Regional fiber-optic ISP expanding across upstate New York
Greenlight Networks operates and builds fiber-optic infrastructure serving five upstate New York regions, competing on download speeds up to 8 gigs. The hiring mix—skewed toward construction (6 roles) and engineering (8 roles)—reflects their capital-intensive model: they own and operate the networks they deploy. Current pain points (meeting construction mile targets, labor utilization, low fiber adoption) and projects (network buildouts, SMB acquisition, HOA/MDU projects) show a company scaling construction capacity while building a residential and small-business sales motion.
Notable leadership hires: Construction Director, Ecommerce Director
