Why Work Here?

You join a team that values technical excellence, reliability, and collaboration in a dynamic data center environment. The role offers the opportunity to travel with a dedicated crew, with hotels and flights covered, and includes a daily per diem to support living expenses while on assignment. You gain exposure to new construction and refurbishment projects, expanding your skills across power, cooling, racks, and cabling. The project-based nature of the work provides variety and the potential for extended engagement beyond the initial 3–6 month period.

Work Environment

The work environment is primarily on-site in active data centers and construction or refurbishment projects. You work closely with a traveling crew and stay in hotels while on assignment, with travel logistics arranged and covered.

You may work in areas where power and cooling systems are being installed or upgraded, and you use common hand tools and equipment typical of data center construction and maintenance.
