IT Engineer, Data Center
Build and automate on-site IT infrastructure (networks, identity, endpoints) for gigawatt-scale AI data center campuses. Own multi-tenant security, repeatable deployments, and rapid incident response for fast-growing field/construction teams.
About the job
Role Scope
- Build and run the on-site IT infrastructure at gigawatt-scale data center campuses, from corporate network and Wi-Fi to badge systems, conference rooms, and edge compute, so a new site is operational the day the first team arrives.
- Automate provisioning of endpoints, identity, and access across a workforce growing 10x, so device setup and offboarding run as version-controlled code rather than manual tickets.
- Own the multi-site IT stack that keeps teams, contractors, and customers cleanly separated and secure, coordinating with the security team on access controls and network segmentation.
- Stand up repeatable IT deployment runbooks for each new campus so the tenth site comes online faster and cleaner than the first.
- Resolve on-site incidents and unblock field and construction teams directly, closing the gap between a reported issue and a working system in hours, not days.
What We're Looking For
- You've built and run IT infrastructure across multiple physical sites, standing up networks, identity, and endpoint management from nothing rather than inheriting a mature environment.
- You've automated IT operations with code (scripting, infrastructure-as-code, MDM policy as code) so that a task done twice by hand became software.
- You've owned identity and access management (SSO, SCIM, directory services) for a fast-growing organization without letting access sprawl or offboarding gaps accumulate.
- You've been the person field, construction, or operations teams call when systems are down on site, and you've resolved incidents under time pressure with people waiting on you.
- You've designed multi-tenant or segmented network environments that kept separate teams, sites, or customers secure without slowing anyone down.
- You write documentation and runbooks clear enough that the next engineer can stand up a site without asking you how.
- Bonus: Data center or industrial site IT experience. Hands-on networking (BGP, VLANs, firewalls) at scale. Okta, Jamf, or Intune administration. Security or compliance framework exposure (SOC 2, ISO 27001).
