About the job

Our client isn’t just a software company. The Hardware Operations team is responsible for monitoring the state-of-the-art physical infrastructure behind our client’s powerful search technology. As an Operations Technician, you’ll install, configure, test, troubleshoot and maintain hardware (like servers and its components) and server software (like their Linux cluster). You’ll also take on the configuration of more complex components such as networks, routers, hubs, bridges, switches and networking protocols. You’ll participate in or lead small project teams on larger installations and develop project contingency plans. A typical day involves manual movement and installation of racks, and while it can sometimes be physically demanding, you are excited to work with infrastructure that is at the cutting-edge of computer technology.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of data center platforms, we make their product portfolio possible. We’re proud to be our engineers’ engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible.

Responsibilities

• Contribute to and lead efforts/projects in the deployment, maintenance, and support of our client’s Cloud region (e.g., cloud data center) infrastructure.
• Lead troubleshooting and resolve critical or escalated technical issues regarding affected equipment.
• Diagnose and repair broken equipment, including servers, networking and storage devices.
• Install and maintain switches, routers, and other large-scale networking gear.
• Resolve technical issues (e.g., hardware, software, application, operational, process) using different tools until final resolution communicating with different stakeholders.
