About The Role

In addition to hardware and network repair, interns will learn how to install equipment, create documentation, innovate solutions, and fix complex problems within the data centre space.
Duties Include

This position requires the intern to report to work onsite on a daily basis.
Intern schedules are typically day schedules, Sunday–Thursday (9am to 5pm).
Interns who successfully complete the internship and demonstrate strong performance may be considered for a full-time Data Center Technician position, subject to role availability and business needs.
Please note that full-time Data Center Technician roles operate on a rotating shift pattern, which may include days, evenings, nights, weekends, and public holidays, as well as on-call rotations.
