Are you ready to join this team and transform American communities?

Underline was founded in 2019 with a singular mission: to ensure the vibrancy of our nation through building intelligent community infrastructure in a socially equitable manner. We work with American communities to design, finance, and construct open access fiber-optic networks. These networks are critical to secure internet access that’s fast, affordable, and fair. As open access networks, this infrastructure is also the essential foundation for distributed healthcare services, new wireless solutions, and resilient infrastructure including modernized water systems and responsible energy creation. Our first two projects are in Colorado Springs and Fountain, Colorado.

As the MDU Account Manager you will unlock access for Underline to serve residents in multi-dwelling units such as apartment buildings, new housing developments, or mixed-use properties (residential and business use). To do this, you will manage and maintain property manager and HOA relationships, negotiate access agreements, network and source business within the El Paso County real estate community, and champion tenant access to Underline services. This role reports to the Market Development Director.
