Datacenter Technician

We are hiring a skilled Data Center Optical Technician to support critical telecom infrastructure within a live production environment. This position requires strong hands-on experience working with fiber, transport equipment, and structured cabling inside large-scale data centers.

If you thrive in fast-paced network environments and are comfortable working directly with infrastructure, this opportunity offers long-term stability and high-impact technical exposure.

The technician will support installation, troubleshooting, maintenance, and operational activities across optical and IP transport systems. This is a field-based data center role requiring shift flexibility and adherence to strict operational procedures.

• Perform real-time troubleshooting within active data center environments.
• Support after-hours maintenance windows and emergency response activities.
• Coordinate with remote engineering teams to restore services efficiently.
• Execute installation tasks based on approved procedures and technical documentation.
