About the Role

Giga is building gigawatts of AI data centers to hasten a future of intelligence and abundance. We are seeking a skilled and hands-on Data Center Facilities Technician with facilities experience to manage the operations of our pilot data center. This role requires a proactive individual who can perform mechanical work, oversee the maintenance of equipment, and coordinate with subcontractors as needed.

Responsibilities

• Oversee the daily operations of the data center, ensuring all systems function optimally.
• Monitor and maintain air-cooled chillers, CDU systems and fan coils.
• Perform hands-on mechanical tasks, including maintenance, repairs, and troubleshooting of facility systems.
• Conduct routine inspections to identify and resolve potential issues before they escalate.
• Engage and coordinate with subcontractors for specialized tasks or repairs.
• Serve as the primary point of contact for all facility-related inquiries and issues.
• Maintain accurate records of maintenance activities, equipment performance, and service requests.
• Assist in developing standard operating procedures (SOPs) for facility operations.
• Ensure compliance with safety regulations and best practices within the facility.
• Promote a safe working environment for all personnel and visitors.

Requirements

• High school diploma or equivalent; technical certification in facilities management, HVAC, or related field preferred.
• Minimum of 3 years of experience in facilities management or data center operations.
• Hands-on experience with mechanical systems, cooling technologies, and electrical systems.
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving abilities.
• Excellent communication skills for effective collaboration with team members and subcontractors.
• Ability to work independently and manage multiple tasks efficiently.
• Relevant certifications in HVAC, electrical systems, or facilities management are a plus.
• Proficiency with "filling and infilling" (often referred to as commissioning and topping off) using specialized equipment like the Liquid Cooling Cart.
• Performing full rack fills, drains, and air purges to remove trapped air.
• Handling 60-liter reservoirs and managing separate "new" vs. "used" fluid to prevent contamination.
• Experience with PG25 specifically, which is often dyed fluorescent yellow-green for rapid visual leak detection.
• Technicians must monitor pressure drops and flow rates, as PG25’s viscosity can sometimes mask small leaks.
• Awareness of "wetted materials" like copper cold plates, brass, and polymer piping (PP or PVDF) to prevent corrosion or biofouling.
• Ability to service Coolant Distribution Units (CDUs) and rack manifolds, including the use of Quick Disconnect (QD) or LQC connectors for spill-free maintenance.
