  • Build, assemble, install, cable, and commission servers and network equipment in colocation and private data center environments.
  • Own server hardware lifecycle : platform design, component selection, firmware strategy, imaging workflows, burn-in, and field diagnostics.
  • Read and interpret electrical single-line diagrams, power distribution layouts, and breaker panels. Work with UPS systems, PDUs, and colocation electrical teams to validate redundancy and loading.
  • Maintain operational awareness of HVAC systems, airflow design, rack density, and environmental monitoring. Understand and evaluate cooling and power failure modes.

  • Provide structured technical breakdowns of incidents and risks to operations and leadership teams.

Qualifications

  • Expert knowledge of data center networking (routing, switching, multicast) with strong real-world operational experience.
  • CCNP or equivalent practical experience required; CCIE or advanced vendor certifications are a strong asset.
  • In-depth experience designing and operating data center networks including BGP, OSPF, VLAN / EVPN, PIM, and large-scale L2 / L3 environments.
  • Strong hands-on background with enterprise switching platforms (Cisco Nexus / Catalyst, Arista, Juniper, or equivalent).

  • Strong understanding of electrical power systems including A / B feeds, UPS architecture, PDUs, load planning, and breaker layouts.
  • Working knowledge of HVAC principles, containment strategies, and environmental monitoring.
  • Experience working with multiple colocation providers and managing remote facilities.
  • Strong Linux administration skills (Ubuntu / CentOS), including bare-metal deployment and low-level troubleshooting.
  • Demonstrated experience troubleshooting multicast video traffic in production environments.
  • Ability to work independently in critical situations and coordinate multi-party technical response.
  • Strong documentation and technical communication skills.
  • Willingness to work extended hours when required for maintenance activities and infrastructure incidents.

  • Familiarity with PTP, precision timing, or broadcast-grade IP video environments.
  • Experience with GPU-based or ASIC-based video processing platforms.
