About the role

NETS USA is hiring fibre technicians for an ongoing fibre patching operation inside a major hyperscale data centre. You will join a team of three technicians working under an on-site Lead Engineer. You will install, route, label, clean, test and remediate fibre to strict quality standards.

What you'll do

•       Install, route and remove fibre according to provided blueprints, with typical runs up to about 42 metres

•       Label every fibre to the customer's approved standard (Brady labelling system)

•       Clean and inspect (scope) fibre end-faces before every connection

•       Carry out OTDR testing and record the results accurately

•       Work through a ticket queue assigned by the Lead Engineer and track each task against its reference number

•       Do QA checks and fix any issues found

•       When there are no active tickets, remediate existing fibre: correct labels, routing and cleanliness, and keep trays tidy (initial remediation is expected to take about 6 weeks)

•       Follow all site safety, security and fibre-handling procedures

What you need

•       1–3+ years of hands-on fibre or structured cabling experience, ideally in a data centre, colocation or telecom environment

•       Practical experience with fibre cleaning and inspection scopes, patching and cable management

•       Experience using an OTDR, or the ability to learn it quickly (OTDR units are provided on site)

•       Ability to read rack elevations, blueprints and cabling diagrams

•       Strong written and spoken English, including clear ticket updates and test records

•       Careful, methodical working and pride in tidy, standards-compliant work

•       Your own basic hand tools for fibre and cabling work (specialist test equipment is provided)

•       Ability to pass a criminal background check, plus any site security clearance the customer requires

•       Able to stand, bend, lift up to 50 lb and work in raised-floor and overhead tray environments

Preferred

•       FOA CFOT, BICSI Installer or a manufacturer fibre certification

•       Experience with a ticketing or work-order system

•       Previous work at a hyperscale or colocation site
