About Optronix
Optronix works across the whole data centre lifecycle. We plan, build, move, run and decommission data centre infrastructure for enterprise, colocation and hyperscale clients.
Our connectivity teams install fibre, copper and racks in multi-megawatt hyperscale and AI data centres, to one method for drawings, testing, labelling and as-built records. We're growing that team across EMEA and Asia-Pacific, and we're hiring a Data Centre Site Lead to run our deployments on site.
The role
You'll lead our data centre connectivity deployments on site, in multi-megawatt hyperscale and AI data halls across EMEA and Asia-Pacific. You run the installation day to day: the crews, the method, the quality and the safety, from the first containment walk to the last link handed over.
What you'll own
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
- Day-to-day delivery on site: crew planning, sequencing and daily targets against the programme
- MPO trunks and breakouts, high-count singlemode and multimode fibre, AOC and DAC, copper and out-of-band, installed to the drawings and port maps
- Quality at every stage: dressing, labelling, end-face inspection and cleaning, testing and certification
- Safety on site: RAMS, permits, inductions and toolbox talks
- Coordination with the client's site team, the main contractor and the other trades
- Progress reported rack by rack, and as-built records that match the hall at handover
What we're looking for
- 5+ years on multi-megawatt hyperscale data centre connectivity deployments, including leading crews on site
- Hands-on with MPO/MTP trunks, cassettes and breakouts, AOC and DAC, and fibre polarity
- Fibre testing and certification (OLTS, OTDR, end-face inspection) and the records that go with it
- Comfortable working from drawings, rack elevations and port maps, and managing change on site
- Calm and decisive when the programme gets tight, with a strong safety record
- A valid passport, and happy to spend extended periods on site across EMEA and APAC
