  • Install, route, terminate, and dress copper and fiber cabling while ensuring proper labeling, cable management, and adherence to quality standards.
  • Install rack power distribution units (PDUs), connect equipment to assigned power sources, and verify proper power and management connectivity.
  • Perform equipment provisioning, hardware component installation, and out-of-band (OOB) management connections.
  • Execute basic testing and validation activities, including continuity testing, fiber verification, and standard equipment turn-up procedures.
  • Perform moves, adds, changes, disconnects (MACD activities), and standard field-replaceable unit (FRU) replacements following approved procedures.
  • Maintain accurate installation records, test results, inventory updates, and as-built documentation.
  • Identify and escalate design concerns, operational issues, and safety risks to senior technicians or site leadership.
 
The Skills You Bring
  • High school diploma, technical certification, vocational training, or equivalent experience required.
  • 2+ years of experience in data center operations, structured cabling, telecommunications, field services, or IT infrastructure support.
  • Working knowledge of data center hardware, racks, servers, networking equipment, power distribution systems, and structured cabling.
  • Understanding of copper and fiber cabling practices, basic optical networking concepts, and installation standards.
  • Ability to interpret engineering drawings, installation documentation, and methods of procedure (MOPs).
  • Experience performing rack-and-stack, cabling, testing, and equipment installation activities with minimal supervision.
  • Strong attention to detail, organizational skills, and commitment to quality and safety.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with technicians, project teams, vendors, and customers while managing assigned work independently.
 
Physical requirements
  • Comfortable working in a physically active environment where lifting, standing, working at heights, and moving equipment may be required.
  • Ability to work on ladders or elevated work platforms and comply with all applicable safety requirements and certifications.
  • Ability to lift and move equipment up to 50 lbs.
