Are you the person your friends call when they need to build a custom PC or upgrade their graphics card? If you have a passion for computer hardware and love taking machines apart just to put them back together, we want to turn your hobby into a career. You don’t need years of corporate IT experience—if you know your way around a motherboard and a CPU cooler, we will teach you the rest!
Job Purpose:
The Data Center Technician ensures that server, storage, network, power, and cooling systems perform optimally. By maintaining the Data Center this role would prevent loss of data, damage to equipment, and ensure the 5 9’s principal (99.999% uptime environment).

Responsibilities:
- Racking, stacking, and physically assembling servers and network equipment (cable management enthusiasts welcome!).

- Provide assistance to Data Center Provisioning, Data Center Infrastructure, and Network Engineering as needed
