Job Description
Role Overview

As a member of Data Center Operations, you will help maintain Teraswitch infrastructure and provide operational coverage during overnight and weekend hours. You will respond to customer and internal requests, monitor active infrastructure issues, perform hands-on work at our Pittsburgh facility, and coordinate work at remote data center locations.

What You Will Do

Monitor infrastructure alerts, support requests, and active operational issues.

  • Ability to coordinate technical work with remote-hands providers, contractors, vendors, and internal teams.
  • Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills.
  • Strong organizational and time-management skills.
  • Clear written and verbal communication.
  • Ability to safely lift, move, rack, and work around data center equipment.
