About the Role

Meta is seeking a Connectivity Engineer focused on Data Center Commissioning and Auditing to ensure network and connectivity infrastructure is installed, tested, validated, and production‑ready prior to handoff to operations.

Participate in network readiness reviews and go‑live signoffs
Ensure all connectivity assets are fully documented, tested, and accepted prior to handoff to operations
Capture lessons learned and contribute to continuous improvement of commissioning and audit standards

3+ years of experience supporting data center connectivity during commissioning, QA/QC, or turnover phases
Strong hands‑on experience with fiber optic infrastructure, structured cabling, and low‑voltage systems
Proven ability to review and interpret test results, as‑builts, and commissioning documentation
Experience performing field audits, inspections, or technical acceptance reviews
Comfortable working on‑site in active construction environments and traveling between projects

Preferred Qualifications

Experience commissioning hyperscale or mission‑critical data centers
Strong familiarity with OTDR, power meter testing, and fiber acceptance criteria
