Data Center Operator
The Data Center Operator (DCO) is a facilities‑focused role that is responsible for the operational integrity, commissioning, and regulatory compliance of the electrical power, mechanical, monitoring and control systems, and the processes that maximize customer uptime in the most cost‑effective way for highly available, concurrently maintainable, fault tolerant mission‑critical data center environments.

The DCO is responsible for ensuring that all electrical, mechanical, and fire/life safety equipment within the data center are operating at peak efficiency and the utmost levels of reliability. This involves both planned preventative maintenance of equipment, daily corrective work, and response to emergency issues. The DCO is our front line when it comes to hands‑on electrical and mechanical equipment troubleshooting.

The DCO serves as an expert, highly capable technical resource, reporting to the Site Manager and interacting with onsite Multi‑Skilled Operators (MSO) and any third‑party vendors. They are expected to be a singular focal point for all facility operations within a given data center. Data center equipment that supports mission‑critical servers must maintain better than 99.999% uptime. This equipment includes, but is not limited to standby diesel generators, related fuel systems, electrical switch gear, UPSs, PDUs, AHUs, related thermal management equipment and systems, chemical treatment systems (where applicable), pumps, motors, VFDs, and building automation systems.
