About Joshua Eigen:
I am a well rounded Telecommunications expert with nearly 6 years experience, in multiple facets of the industry, including high level design, construction redlines, managing field splicing and construction teams, on-site troubleshooting and splicing live and dead fiber using several different manufacturers of OTDRs, fusion machines, light sources and power meters, directional traffic testers, VFLs and so on. I am confident with my experience that I would be a valuable asset to this position and would resolve to perform to the best of my ability for the company and my team. Thank you for your time and consideration, and I hope to hear back from you soon.
Experience
I started my telecom career as an Engineering Associate for several months at Mountain Limited, where I was quickly promoted to an OSP Engineer responsible designing and implementing the construction of point-to-point services for commercial, federal and occasionally VIP residential clients. This would often involve location of existing plant with dead central office fiber pathed out nearest the customer, and creating construction redlines with a budget estimate low enough to make the project financially viable. 1.5 y
I then wanted to broaden my experience in fiber optics and telecom field work, so I began splicing F1/F2 fiber in the field for Core Fusion LLC, and then pulling microduct and splicing fiber for clients such as Lumen and Sparklight for Advanced Cable Technology, respectively. 6mo / 6mo
From this position, I then relocated to Utah and then Minneapolis as a fiber lead for A2D cutovers and node splits for mux consolidation to allow expansion for Harmonic node installation per Comcast. 6mo
After this position, I worked as a Field Surveyor for Engineering associates, collecting GIS data for Lumen High Level Design's densification project. 6/mo
Education
I am taking a sabbatical from a Bioengineering degree from the University of Idaho
