You work alongside a dedicated crew, benefit from structured shifts, and gain valuable experience in high-volume fiber installations that can advance your career in data center and network infrastructure.
**Work Environment**
You work primarily in new construction and refurbishment data center sites, often in an air-cooled atmosphere that can be cold in the winter and dusty due to ongoing construction.

Much of the day involves sitting in one area and performing splicing work, with extensive focus on precision fiber tasks.

You live in hotels or camp-style accommodations with the crew, and travel to and from sites occurs via carpooling or buses.

The project operates with three different shift patterns and associated living arrangements: a 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. shift based in PG with bus commuting to Mackenzie (commuting time covered), a 3:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. shift based in Mackenzie, and an 11:00 p.m. to 9:00 a.m. shift also based in Mackenzie.
