Solution Architect (Fiber) (Telecommuter, US)

About This Opportunity

We are representing a confidential technology infrastructure client seeking a Solution Architect (Fiber) to join their team on a remote basis anywhere in the United States. Our talent team is working with a leading organization that designs and delivers large-scale AI data center environments, and they need a customer-facing technical expert who can architect high-density fiber and structured cabling solutions for next-generation infrastructure programs.

This is a telecommuter role supporting AI data center initiatives where GPU clusters, high-performance networks, and hyperscale environments demand precision physical layer design. You'll work closely with customers, sales teams, engineering, and delivery partners to translate AI infrastructure requirements into scalable, repeatable, and executable fiber connectivity architectures.

Responsibilities

• Lead technical discovery and architecture for fiber and structured cabling solutions supporting AI data center programs
• Translate customer compute, network, rack, and deployment requirements into physical layer designs, standards, BOMs, and implementation requirements
• Design high-density fiber architectures supporting GPU clusters, Ethernet and InfiniBand fabrics, storage networks, and data center interconnects
• Develop rack-to-rack, row, zone, meet-me-room, backbone, horizontal, and cross-connect cabling architectures
• Define fiber types, connectorization, polarity, patching, labeling, pathway, containment, and cable management standards
• Develop and validate cable matrices, port maps, connectivity schedules, rack elevations, drawings, BOMs, and installation documentation
• Partner with OEMs and infrastructure manufacturers to validate interoperability, standards, product selection, and technical roadmaps
• Support estimating, proposals, statements of work, RFQs/RFPs, technical presentations, and customer design reviews
• Work with Professional Services and field delivery teams to ensure designs are constructible, scalable, testable, and repeatable across large deployments
• Support design-to-delivery handoff, installation standards, QA/QC requirements, testing, certification, documentation, and closeout
• Identify opportunities to standardize and automate fiber design, documentation, BOM creation, and deployment methodologies

What We're Looking For

Required Experience and Skills:

• 5+ years of experience designing fiber, structured cabling, or physical network infrastructure in data center environments
• Strong background in AI data center connectivity areas including high-density fiber architectures, GPU cluster connectivity, Ethernet/InfiniBand fabrics, structured cabling, data center interconnect, rack-level connectivity, and large-scale fiber deployment
• Strong knowledge of single-mode and multimode fiber, MPO/MTP and LC connectivity, polarity methods, transceivers/optics, patching architectures, and high-density fiber management
• Ability to interpret network designs, rack elevations, port maps, equipment layouts, construction drawings, and customer technical standards
• Experience creating or validating BOMs, cable matrices, connectivity schedules, design packages, test requirements, and as-built documentation
• Knowledge of structured cabling standards, installation practices, testing/certification, labeling, pathways, and data center QA/QC processes
• Experience working with major networking OEMs, optics providers, fiber manufacturers, and structured cabling partners
• Strong customer-facing communication, technical presentation, documentation, and design-review skills
• Ability to collaborate across sales, architecture, engineering, Professional Services, project management, operations, field delivery, and partner organizations
• Ability to operate in fast-moving environments where designs and deployment requirements evolve rapidly

Strongly Preferred:

• Experience supporting large-scale data centers, hyperscale environments, AI infrastructure, HPC, cloud providers, or major colocation/data center operators
• Exposure to AI infrastructure and large GPU clusters
• Experience with 400G, 800G, and emerging high-speed data center connectivity
• Knowledge of high-performance Ethernet and InfiniBand fabrics
• Experience with hyperscale or cloud data center fiber architecture
• Background in high-density rack and row-level connectivity
• Experience with large-scale fiber installation and patching programs
• Familiarity with pre-terminated and modular fiber solutions
• Experience with offsite fiber preparation, kitting, labeling, and pre-integration
• Knowledge of fiber testing, certification, troubleshooting, and remediation
• Experience with automated cable matrices, BOMs, port mapping, and design documentation
• Multi-site deployment standards and repeatable data center design methodologies

Core Competencies:

• Deep understanding of high-density data center fiber design and physical connectivity
• Understanding of how GPU compute, networking, storage, and rack architectures drive physical layer requirements
• Ability to create repeatable architectures capable of supporting thousands of racks and very large connection counts
• Rigorous attention to port mapping, polarity, labeling, testing, documentation, and quality
• Ability to lead technical discovery, design workshops, and customer architecture reviews
• Design-to-delivery thinking that considers sourcing, pre-build, installation, testing, and operations
• Cross-functional collaboration connecting customer requirements with sales, engineering, sourcing, partners, and field delivery
