About The Position

GTA Data Centers is seeking a Facility Mechanical Technician to protect and maintain major generator and mechanical support assets across our data centers. This role focuses on generator maintenance and repair, load-bank support, fuel readiness, small engine and pump work, forklift maintenance coordination, light fabrication, vendor oversight, and maintenance evidence. It's an ideal opportunity for a hands-on mechanical technician who wants to build a specialty in critical infrastructure—where your work keeps generators ready to fire when every second counts. As a Facility Mechanical Technician at GTA Data Centers, you'll own day-to-day generator and mechanical support systems, troubleshooting issues before they impact operations and ensuring critical backup power stays ready. Your day-to-day will include: Own day-to-day generator maintenance and repair execution across assigned data center sites within qualification limits. Inspect generators, fuel systems, starting systems, batteries, controls, enclosures, exhaust, cooling, and related support equipment. Troubleshoot generator alarms, failed starts, abnormal readings, leaks, vibration, overheating, fuel concerns, and control faults within qualification limits. Perform or coordinate generator repairs, parts replacement, adjustments, and corrective maintenance according to approved work boundaries. Maintain generator PM schedules, run-hour records, inspection logs, maintenance history, service reports, and readiness evidence. Plan and support generator load-bank testing with the Facility Engineer, Facility Electrical Technician, vendors, and site operations. Capture load-bank test results, deficiencies, corrective actions, acceptance evidence, and follow-up requirements. Coordinate fuel readiness, fuel quality checks, fuel vendor support, tank observations, leak concerns, and refueling readiness. Repair and maintain small engines, pumps, portable mechanical equipment, and similar support equipment within qualification limits. Support forklift maintenance coordination, inspections, basic troubleshooting, and vendor repair follow-up. Perform small welding, bracket, guard, stand, rack, or facility-fabrication projects when trained, authorized, and safe to do so. Identify required spares, consumables, tools, filters, fluids, batteries, belts, sensors, welding consumables, and test equipment. Coordinate generator vendor work and verify vendor work quality before closeout. Reduce dependency on unreliable vendor support by validating service quality and identifying recurring vendor gaps. Track open generator and mechanical deficiencies and escalate reliability risks to the Facility Engineer and Director of Technical Operations. Perform weekly data hall inspections and provide findings to the Director of Operations and Facility Engineer. Performs other related duties and special projects assigned to support evolving business priorities
