If "let me take a look at that" is your favorite sentence, keep reading. Some people talk about how things work. We're looking for someone who makes them work.
About Us
Our Rockdale facility is a hands-on environment where technicians keep cutting-edge machines running around the clock. It's active, it's team-driven, and it rewards people who like solving real problems with real tools — not sitting behind a desk.
We're part of a global operation spanning Bitcoin mining and cloud services, and we're on the hunt for sharp, hands-on technicians who like working with their hands and staying on the move. If you'd rather be walking the floor with a toolkit than stuck in an office, you'll feel right at home here. Curious about the tech you'd be working with? Take a look at www.bitdeergroup.com.
About the Role
As a Computer Maintenance Technician, you'll perform highly diversified duties — installing, troubleshooting, repairing, and maintaining production and facility equipment — following safety, predictive, and productive maintenance processes that support the site's goals. This is a physical, hands-on role: you'll be on your feet, walking the floor, and working directly on the machines, not sitting behind a desk.

- Schedule: Sunday–Wednesday or Wednesday–Saturday
- Day Shift: 6:00 AM – 6:00 PM
- Night Shift: 6:00 PM – 6:00 AM (+$2/hour shift differential)

Preferred (not required):
- Technical degree in a computer-related, electronic, or electrical field
- 1–2 years of relevant work experience
