Our team works with leading enterprises and technology organizations to deploy and support critical infrastructure—from racks, power, and structured cabling to connectivity, out-of-band management, and ongoing data center services.

We are looking for a Data Center Technician to join our growing services team in Minnesota. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys working with technology, solving problems in the field, and delivering high-quality work in mission-critical customer environments.

Provide on-site smart-hands and remote-hands support for customers and Mirapath technical teams.

Support installation and connectivity of racks, PDUs, console servers, KVM systems, and related data center infrastructure.

Execute work according to approved scopes of work, installation standards, customer procedures, and change-control requirements.

Perform equipment and rack audits and verify hardware placement, labeling, cabling, and connectivity against project documentation.
