If you're looking to be part of a company that values expertise, teamwork, and cutting-edge design, we'd love to hear from you!

***This is a physical infrastructure design role — not software or IT networking. You'll design the cabling, pathways, and telecom rooms that data centers and mission-critical buildings run on: fiber/copper backbone routing, rack elevations, conduit systems, and construction drawings in Revit. Think structured cabling and building infrastructure design, not network administration or coding.***

Job Description

Meade is seeking an RCDD-certified ICT Infrastructure Design Engineer I (Low Voltage) to join our Engineering team. This is a specialized role focused on the design of network infrastructure and structured cabling systems for mission critical and data center projects. This position will play a key role in delivering high-quality designs for complex projects while continuing to build technical expertise in a niche, high-demand discipline.

The ideal candidate has a solid foundation in network architecture and structured cabling systems.

Job Duties

Network Design & Architecture

Design ICT and network infrastructure systems, including structured cabling (fiber and copper) and telecommunications pathways.
Develop LAN/WAN topology diagrams, logical network layouts, and physical infrastructure design, cable routing, and pathway layouts.
Produce detailed deliverables including:
Construction drawings
Cable routing and pathway layouts
Equipment schedules and specifications
Telecommunications room layouts and rack elevations
Design passive infrastructure including fiber backbone systems, copper cabling, and cross-connect/ODF configurations.
Design Service Entrance Facility (SEF) infrastructure, including fiber vault placement, underground conduit stub-outs, and coordination of carrier incoming fiber pathways.
Develop outside plant (OSP) designs including underground conduit systems, pull boxes, handholes, and site conduit routing in coordination with civil and electrical disciplines.
Apply industry standards (BICSI, TIA/EIA, ANSI) to ensure compliant and scalable designs.

Adjacent Systems Integration

Support the design and coordination of low-voltage systems, including:
Audiovisual (AV) systems
Security (CCTV, access control)
Wireless infrastructure
Ensure these systems are effectively integrated into overall network and ICT infrastructure design.

Data Center Design

Contribute to the design of data center infrastructure systems for enterprise, colocation, and mission-critical facilities.
Develop data hall layouts, rack plans, and cable management strategies.
Support design of MDA, HDA, and EDA environments, including backbone and horizontal distribution systems.
Incorporate considerations such as hot/cold aisle containment and scalability.
Assist in preparing construction documentation for fit-outs, upgrades, and new builds.
Coordinate ICT systems with electrical, mechanical, and other engineering disciplines.

Documentation & Software

Prepare all design drawings and deliverables using the Autodesk software suite, including Revit (MEP).
Develop BIM-coordinated ICT models for design coordination and clash detection workflows.
Produce specifications, design reports, bills of materials, and commissioning documentation.
Maintain accurate version control, project registers, and quality records throughout the project lifecycle.
