We're looking for a dependable, detail-oriented Data Center Technician to support day-to-day operations at a growing Phoenix-area data center.

  • Provide "smart hands" support for remote engineers and customers within defined SLA response times
  • Monitor system and environmental performance (power, cooling, capacity utilization) and escalate anomalies
  • Troubleshoot and resolve basic hardware, cabling, and connectivity issues; escalate complex issues as needed
  • Complete work orders, asset tracking, and ticket documentation accurately and on time
  • Maintain a clean, safe, and secure data center floor — including cabinet/rack exteriors, workbenches, and raised-floor areas
  • Escort vendors and clients on-site per security protocol
  • Follow all safety procedures and immediately report any violations or hazards
  • Support audits, inventory checks, and daily work log maintenance
  • Participate in on-call rotation as needed for off-hours incident response

  • Comfortable with ticketing systems and technical documentation
  • Ability to lift/move equipment up to 50 lbs and work in a physically active environment
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently or as part of a team
