At Verda, we're building a fully featured European AI cloud, covering everything needed to train, experiment with, and deploy AI models at scale.
We are a full-stack AI infrastructure company, meaning we design, operate, and optimize the compute powering modern AI workloads across training and inference. Our infrastructure runs on 100% renewable energy, helping build a more sustainable AI ecosystem.
Join Verda while it’s still being built - not once it’s finished.
About The Role
You will own how Verda's data center technicians learn their craft: onboarding, training, and the documentation behind both, across every site. As we grow, you make sure that a technician anywhere in our footprint is trained to the same standard, qualified for the work in front of them, and working from documentation that is actually current.
What You’ll Do
- Build the onboarding program that takes a new technician from their first day to independently productive, and the competency framework that defines what "qualified" means for each task they perform
- Develop and maintain the training curriculum across the full range of work our technicians do — IT hardware handling and rack-and-stack, structured cabling and patching, network operations, liquid-cooling handling, and low-voltage electrical safety — alongside the site-specific procedures each location requires
- Make sure technicians hold the certifications and safety qualifications their work demands, tracking currency and renewals so nothing lapses unnoticed
- Run both hands-on and classroom training, then measure whether it stuck through assessments and sign-offs rather than attendance sheets
- Own the documentation loop: keep SOPs, runbooks, and training materials accurate and versioned as hardware and procedures evolve, partnering with Operations, Hardware, Networking, Safety, and Architecture to catch changes before they reach the floor
- Manage the training records and reporting that show, at any moment, who is trained and qualified for what
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Representative projects: build the technician onboarding program end to end; define the competency matrix that says exactly which technician is qualified for which task across every site; stand up the training-records and certification-tracking system; establish the documentation-maintenance loop that keeps SOPs and training materials current
What We’re Looking For
- Experience building technical training or onboarding programs for hands-on technical staff — data center, manufacturing, field service, aviation, or similar
- Ability to turn expert and tribal knowledge into structured curriculum, competency frameworks, and assessments
- Strong documentation discipline — keeping SOPs and training materials versioned, accurate, and current
- Enough familiarity with the work data center technicians do (hardware, cabling, networking, and the safety context around liquid cooling and low-voltage electrical) to build credible training, partnering with subject-matter experts for depth
- Understanding of certification and safety-qualification tracking, and compliance reporting
- Experience delivering hands-on training and measuring whether it actually changed how people work
- Comfort running an LMS or training-records system as a source of truth
- Bias toward speed and ownership — comfortable building a program from scratch and driving it to adoption
