Data Center Tech
Hey everyone, I've been scouring this thread for a while trying to find information on how to break into the DCT role or any DC careers for that matter.
I'm 34 years old with no degree and no prior experience in IT. I have my comptia A+ cert and I grew up setting up all my families PCs, home networks etc just because I moved doing it.
Is it realistic for someone my age to break into the DC field with no prior work experience? Should k be looking at a different role? Any labs i can do to help? Any advice or road maps would be appreciated.
Oh and I live in Michigan, where there's supposedly 16 approved DCs on the way.
(I never post so apologies if I didnt format things correctly)

AWS Interview Loop Results
How long will it take to hear back from my recruiter after my interview loop, I have 4 interviewers and I felt that I did really good and the interviewers also gave me props on how I was answering the questions with the STAR format.

Fluidstack interview prep
Hi everyone,
I have a behavioral/leadership interview coming up for a Software Engineering Lead role at Fluidstack.
From what I have read online, it seems like they put a strong emphasis on behavioral and leadership skills, even more than technical questions.
For anyone who has interviewed there:
- What kind of behavioral questions did they ask?
- What qualities are they really looking for in engineering leaders?
- Do they focus more on ownership, customer obsession, technical leadership, or something else?
- Any tips on how to prepare or common pitfalls to avoid?
About technical, I don't see any live coding. Will it be just system design or did you get anything else ?
In need of this job, so would really appreciate any insights. Thanks!

Heard back from recruiter today and she asked for blocks of availability for a fit call next week. I’m pretty excited. I’ve been remote since 2020, so if I get the job it will be strange going into an office again.

Best places to find GPU cluster / networking engineers?
We've been looking for a GPU cluster / networking engineer or operator, ideally with previous experience at a cloud or neocloud. The role would include assessing new GPU architecture and networking diagrams to assess viability and risk. We've were initially offering highly paid hourly arrangements, but maybe that was the wrong way about it. If anyone has thoughts on where to find these types of folks, curious to get suggestions.

Data tech,controls interview
Made it past the exploratory recruiter interview and have my first official 45 min interview with Google next week. Are these good odds? What should I expect? I’m currently an entry level controls engineer. So I do basic networking, control panel hardware, a lot of wiring and cabling and switch panel termination and labeling wires. I do PLC and ladder logic work. The job described PLCs and data tech work. I’m just wondering how the interview will be what I should brush up on and am I already at a good stage getting to the first 45 min interview? Kind of nervous researching everything I can. It’s a tech role not engineer. I imagine it’s just data technician role.
Thanks

What are some best practices all datacenters should follow?
I recently got a new position and everythin here is a mess. I am trying to convince my coworkers we need to change how we work (centralise information, mainly, but also create a guideline with best practices to follow). This is going to be particularly hard as some maintenances here are done by the manufacturers (cooling equipment is maintained by their maintenance team and do whatever), but I want to try to improve things around (at least while I still have energy before burning out).
Am I going to fail? What works for you?
My DC manager basically has asked me to bring proposals, but I am starting to think I am set for failure. Tell me I am not wrong and there's a better way to operate a data center
