Teconergy is a globally oriented IT service provider specialising in data center operations and maintenance. We deliver on-site hardware support for enterprise and AI server environments across Europe, working to strict service level agreements (SLAs) for international technology clients.

As a Resident Server Engineer, you are based permanently at one of our clients data centers, in a team that covers the site 24/7. You keep the server fleet running: you patrol the halls, spot problems before they cause outages, fix hardware faults on the spot and follow every incident through to resolution.

What youll do

• Carry out inspection rounds at least every 4 hours and record findings in a patrol report

• Monitor equipment status and alarms, and resolve risks before they cause downtime

• Troubleshoot server faults using BMC logs, diagnostic tools and Linux commands, and replace failed parts (memory, CPUs, disks, power supplies, boards, GPUs)

• Handle repair tickets on site following the clients procedures, with accurate time stamps and repair descriptions

• Own incidents during your shift: coordinate with the data center operator and technical support, and escalate when needed

• Use batch tools for firmware updates and server configuration across many machines

• Manage the on-site spare parts stock and keep inventory records accurate

• Write a shift handover and duty report, and follow all data center safety and ESD rules

• Manage on-site asset inventory tracking, stock movements, and defective component returns (RMA)

• Perform physical hardware replacement and cabling checks on server infrastructure, including GPU servers, optical transceivers, and high-density cabling.

What you bring

• Education in IT, electronics or similar, or equivalent training and certification

• Junior: relevant training with some hands-on hardware experience. Medium: 1–3 years in data center operations or server support

• Good knowledge of rack server hardware; medium level also blade, multi-node or GPU servers

• Proficiency with basic physical and electronic hand tools (e.g., torque screwdrivers, ESD safety gear, label printers, cable testers).

• Familiarity with remote management tools (BMC/IPMI) and hardware logs

• Basic Linux commands, networking basics and an understanding of RAID

• Disciplined, process-driven way of working and clear communication

• Willingness to work a 24/7 shift rotation, including nights, weekends and public holidays

• Able to pass a background check and commute reliably to the site at any hour

• Willingness and ability to successfully complete the vendor/supplier interview, qualification training, and technical assessment

Nice to have: experience in large-scale or AI data centers, batch deployment tools, storage systems, or certifications such as CompTIA A+ / Server+.

Languages: fluent English required; Finnish and Mandarin Chinese is a strong advantage.

We offer

• Full training and manufacturer certification on enterprise server products

• A permanent base at a modern, large-scale data center with current AI infrastructure

• Competitive salary plus shift allowances

• An international, multilingual team (English and Mandarin) and a clear path to senior or team-lead roles
