Broadband Construction Technician

Company background

Alyrica Networks is a locally owned internet provider that’s been connecting the Willamette Valley since 2002. We’re growing fast — building fiber into communities like Sweet Home, Halsey, Brownsville, and Adair Village — and we need more hands on our construction crew to keep up. We hire people who take ownership, do the job right, and look out for the customer and each other. If you like working outdoors, working with your hands, and seeing the results of a hard day’s work, we’d like to talk to you.
