Description du poste

Data Centre Operations Engineer – AI / GPU Infrastructure

We’re supporting the rapid expansion of a major new AI infrastructure operation in Paris‑Saclay and are looking for Data Centre Operations Engineers to join a growing engineering team.

This is a large‑scale, high‑density compute environment built around the latest generation of GPU infrastructure. The operation uses modern direct liquid cooling and high‑density power distribution, creating an opportunity to work with technology that is still relatively rare across conventional data centres.

Several engineers are being hired, so we’re interested in different levels of experience. You might be an experienced Data Centre Engineer with strong technical depth, or a hands‑on engineer looking to develop further into AI and GPU infrastructure.

What you’ll be doing

• Deploying, maintaining and troubleshooting data‑centre hardware
• Server and GPU hardware break/fix and component replacement
• Rack installation, cabling and hardware configuration
• Responding to hardware incidents against demanding customer SLAs
• Supporting high‑density compute infrastructure
• Working around direct liquid cooling and chilled‑water systems
• Supporting high‑density power distribution and busbar systems
• Firmware upgrades and hardware fault isolation
• Maintaining accurate infrastructure and capacity records
• Working closely with HPC, network and infrastructure engineering teams

What we’re looking for

You should have genuine hands‑on experience working within a data‑centre, HPC or similarly high‑density compute environment.

Experience in any of the following would be particularly interesting:

• Data‑centre operations and maintenance
• Server hardware installation and break/fix
• GPU or HPC infrastructure
• High‑density compute environments
• CDUs and chilled‑water cooling
• HVAC within data‑centre environments
• Busbar / busway power distribution
• Hyperscale or colocation data centres

You do not need experience across all of these areas. Strong conventional data‑centre engineers who are genuinely interested in developing into AI infrastructure are encouraged to apply.

We’re particularly interested in engineers who demonstrate genuine technical curiosity. AI infrastructure is developing quickly, so we’d like to meet people who actively learn about the technology rather than simply operate what’s already in front of them.

Requirements

• Fluent French
• English to B2 level or above
• Existing right to work in France
• Able to work on‑site in Paris‑Saclay
• No visa sponsorship or relocation support is available

Package

€80,000 base salary DoE + 30% bonus

There may be flexibility for exceptional candidates with particularly relevant GPU, high‑density compute or liquid‑cooling expertise.

This is an opportunity to join an engineering team at an early stage of a substantial AI infrastructure expansion, working directly with some of the newest GPU, cooling and high‑density data‑centre technologies.
