The role will require you to utilise field data combined with your construction design knowledge to produce detailed drawings and plan routes for national fibre projects. Your in-depth understanding of construction methodologies will support you to analyse regional geography, geology, land use and environmental information as they relate to the installation of fibre optic cable. Your ability to think critically about the buildability of our regional projects will see you succeed in this role.

Drawing on your experience in designing or building telecommunications or other linear infrastructure you will play a key role in the planning of AARNet’s expanding regional network.

Your familiarity with design software such as AutoCad and proficiency with field tools including iPads and Trimbles, will support you to produce high quality and detailed designs that will be used by Construction Managers, Field Teams and Senior Management.

Drawing on your excellent problem solving abilities you will take a strategic & analytical approach to your planning activities and assist the groups reporting functions. Supported by your attention to detail, you will effectively identify risks to path options and use your industry knowledge to estimate costs associated with proposed routes. Acting as a crucial source of knowledge during the construction phase you will continue liaise with managers and resolve design issues during the lifecycle of the build. Analysing real-time site information to make effective construction decisions in collaboration with group management.
