OPTIMIZED JOB DESCRIPTIONOpening HookLINX is hiring a Low Voltage Foreman to lead crews on hyperscale data center and commercial construction projects in [PRIMARY MARKET/REGION]. This is a working foreman role — you know the work from the ground up, you can train technicians to do it right, and you're ready to own the daily execution of complex structured cabling and fiber scopes on large, fast-moving jobsites.
You'll report to the Project Manager and serve as the primary field leader on your assigned projects — the person who makes sure the crew is productive, the materials are staged, the quality is right, and the customer sees a professional operation every day.
Pay: $30.00–$38.00/hour based on experience.
Where This Role Fits at LINXLINX runs a clear field leadership ladder: Technician → Lead Technician → Foreman → Superintendent → Project Manager. This role is the critical bridge between hands-on installation and project-level leadership. Foremen at LINX who perform well move into Superintendent roles as project volume grows — and our pipeline is growing consistently across [PRIMARY MARKET] and six additional markets.
What You'll Be DoingCrew Leadership & Workforce Management
- Lead a team of low voltage technicians on active hyperscale data center and commercial construction jobsites — setting daily goals, managing productivity, and solving problems in real time
- Handle workforce planning for your projects — crew scheduling, labor tracking, timesheet completion, and coordination with contract workers when scope requires additional hands
- Train technicians in installation methods, test equipment operation, safety procedures, and quality standards — you're expected to develop the people on your crew, not just direct them
- Identify and address personnel issues on-site, escalating to the Superintendent or PM when appropriate
Project Execution & Quality Control
- Own daily execution of structured cabling, fiber optic, and low voltage infrastructure scopes — [INSERT: specify fiber types e.g., OM4/OS2/single-mode, copper categories e.g., Cat6A/Cat8, pathway systems]
- Monitor job progress against schedule daily, track costs using project reporting tools and Bluebeam, and adjust crew deployment and material staging to protect the timeline
- Manage Moves, Adds, and Changes (MACs) — tracking scope changes for materials and labor accurately and ensuring proper documentation flows to the PM and estimating team
- Oversee on-site materials management — ordering supplies, coordinating deliveries, managing warehouse communication, and ensuring materials are staged and accounted for
Quality & Safety
- Operate and interpret results from test equipment including [INSERT: e.g., Fluke DSX-600/8000, OTDR, certification testers] — ensure all test documentation meets project specifications and client standards
- Lead daily safety compliance on-site — toolbox talks, hazard identification, PPE enforcement, and adherence to site-specific safety plans, particularly the stringent access control and safety requirements common in hyperscale data center environments
- Conduct quality control checks throughout installation — not just at close-out — and hold your crew to LINX standards at every phase
Customer & Stakeholder Communication
- Maintain professional, proactive communication with clients and GCs at your assigned sites — represent LINX as a competent, organized operation every day on site
- Participate in pre-bid walkthroughs and post-project reviews with Project Managers, Estimating, and Sales teams
- Escalate customer concerns, scope conflicts, or schedule risks to the PM immediately — don't let small issues become large ones
Experience
- 3–5 years of hands-on low voltage or structured cabling installation experience, with mastery of installation methods, tools, and quality standards across copper and fiber systems
- 1–2 years in a field leadership role — Lead Technician, working Foreman, or equivalent — where you were responsible for crew productivity and quality, not just your own work
- Hyperscale data center experience strongly preferred and will be prioritized in our review process — if you have it, make sure it's clearly described in your resume
Technical Skills
- Full mastery of low voltage tools, equipment, and installation processes — you can do everything you're asking your crew to do, and you can teach it
- Ability to read and interpret construction documents — Scope of Work, Bill of Materials, as-builts, blueprints, and project schedules
- Proficiency with test equipment including [INSERT specific platforms] — run tests, interpret failures, troubleshoot, and produce clean documentation
- Familiarity with project cost tracking and Bluebeam Revu for document management and markup
- Working knowledge of applicable industry standards [INSERT: e.g., TIA-568, TIA-942, BICSI TDMM, NEC Article 800]
Leadership & Communication
- Demonstrated ability to lead, train, and hold accountable a crew of technicians in a fast-paced construction environment
- Strong written and verbal communication in English — you will interact directly with clients, GCs, and internal teams on a daily basis
- Ability to manage staffing, scheduling, timesheets, and change order documentation accurately and on time
Logistics
- Valid driver's license required
- [INSERT: Travel expectations — local only, regional, or national for data center project deployments?]
- Ability to meet site-specific physical requirements including [INSERT if applicable: confined space entry, elevated work, data center access credentialing]
These are genuinely preferred — candidates who hold them will move to the top of our review. None are hard requirements for a strong candidate with the right experience.
