Data Center Redlining Technician (Cabling & Documentation) - The Archetype Strategy

Position Summary

We are seeking a Data Center Redlining Technician to support cabling infrastructure projects by accurately documenting field changes and updating drawing markups (“redlines”). This role bridges the gap between installation teams and engineering, ensuring all cabling, rack, and pathway changes are captured and ready for as-built documentation.

The ideal candidate has strong experience in structured cabling, fiber tracing, and rack/patch panel environments, along with the ability to interpret and update technical drawings.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform redlining of data center drawings including:
  • Rack elevations
  • Floor layouts
  • Cable pathways (ladder rack, tray, conduit)
• Trace and document A-to-B cable connectivity (fiber and copper)
• Update:
  • Patch panel port assignments
  • Switch connections
  • Rack/unit (U) positions
• Identify and correct:
  • Labeling discrepancies
  • Missing or undocumented cabling
• Mark adds, moves, and changes (MAC work) clearly on drawings
• Work closely with:
  • Field technicians
  • Project managers
  • Engineering/CAD teams
• Capture field data using:
  • Markup tools (e.g., Bluebeam Revu)
  • Spreadsheets and cable schedules
• Provide clean, organized redlines for as-built conversion
