter/loss) and restoration targets are met. Standards, Quality & Compliance • Apply relevant standards: ITU-T G.652.D (OS2), TIA/EIA-568 and -758 (OSP), labeling/administration per TIA-606, grounding/bonding principles per ANSI/TIA-607., • Adhere to safety codes and construction best practices; coordinate with GC/utility partners for traffic control, trenching, and aerial work., • Maintain rigorous documentation quality: as-builts, redlines, test results, and records in CMDB and drawing repositories. Collaboration & Leadership • Serve as the technical point of contact between civil build teams, splicing contractors, building facilities, and network engineering., • Run design reviews and risk assessments; resolve field blockers quickly (reroutes, access constraints, alternate entry paths)., • Mentor junior engineers and review third-party design packages for completeness and compliance. Qualifications • 10+ years in fiber engineering across both OSP and ISP domains, including metro builds and campus/enterprise interiors., • BSEE degree or equivalient., • Proficiency with OTDR/OLTS, power meters, fiber inspection scopes, and fiber management databases; ability to interpret complex traces., • Hands-on experience with DWDM/CWDM systems, ROADMs, EDFAs, pluggable optics (10G/25G/100G/400G), and optical protection schemes., • Demonstrated success delivering dual-path designs with strict route diversity and restoration objectives., • Strong drawing literacy (plan/profile, splicing schematics, rack elevations) and comfort with CAD/GIS toolchains (AutoCAD, MicroStation, QGIS/ArcGIS). Preferred/Bonus • Certifications: BICSI RCDD, BICSI Installer 2 (INSTF) Fiber, FOA CFOS/T, Nokia/CIENA/Cisco optical, CCNP/SP, PMP (for complex program coordination)., • Experience provisioning DWDM equipment., • Experience with method-of-procedure (MOP) authoring, change management, and service activation in carrier or large enterprise environments., • Familiarity with telemetry/assurance tools for optical paths and experience integrating with NMS/OSS., • Understanding of QoS considerations across transport for real-time services and broadcast-grade workloads.
