What We Are Looking For :
This role is primarily rack and stack of Cisco network equipment. We’re adding six techs to support a major switch refresh at a premier sports and entertainment venue in Foxborough, MA. You’ll mount switches, connect power, stacking, copper, and fiber, then confirm the rack position and ports with the network engineer by phone and verify that each switch comes up.

Configuration is handled by the engineering team, so this is hands-on hardware work, not network design or programming. The right person has done rack and stack before, follows instructions precisely, and keeps closets clean and well labeled. Fully onsite, standard business hours, starting January 2027.

What You Will Do:

Rack and stack Cisco switches and related network equipment in IDFs, MDFs, and network closets. Connect power, stack cables, copper Ethernet, fiber, and optics to the ports specified by the engineering team. Coordinate by phone with network engineers or the NOC to confirm rack placement, port connections, and that each device comes up. Stage switches and prepare equipment for production deployment.

Prepare network closets, IDFs, and MDFs for installations and equipment replacements. Install and verify power, stack cables, copper Ethernet, fiber, optics, and physical connectivity. Perform equipment swaps, hardware refreshes, and scheduled cutover activities. Verify cabling, link status, power, and basic device connectivity during deployment. Perform basic troubleshooting and escalate configuration or engineering issues when necessary. Label, organize, and document equipment, cables, ports, and connections.

Follow implementation plans, runbooks, change procedures, and deployment checklists. Handle high-value network equipment carefully, including switches, optics, transceivers, power supplies, and stacking components. Coordinate with network engineers, project teams, and onsite personnel during deployments and cutovers. Maintain an organized and safe work environment within network closets and deployment locations. What We Provide:
