We are looking for an experienced DC Fibre & Cabling Engineer to support the design, coordination and delivery of cabling infrastructure across new and existing data centre environments.
This is an opportunity to work with a global technology infrastructure organisation with an international presence, supporting complex, mission-critical data centre environments and high-density connectivity requirements.
The Role
- Manage and coordinate fibre and structured cabling requirements for new and existing data centres, ensuring designs align with established engineering standards.
- Prepare and review cabling designs, technical specifications, scopes of work and tender documentation, including technical support for vendor evaluation.
- Coordinate with network, server, security and data centre operations teams to consolidate requirements and deliver cabling solutions effectively.
- Oversee project activities including budget tracking, vendor coordination, design/shop drawing reviews, logistics, scheduling, installation, testing, commissioning and handover.
- Support Move, Add and Change (MAC) activities within live data centre environments and maintain accurate patching records, as-built drawings and operational documentation.
- Provide coordination support outside normal business hours when required for vendor installation, testing, commissioning or handover activities.
Requirements
- Strong experience in data centre fibre and structured cabling, preferably within mission-critical, enterprise or regulated environments.
- Good knowledge of Cat6A copper, OS2 and OM4+ fibre, high-density fibre cassette solutions, data centre racks, cabinets and patching systems.
- Practical knowledge of LC and MPO/MTP interfaces for single-mode and multimode fibre, together with industry-standard testing methodologies and ISO/TIA standards.
- Familiarity with Fluke Networks cable analysers (DSX-5000/8000) and ability to produce/review technical cabling designs using AutoCAD.
- Experience working safely within live data centre environments, with strong project coordination, documentation and reporting skills.
- Familiarity with RCDD standards and Cisco/Arista networking environments would be advantageous.
If you have experience delivering and coordinating complex cabling infrastructure in data centre or mission-critical environments and are looking to work on large-scale international technology infrastructure projects, we would like to hear from you.
