Role Summary:
Serve as an independent quality representative for Meta on connectivity installation projects, delivering end-to-end quality assurance and quality control (QAQC) for all connectivity infrastructure — pathways, cabling, and network systems. You will verify that installations comply strictly with Meta specifications, applicable codes, and project contract documents, and you will drive issues to closure across multiple contractor stakeholders.
Key Responsibilities
Specification Compliance & Documentation Control:
- Request, review, and work to the latest applicable project specifications; confirm with Meta which specification packages apply per project.
- Maintain a record of all specifications referenced and followed; make it available to Meta on request.
- Perform monthly specification audits comparing Meta's current specs (including quality-related change orders) against what the contractor holds; escalate misalignment or blockers to Meta's representative.
- Support Owner Furnished Contractor Installed (OFCI) equipment management, including RMA process adherence and tracking.
- Escalate specification conflicts or ambiguities promptly to the Meta CE.On-Site Inspection & Issue Management
- Conduct continuous, independent visual inspections and observations of ongoing connectivity work.
- Log every deficiency as an Issue in Meta's quality management platform (Autodesk Construction Cloud unless otherwise directed) and track to verified resolution.
- Prevent contractors from building upon or concealing non-conforming work.
- Spot-check materials and product data against approved submittals; examine and sign off work areas for readiness against approved shop drawings.
- Verify contractor test equipment compliance and witness testing spot checks as requested.
Inspection Program & Closeout:
Align with the Meta CE and GC/TC on the full list and schedule of required QAQC inspections across the project lifecycle.
Execute inspections using Meta's QAQC platform, complete all checklist review questions, and obtain required signatures.
Review and formally verify field closeout documentation before handover: red-lined as-builts, butterfly diagrams, splice path records, QA/QC checklists and issues, and cable test reports.
Network Quality Control:
Verify pre-audit submittals (quality inspection acceptance, crew and communication plan, communication protocol, owner-directed procedures) as a mandatory quality gate. Provide oversight and validation of Division 27 network audits: Device Audit, Circuit Audit, and Network Quality Audit (BERT / synthetic traffic testing and continuous circuit audits).Confirm certified, calibrated, approved test equipment (OTDR, OLTS, fiber scope, etc.) and validate fiber and copper test results against specified loss values. Report periodically on contractor adherence to auditing best practices.
Meetings, Milestones & Reporting:
Coordinate, schedule, and present at weekly project-level QAQC meetings and monthly program-level QAQC meetings. Manage key milestones: hold pre-meetings and at least one site walk with the Meta CE, Network Engineer, and contractor project/quality leads to establish readiness; attend later inspections for approval. Issue a weekly QA/QC status report each Friday with meeting minutes, lessons-learned matrix, QAQC analytics dashboards, a prioritized and aging-coded issues log, past-due items, and any milestones at risk. Deliver the final Project QA/QC Closeout Report as the definitive record of activities, issues resolved, and inspection outcomes.
Minimum Qualifications:
Minimum five (5) years of telecommunications experience, with documentation available for verification.
Working knowledge of structured cabling, pathways, fiber and copper testing, and telecom specifications (Divisions 01, 07, 27).Demonstrated ability to read and inspect against specifications, submittals, and shop drawings.
Experience with construction quality management platforms (Autodesk Construction Cloud preferred) for checklists, issues, and documentation.
Strong coordination skills, high attention to detail, and proven ability to proactively identify and manage risk across multiple stakeholders.
Clear written and verbal reporting skills, including presenting status to owner representatives.
Preferred Qualifications:

Fiber inspection and certification standards experience (e.g., IEC 61300-3-3); OTDR/OLTS certification.
Experience acting as an owner or independent representative on large construction programs.
