- Operate diagnostic instrumentation (multimeters, megohmmeters, manometers, IR cameras, refrigerant recovery, flow meters, pressure transducers); lead pressure testing, flow balancing, fluid fills, leak checks, and acceptance testing during commissioning
- Read and work from electrical schematics, P&IDs, mechanical drawings, and sequence‑of‑operations documents; redline drawings when as‑built conditions differ from design
- Coordinate work within mission‑critical 24x7 data center environments including UPS, PDU, generators, ATS, BMS/DCIM, CRAC/CRAH, fire suppression, and chilled‑water plant; adhere to badge access, escort, change‑control, and chain‑of‑custody policies at every customer site
- Act as Liquid Stack’s senior technical representative at customer sites; communicate clearly and calmly with customer IT, facilities, engineering, and management stakeholders at the appropriate level of detail, especially during critical infrastructure events
- Support customer acceptance testing and formal system handover
- Deliver basic operational training and system overviews to customer technical teams; field technical questions and represent product capability accurately
- Complete detailed service reports, commissioning documentation, and root‑cause analyses
- Partner with Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality and Supply Chain to resolve recurring field issues; contribute to service procedures, checklist, and training materials
- Use service ticketing systems (e.g., Service Now, Salesforce Field Service, or equivalent) to track work, log time against tasks, document resolutions, and ensure timely closure; maintain SLA compliance and clean shift handoffs to ensure continuity of operations
- Train junior FST's and customer‑side data center technicians on Liquid Stack equipment, troubleshooting, and best practices; lead pre‑job briefing, JSAs, and post‑job debriefs; serve as on‑site escalation point during complex troubleshooting; communicate status, blockers, and lessons learned across the service team
