OVERVIEW: The OSP Program Manager leads the planning and execution of Customer-directed Outside Plant (OSP) infrastructure across multiple projects and locations.

This role supports projects from early-stage mobilization through construction, inspection, and final acceptance. Responsibilities include establishing execution frameworks, developing schedule and milestone logic, coordinating permitting and inspection readiness, standardizing QA documentation processes, and overseeing vendor performance.

The OSP Program Manager ensures OSP delivery is structured, scalable, and aligned with program objectives from project launch through completion.

WHO WE ARE At SILTT, we support complex telecommunications and critical infrastructure programs across global markets. From modular data center facilities to operational sustainment and disaster recovery, our teams operate at the intersection of engineering, construction, and long-term performance. We work alongside our clients to plan, build, and transition infrastructure with discipline and accountability. We deliver results - consistently.

WHY SILTT? At SILTT, being “objective-driven” starts with being “people-driven.” Strong execution begins with strong teams. As a growing business, we are committed to providing competitive benefits, professional development opportunities, and a balanced work environment that supports long-term success- for our clients and our people.

A DAY IN THE LIFE The OSP Program Manager is involved across the full project lifecycle from land due diligence and route feasibility through design, permitting, construction, inspection, and final acceptance.

In early phases, responsibilities include reviewing routing strategy, identifying constructability risks, aligning design inputs with field realities, and confirming permit sequencing is achievable.

As projects advance, the role establishes schedule structure, defines milestone and inspection logic, standardizes QA documentation requirements, and confirms mobilization readiness.

During active construction, the focus shifts to vendor performance oversight, issue resolution, schedule alignment, inspection coordination, and acceptance preparation.

At all stages, the OSP Program Manager addresses risks early, enforces execution discipline, and maintains alignment between design intent, field execution, and contractual requirements.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Lifecycle Oversight: Lead OSP delivery from land due diligence and routing feasibility through design, permitting, construction, inspection, and final acceptance.

Early-Phase Execution Planning: Review route strategy, constructability, and permitting sequencing to identify execution risks prior to field mobilization.

Program Governance: Define and enforce structured schedule, milestone, inspection, QA documentation, and reporting standards across all OSP projects.

Integrated Schedule Oversight: Establish and maintain program-level OSP milestone alignment across Inspection & Acceptance Coordination: Define inspection gates, coordinate jurisdictional inspections, and ensure complete QA documentation prior to acceptance.

QA Documentation Control: Standardize documentation requirements and ensure required testing, redlines, as-builts, and acceptance packages are complete and compliant.

Issue & Escalation Management: Maintain visibility of active execution risks and drive structured escalation where required.

Mobilization Readiness: Confirm defined entry criteria are met prior to construction start, including design maturity, permitting status, and schedule logic.

Reporting & Controls: Maintain accurate visibility into milestone performance, inspection readiness, risk exposure, and vendor accountability.

Resource Direction: Lead and coordinate SILTT scheduling and administrative resources supporting OSP execution, including engineering release, permitting, construction sequencing, testing, and acceptance.

Vendor Performance Management: Oversee Customer-directed OSP execution partners, monitor schedule adherence, and drive resolution of scope, quality, and milestone impacts.
