Data Centre Fibre Technician L2

We're hiring a Data Centre Fibre Technician to join an on-site technical team supporting a hyperscale data centre operator in Montevideo. You'll be part of a small, hands-on crew responsible for keeping critical fibre and network infrastructure running — installing, maintaining, and troubleshooting equipment inside a live, mission-critical facility.

What you'll do

• Install, replace, and decommission fibre jumpers and cabling within the data centre.
• Carry out rack-and-stack activity, cable routing, labelling, and cable management.
• Work through a daily ticket queue: locate faults, replace components, test and certify connections.
• Coordinate material and parts availability, and flag shortages or alternatives when needed.
• Follow strict standard operating procedures and safety protocols at all times.
• Keep accurate records of work completed, and escalate blockers quickly.

What we're looking for

• A technical, hands-on background — data centre or fibre experience is a plus, but not essential. Backgrounds such as mechanics, cabling/electrical work, or other process-driven technical trades are welcome.
• Comfortable following detailed written procedures and documentation.
• Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach to troubleshooting.
• Able to work independently for extended periods, and equally comfortable being part of a small team.
• Fluent English, spoken and written (this is a hard requirement — the working language of the programme is English).
• Comfortable in an industrial environment: noise, temperature-controlled spaces, and physical work (lifting/moving equipment up to ~50 lbs regularly).
• Certifications such as BICSI, CFOT, or CompTIA A+/Network+ are an advantage but not required.

What's on offer

• Competitive salary, benchmarked to the Montevideo market for this role.
• Structured onboarding and training before go-live.
• The chance to work inside a world-class, mission-critical technical environment.

This role is being hired through Workfully on behalf of our client, a global technology infrastructure services provider. Client identity will be shared later in the process.
