Responsibilities

  • Act as senior escalation point for data center infrastructure incidents, physical network failures, and complex on-site / colocation issues.
  • Own the design, deployment, and operation of data center physical infrastructure including networking, server platforms, power, and cooling.
  • Architecture and design of data center layouts, rack elevations, circuit diversity, and hardware platforms. Create and maintain Lucidchart diagrams, rack layouts, power maps, cabling plans, and low-level design documentation.
  • Design, deploy, and operate data center networking including spine / leaf fabrics, OOB management, WAN / DCI connectivity, and multicast domains.
  • Configuration and administration of switches, routers, OOB systems, and Linux-based bare-metal platforms.
  • 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.
  • Work directly with remote hands, colocation providers, and hardware vendors to execute deployments, audits, and incident response.
  • Install and maintain Linux on bare-metal platforms. Deploy and recover network operating systems and server firmware.
  • Troubleshoot L1–L4 faults including optics, cabling, MTU, packet loss, multicast instability, and hardware performance issues.

  • Utilize network and infrastructure monitoring systems to detect and remediate bottlenecks and failures.
  • 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).
  • Proven experience assembling, deploying, and troubleshooting enterprise server platforms.
  • 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.
  • Nice to Have

  • Experience with video transport systems and standards (MPEG-TS, ST 2110, HLS, SRT).
  • Familiarity with PTP, precision timing, or broadcast-grade IP video environments.
  • Experience with GPU-based or ASIC-based video processing platforms.
  • Ability to analyze optical performance (DOM, attenuation, light budgets).
  • Experience using AI automation to support bare-metal provisioning and inventory systems.
  • Please be advised
