Position Overview

As a Project Coordinator – Drop Installation, you play a key role in helping bring fiber internet to communities by supporting the scheduling and tracking of subscriber installations. You'll work closely with field crews, project managers, and client teams to keep installs organized, on schedule, and properly documented.

The installs you help coordinate are what turn Stimulus's SLFRF, FFA grant, and BEAD-funded fiber builds into active, connected service for subscribers across rural Nevada, Missouri, California, and Oregon, on projects with important funding and timeline requirements.

For the right candidate, this is a great opportunity to work with data, coordinate moving pieces in a fast-paced environment, and grow into a project management or operations role. You'll track daily progress, help schedule installations, and flag issues before they become problems while learning the ins and outs of fiber deployment projects.
