Position Overview
We are hiring a QA/QC Technician to oversee the quality control of cable labeling and organization within our data center environments. This role is critical to ensuring that all fiber (including MPO-8 breakouts) and Cat6 copper cabling is labeled, bundled, and staged according to strict standards. The ideal candidate must have a strong eye for detail, technical knowledge of fiber and copper infrastructure, and the ability to communicate clearly with technicians, leads, and project managers.
Responsibilities
- Inspect fiber and Cat6 cables to ensure correct labeling format, placement, and durability.

- Confirm copper cabling (Cat6) terminations are labeled and installed per floor plans and port maps.
- Ensure that cables are bundled neatly, consistently, and in compliance with bend-radius and pathway guidelines.
- Check routing paths for proper separation of fiber and copper, use of Velcro (no over-tightening), and logical grouping by destination or rack.
- Complete QA/QC checklists, noting all discrepancies and corrective actions required.
- Take clear photos of non-compliant work and provide before/after records when issues are corrected.
- Maintain logs of inspected zones, bundle groups, and cable types for handoff to project stakeholders.
- Work directly with cabling technicians and leads to provide immediate feedback on issues.
- Escalate repeated errors, labeling inconsistencies, or deviations from project documentation.
- Participate in team huddles or walk-throughs to explain QC expectations and results.
Requirements:
- 1+ years experience in a structured cabling, low-voltage QA/QC, or data center infrastructure environment.
- Strong knowledge of fiber cabling (especially MPO breakout types) and Cat6 standards.
- Familiarity with ANSI/TIA-568 labeling practices and project-specific labeling conventions.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills – must be able to clearly document issues and collaborate with field teams.
- High attention to detail and a commitment to documentation accuracy.
- Able to read and interpret rack elevations, patch schedules, and cable matrices.
Preferred Qualifications:
- BICSI certification or formal low-voltage QA/QC training.
- Experience in hyperscale or enterprise-level data center deployments.
- Proficiency with mobile documentation tools (Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel, PlanGrid, etc.).
- OSHA 10/30 certification a plus.
