Important - Site Location & Commuting: This role is based at a data center facility in a remote location with no public transportation access. A valid driving license and access to personal transportation are required to commute to the site daily. Please consider this before applying.

Behind every click, stream, and cloud service is real hardware - and someone needs to make sure it gets where it needs to be.

This internship is designed as a potential pathway to full-time employment. Interns who demonstrate strong performance throughout their internship may be considered for a full-time Logistics Specialist position, subject to available roles and business needs.
