Plainfield, CT – April 15, 2021… The race is on to bring fiber broadband to rural communities throughout the country. In the northeast, Sertex Broadband Solutions is partnering with communities to build publicly owned fiber-to-the-home networks from Block Island to the Berkshires. The more networks built out, the more career opportunities there are for job seekers to join an exciting growth industry.
Fueled by a surging economy, the increased demand for high-speed internet is creating new jobs. The positions available at Sertex offer a career-path for all levels of job seekers with or without a college degree, including fiber optic technicians, telecom linemen, ground construction workers, residential drop installers, and splicers. Currently, Sertex is actively hiring for several open positions.
Careers in fiber optic construction can provide a lifetime of job security. Successful candidates may include line school, high school, trade school, and college graduates, as well as former military personnel, tree care and construction industry professionals, and others. As an employer, Sertex provides employee training and advancement programs with competitive pay and benefits.

“Deploying fiber networks is labor-intensive involving underground construction, stranding aerial fiber optic cables, and installing in-home equipment,” explains Michael Solitro, president and CEO of Sertex. “The work is hard in all-weather conditions and often in remote areas, but it is also meaningful to be part of connecting people to high-speed Internet service, especially during the pandemic.”
