What are the responsibilities and job description for the Information Technology Technician position at The Boring Company?
The Boring Company was founded to solve the problem of soul-destroying traffic by creating an underground network of tunnels. Today, we are creating the technology to increase tunneling speed and decrease costs by a factor of 10 or more with the ultimate goal of making Hyperloop adoption viable and enabling rapid transit across densely populated regions.
The Boring Company (TBC) technicians work in a demanding and dynamic environment, supporting a wide range of critical construction, tunneling, and infrastructure deployment activities.
The IT Network Infrastructure Team is responsible for installing, maintaining, and troubleshooting the low-voltage and fiber infrastructure that powers TBC’s tunneling operations in Las Vegas. This role is highly physical and field-oriented, supporting everything from new construction builds to ongoing tunnel operations and system maintenance.
Technicians will regularly support the deployment of TBC’s "data path" including multi-mile fiber pulls, conduit and ducting installation, and "last mile" infrastructure work.
Technicians will also work hands-on with Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) systems during commissioning, repair, and maintenance, such as fixing data cabling, diagnosing camera systems, and resolving onboard communication issues.
There is also an ongoing need for site infrastructure maintenance across office spaces and completed projects, including the Las Vegas Convention Center Loop. This includes adding new network lines, expanding WiFi coverage, installing and repairing surveillance systems, and field troubleshooting deployed IoT and networking equipment. Regular maintenance tasks include replacing damaged fiber/ethernet lines, swapping dead hardware, and ensuring all field devices remain operational.
