Lead Data Center Network Technician

Locations: Louisiana, Texas & Indiana | Relocation required (fully covered)

The mission

We're building the compute infrastructure that determines who shapes the future of AI. Whoever deploys frontier compute fastest — at gigawatt scale — decides whether that future expands human freedom or narrows it. This is a confidential search on behalf of a company doing exactly that: acquiring power, designing and building data centers, and operating them, faster than anyone else in the market.

Why join

• You're the sole on-site network and ICT resource — full ownership, no committee, no waiting on someone else to make the call
• Work inside live, active build-out — physical-layer issues here hit real customer workloads, and your fix is the fix
• Direct exposure to high-density AI infrastructure and fabrics most technicians never get near
• You set the documentation and escalation standard Network Operations builds on — your fingerprints stay on how the site runs
• Relocation handled end-to-end — you're not solving your own logistics problem on top of a new job

Role scope

• Serve as the on-site Tier 3 escalation point for network and structured-cabling incidents across the site's AI infrastructure
• Troubleshoot, diagnose, and resolve physical-layer faults; validate repairs and drive rapid resolution of issues hitting customer workloads
• Act as the escalation path for Tier 1 and 2 technicians; partner with Network Operations on deeper investigations
• Own structured cabling and fiber infrastructure; interpret device-level diagnostics to confirm a physical repair restored connectivity
• Escalate out-of-scope issues to Network Operations with clear documentation, and own resolution as the sole on-site network and ICT resource

Who we're looking for

• You've been the on-site network or cable-plant specialist in a data center, owning physical-layer troubleshooting end to end
• You know structured cabling and fiber deeply — testing, termination, fault isolation — and read device diagnostics well enough to validate repairs
• You have enough network fundamentals (TCP/IP, switching, optics) to bridge cabling and the network stack
• You operate as the sole escalation resource on-site and take incidents through to resolution
• You document rigorously, so Network Operations can pick up cleanly when an issue exceeds on-site scope
• Bonus: high-density AI or hyperscale fabrics, fiber certification (BICSI, Fluke), optical transport, InfiniBand or high-speed Ethernet

What's required

• Willingness to relocate to Louisiana, Texas or Indiana — the company covers moving costs, housing search, and all logistics
• Comfort operating in a fast-moving, high-trust environment with real stakes attached to your output
