About the Role

We are hiring Entry-Level Cable Technicians / Installers to support a large-scale, long-term data center infrastructure project. This is an excellent opportunity to get your foot in the door with a rapidly growing industry and gain hands-on experience in structured cabling and fiber environments.

You’ll work alongside experienced technicians, learning the fundamentals of low-voltage installation while contributing to high-impact, mission-critical builds.

What You’ll Be Doing
  • Pull, route, dress, and label Cat5e/Cat6 cable following industry standards (TIA/EIA)
  • Assist with RJ45 terminations and patch panel work
  • Perform basic punch-downs for telecom systems with training and guidance
  • Support cable labeling, organization, and identification processes
  • Assist with cable testing using tools like Fluke and EXFO (training provided)
  • Gain exposure to fiber optic cable handling and routing
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work environment
  • Follow instructions from senior technicians and supervisors
Skills & Experience We’re Looking For

    • Low-voltage cabling

    • Construction or hands-on labor environments
  • Willingness to learn structured cabling and telecom installation practices
  • Ability to work on your feet, lift materials, and perform physical tasks
  • Strong work ethic, reliability, and attention to detail
Preferred Background
  • Experience with:
    • Cable termination or punch-downs
    • Construction, warehouse, or labor-intensive roles
  • Interest in building a career in telecommunications, data centers, or IT infrastructure
Additional Requirements
  • Must be able to work at all three locations: Dublin, Hilliard, and New Albany
  • Must not have previously been employed on-site (including warehouse or delivery roles)
  • Ability to pass required onboarding screenings
Why This Opportunity Stands Out

✅ Entry-level friendly with hands-on training and mentorship

✅ Long-term, stable work with contract-to-hire potential

✅ Gain experience in data center and fiber environments

✅ High-demand career path with strong growth opportunities

✅ Work on large, cutting-edge infrastructure projects

Who Should Apply
  • Entry-level candidates looking to break into IT, telecom, or data center work
  • Individuals with construction or warehouse experience seeking a career upgrade
  • Hardworking, dependable candidates eager to learn a technical trade
