Full-Time Traveling Data Center Low Voltage Network Specialist

Full-Time Traveling Data Center Low Voltage Network Specialist – Paid Training
Location: Nationwide travel | Meta data center projects
Pay: $20/hr + $30/hr overtime
Per Diem: $1,400+/month, untaxed
Schedule: 60–72 hours per week

Have you been trying to break into IT, networking, infrastructure, or data center work—but keep running into roles that require experience you have not yet had the chance to build? This is an entry point into the physical network infrastructure side of the technology industry.

This is not a desktop support, help desk, or software role. It is hands-on technical work inside major Meta data centers, where you will support the network cabling, validation, documentation, and readiness processes behind large-scale infrastructure. You’ll receive paid training, work alongside Meta employees and experienced field teams, and gain practical experience that can strengthen your path toward future data center, network technician, infrastructure, and operations opportunities. Hands-on cabling, troubleshooting, documentation, and standardized-procedure experience are core skills in early data center technical roles.datacenterknowledge+1

What you’ll do

• Execute network audits and verify that installed infrastructure matches drawings, labels, and site requirements.
• Validate structured cabling infrastructure and support network provisioning readiness across data center environments.
• Perform cable and network testing, document results, and identify issues requiring correction or escalation.
• Assist in troubleshooting connectivity issues by tracing cable paths, checking labels and terminations, and reporting findings to leads or network teams.
• Pull, route, secure, dress, label, and terminate copper and fiber cabling, including Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6A, and fiber-optic runs.
• Install and organize cable pathways such as ladder racks, trays, J-hooks, and related support infrastructure.
• Support rack-and-stack activity, patching, cable management, and equipment-room organization in data halls, IDFs, MDFs, and network cabinets.
• Follow quality-control, documentation, safety, and cleanliness standards in a mission-critical facility. Clean cable routing, correct labeling, and testing are essential to supporting performance and efficient issue resolution.internationalwire+2

Who this fits

• Candidates pursuing a future in IT, networking, cloud infrastructure, data centers, or technical operations.
• Recent IT, computer networking, computer science, engineering, telecommunications, or trade-school graduates.
• Candidates with CompTIA A+, Network+, CCNA coursework, home-lab experience, cabling exposure, or a strong interest in networking fundamentals.
• People who are comfortable beginning with the physical layer—the cabling, racks, pathways, labeling, validation, and documentation that keep network infrastructure organized and ready for use.
• Candidates who understand that this role provides relevant technical infrastructure experience, but does not guarantee progression into a specific IT job or direct employment with Meta.
• Must reside in the Phoenix area, as the training is in Arizona.

Requirements

• No prior data center or low-voltage experience is required; paid training is provided.
• Ability and willingness to travel nationwide for project assignments.
• Availability to work 60–72 hours per week, including overtime as project schedules require.
• Strong attention to detail, comfort following documented procedures, and an interest in technical problem-solving.
• Ability to work on ladders, lift up to 50 lbs, and stay active throughout the shift.
• Reliable transportation, a valid driver’s license, and professional, dependable attendance.

Pay and travel details

• $20/hr regular pay
• $30/hr overtime pay
• $1,400+/month untaxed per diem while traveling
• Paid training before project placement
• Full-time, high-hour schedule of 60–72 hours weekly

Build relevant technical experience

Data center work combines physical infrastructure, network fundamentals, documentation discipline, equipment organization, and troubleshooting.
