What is a Data Destruction job?

A Data Destruction job involves securely erasing, shredding, or otherwise eliminating sensitive digital or physical data to prevent unauthorized access or recovery. Professionals in this field use specialized software, degaussers, or physical destruction methods to ensure compliance with data privacy laws and regulations. This role is essential for companies handling sensitive information, such as financial records, personal data, or proprietary business information.

What are the typical daily responsibilities for someone working in data destruction?

In a data destruction role, your daily tasks often include receiving, inventorying, and securely destroying hard drives, storage devices, or physical documents using approved methods and equipment. You'll document each step to comply with regulatory and client requirements, sometimes providing certificates of destruction. The position typically requires close collaboration with IT teams, logistics staff, and sometimes external vendors to ensure all data is handled according to company policies and legal standards. Attention to confidentiality and following detailed protocols are a must, as you may regularly encounter sensitive information.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Data Destruction position, and why are they important?

To excel in Data Destruction, you need a keen understanding of data privacy regulations, strong attention to detail, and experience with secure data wiping or physical destruction techniques, often supported by a high school diploma or equivalent. Familiarity with industry tools such as degaussers, shredders, and software-based erasure solutions, as well as certifications like NAID AAA or CompTIA Security+, is often preferred. Dependability, integrity, and clear communication are vital soft skills, as trustworthiness and adherence to strict protocols are essential in this role. These capabilities ensure sensitive data is completely and compliantly destroyed, protecting organizational and customer information from breach or misuse.

Job description

Phiston Technologies is hiring a Warehouse Technician for 2nd shift (10:00 AM – 7:00 PM) at our Virginia facility. This role keeps our data destruction operation running smoothly by handling in-warehouse shredding and preparing/resetting equipment as field crews return from client sites — so our mobile teams can head home at the end of a job instead of coming back to clean up.

If you're mechanically inclined, reliable, and comfortable in a fast-paced warehouse environment, we want to talk to you.

What You'll Do

  • Operate industrial hard drive shredding equipment in the warehouse
  • Receive and process materials from mobile shred trucks returning from client sites
  • Clean, inspect, and reset shredders and trucks for the next day's field deployments
  • Load/unload materials and equipment
  • Perform basic equipment troubleshooting and minor repairs
  • Support generator maintenance and readiness for mobile operations
  • Maintain warehouse organization and inventory
  • Complete daily reports and Certificates of Destruction
  • Follow strict safety and security protocols (NAID AAA standards)

What We're Looking For

  • Valid driver's license
  • Warehouse, industrial, or equipment operation experience preferred
  • Strong mechanical aptitude
  • Comfortable with physical work (lifting 50+ lbs)
  • Detail-oriented and security-focused
  • Clean background required

Why Work at Phiston?

  • Stable, growing technology company
  • Hands-on technical work with industry-leading equipment
  • Consistent, predictable warehouse-based schedule
  • Competitive pay + benefits
  • Advancement opportunities
