Fabiola Rios
@fabiolarios
I lead fibre network deployment, OSP delivery, and civil works across complex telecom infrastructure programmes.
What I'm looking for
I've led fibre optic network design, construction, operations and restoration for Andean Telecom Partners, Grupo GTD and Gtd Manquehue across Chile, Peru and Colombia. My work spans FTTH/FTTx, GPON, long-haul and core networks, shared passive infrastructure, and outside plant delivery.
At Andean Telecom Partners, I directed fibre network construction in Chile, managed GIS Smallworld asset records, coordinated contractors and municipalities, and controlled budgets, schedules, HSEQ inputs and CAPEX/OPEX reporting. I also supported technical due diligence for M&A processes and maintained passive co-located network availability through maintenance and service restoration coordination.
As an independent consultant, I'm defining neutral-host DAS and shared-infrastructure models for multi-operator indoor coverage and 5G/FTTx expansion. I bring practical experience leading multidisciplinary teams, evaluating technical-commercial feasibility, and turning complex network delivery requirements into structured, investment-ready plans.
