Job Description
About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Data Center Technician for freelance/contract work in Sathorn, Bangkok, Thailand. This is an onsite, dispatch-based opportunity supporting mission-critical data center infrastructure for Reboot Monkey clients.
Technicians will be considered for assignments in or near Bangkok, depending on client requirements and proximity to the data center.
Contract & Work Arrangement
Freelance/contract, hourly, on-demand engagement
Assignments and schedules depend on client demand.
Technicians are paid for the actual hours worked on each assignment.

Some dispatches may last only a few hours, while others may require longer onsite support.
Assignments may take place during regular hours, nights, weekends, or on short notice, depending on client requirements.
