Company: Digital Waffle
Apply for the IT Hardware Engineer
Location: Cheshunt
Job Description:

A specialist enterprise IT hardware provider is hiring an IT Hardware Technician to join their operations team. This is a fully hands-on role focused on building, testing and troubleshooting enterprise-grade hardware before it is shipped to customers.

This is not a support or helpdesk role. You will be physically working with servers, storage and networking equipment every day, ensuring systems are configured, tested and ready for deployment.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Configure, assemble and test enterprise server, storage and network hardware
  • Work directly with equipment from vendors such as Dell, HPE, Cisco and Fujitsu
  • Diagnose hardware faults and replace failed components
  • Carry out full hardware validation and testing prior to customer shipment
  • Document configurations, test results and system builds
  • Prepare systems for secure packaging and delivery
  • Support troubleshooting of hardware issues when required

What you’ll need:

  • Proven hands-on experience working with enterprise IT hardware
  • Experience installing, configuring and testing servers in a professional environment
  • Ability to diagnose and resolve hardware-level faults independently
  • Background in data centre, hardware refurbishment or system integration environments
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to follow structured processes
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, physical, hardware-focused environment

Nice to have:

  • Experience with network hardware such as switches and routers
  • Experience working with enterprise storage systems
  • Exposure to multiple vendors such as Dell, Cisco, HPE or Fujitsu

What’s on offer:

  • Full time onsite role in Cheshunt
  • Opportunity to work hands-on with enterprise-grade hardware daily
  • Stable environment with consistent workload and clear processes
  • Company pension and onsite parking

This role would suit someone who enjoys working directly with hardware, takes pride in precision and wants a role that is truly hands-on rather than desk-based.
