Data Center Hardware Engineer - Hands-on HPC Rack Specialist

Firstminute Capital; Paris; Vor Ort; EUR 42.000 - 62.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Mistral is hiring Data Center Hardware Engineers (L1-L3) to keep our GPU/CPU clusters healthy, safe and growing — hands-on, in the data center, at the intersection of high-performance computing and physical infrastructure. Location: On-site at one of our data centers in the Paris region.

You'll diagnose, repair and manage hardware across servers, memory, drives, NICs and interconnects, with responsibility end-to-end and collaboration within a small, senior team.

Qualifikationen

• Hands-on comfort in data centers or server hardware; you can work cleanly in racks.
• Disciplined and meticulous; checklists are craftsmanship.
• Practical electrical basics: power-off procedures, PPE, short-circuit risk awareness.
• Basic Linux (boot checks, logs) — scripting is a plus, not a requirement.
• Physically able to work in racks (lift, mount, maneuver) in a data center environment.
• Willingness to operate in a 24/7 environment with on-call duties.
• Driver's license (B) for travel between sites.

Aufgaben

• Diagnose & repair server and cluster hardware: CPUs, memory, drives, NICs, GPUs, PSUs, and interconnect problems (switches, cables, transceivers; Ethernet/InfiniBand).
• Intervene safely — power-off/lockout, ESD discipline, pre/post-work checklists, tidy and safe work areas.
• Capture everything — photos, serials, test results; open, update and close tickets with notes for the next engineer.
• Manage parts — receive, label and track inventory; run RMAs and coordinate with vendors.
• Help us get better — feed recurring anomalies into monitoring, alerts and SOPs; contribute small scripts (Python/Bash) if you have those skills.
• Be a good teammate — clear status updates, honest handovers, and respect for the people depending on the cluster.
