Job Description

About the Role

The Site Quality Lead is a pivotal position responsible for ensuring the accuracy, completeness, and compliance of all engineering deliverables produced by the site team. This encompasses a broad range of responsibilities, from overseeing quality assurance processes to managing Agency and Subcontractor performance related to quality control. The role acts as the final technical gatekeeper prior to the submission of deliverables to the Government, making it a critical component of the project's success.

The day-to-day responsibilities of the Site Quality Lead are multifaceted, involving the implementation of quality standards, the management of inspections and audits, and the coordination with various teams to resolve discrepancies and quality issues. The role requires a deep understanding of TIA/EIA, UFC, I3A, NEC, and AF/SF standards, as well as the ability to develop and enforce standardized QA/QC processes.

Given the complexity and the high stakes of the projects, the Site Quality Lead will be working closely with the DS Lead, OSP, FO, and CEL engineers, among others, to ensure that all aspects of the project meet the required quality levels. This collaboration is crucial for identifying and addressing potential issues early on, thereby ensuring the overall quality and reliability of the deliverables.

What You Will Do

  • Oversee quality assurance for all engineering deliverables generated at each site, including network, OSP, FO, and CEL surveys, drawings, redlines, reports, as-builts, and technical documentation.
  • Verify compliance with required standards including TIA/EIA, UFC, I3A, NEC, and AF/SF engineering and construction criteria.
  • Manage quality oversight of GDIT, Agency, and Subcontractor labor, ensuring all inspections, installations, and documentation meet project standards.
  • Develop and enforce standardized QA/QC processes, workflows, and checklists for all DS workstreams.
  • Conduct on-site inspections, verification walks, and technical audits to ensure the accuracy of engineering data and field results.
  • Coordinate with DS Lead, OSP, FO, and CEL engineers to resolve discrepancies, design conflicts, deficiencies, or quality issues.
  • Track quality-related risks, document non-conformance items (NCIs), and ensure remediation is completed.
  • Facilitate internal quality review meetings and collaborate with PMs and technical leads on corrective actions.
  • Review and validate as-built packages for completeness, accuracy, and alignment with installed conditions.
  • Support customer briefings and technical discussions as the quality subject matter expert.
  • Maintain deep knowledge of DoD, AF/SF, and TIA/EIA standards to ensure all deliverables meet or exceed required quality levels.

What We Are Looking For

  • 7–10 years of experience in telecommunications engineering, infrastructure installation, or DoD network modernization.
  • Demonstrated experience in quality assurance or quality control within telecom, OSP/ISP, or similar engineering projects.
  • Strong familiarity with TIA/EIA standards (TIA-568, TIA-569, TIA-606, TIA-607, TIA-598, and fiber testing standards).
  • Experience reviewing OSP, fiber, telecom room, and structured cabling designs for compliance and accuracy.
  • Prior experience managing subcontractor quality or installation oversight.
  • Experience supporting AF/SF or federal modernization programs is strongly preferred.
  • Knowledge of OSP construction, fiber testing, and telecom room environmental/grounding requirements.
  • US Citizenship is required.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with AFNET, DISA, or large federal telecommunications programs.
  • Experience with quality management systems (QMS), inspections, and non-conformance tracking.
  • Experience generating or reviewing telecom engineering drawings and as-built documentation.
  • Certifications such as BICSI RCDD, BICSI OSP, Installer 2, or Technician certifications, FOA CFOT, PMP, CAPM, or equivalent quality/project management certifications.
  • OSHA 30 or similar safety certification for site inspection work.
  • CCNA certification is preferred.

Benefits and Perks

  • Competitive salary within the range of $96,569 to
    30,651, depending on experience and location.
  • Opportunity to work on high-impact projects with a leading organization in the industry.
  • Comprehensive benefits package, including health insurance, retirement savings, and paid time off.

  • Ensure your resume and cover letter are tailored to highlight your quality assurance experience and knowledge of TIA/EIA standards.
  • Prepare examples of how you have managed subcontractor quality or installation oversight in previous roles.
  • Familiarize yourself with the latest trends and technologies in telecommunications engineering and infrastructure installation.
  • Develop a portfolio that includes examples of your work, such as quality control checklists, inspection reports, and as-built packages.
  • Be prepared to discuss your experience with quality management systems and how you have applied them in previous roles.
  • Research the company and the specific project to understand the context and requirements of the position, and be ready to ask informed questions during the interview.
