Devin leads Draftech's technical operations and engineering team infrastructure — building the capacity and workflows that allow 600+ engineers to deliver OSP design at scale across all 50 U.S. states.
Miami Dade College
Miami, FL
Oversees Draftech's engineering operations and technical delivery — managing the systems, processes, and team structure that support OSP design programs across all 50 U.S. states.
Leads engineering recruitment, onboarding, and team scaling at Draftech — with direct experience navigating the OSP workforce shortage affecting BEAD-funded fiber programs nationwide in 2025–2026.
Deep knowledge of make-ready engineering workflows, OTMR qualification processes, OSP fielding cost structures, strand mapping procedures, and the partner selection criteria ISPs use when choosing engineering firms.
Advises ISPs, carriers, and BEAD subgrantees on how to evaluate and select OSP engineering partners — contract structures, capacity requirements, quality controls, and the red flags that indicate delivery risk.
Supported delivery across 44,000+ miles of fiber network design and 2.6M+ addresses passed — managing the engineering operations backbone that powers Draftech's programs across all 50 U.S. states.

Devin's writing focuses on the operational side of fiber deployment — make-ready processes, workforce challenges, engineering partner selection, and the field operations decisions that determine project outcomes.
Make-Ready Engineering Timelines
Why make-ready creates invisible schedule delays in fiber deployments — and the process changes, sequencing decisions, and utility coordination strategies that actually fix the problem.
