The Fire Protection Technician at SpaceXAI is responsible for inspecting, testing, maintaining, and supporting the installation and commissioning of fire suppression and life safety systems at data center facilities. The role requires hands‑on experience with NFPA standards, NICET certification, and industrial suppression equipment, as well as strong communication, documentation, and site safety skills.

Requirements

Skills

  • High school diploma or equivalency certificate
  • 2+ years installing, inspecting, testing, and/or servicing fire protection systems (sprinkler, fire alarm, and/or special suppression)
  • Working knowledge of NFPA standards and basic building/fire code requirements for systems you work on (e.g., NFPA 13, 25, 72)
  • NICET certification in Inspection and Testing, Water-Based Systems, Fire Alarm, or Special Hazards
  • Hands‑on experience with ESFR, fire pumps, preaction, clean agent, or other industrial/warehouse/data‑center suppression
  • OEM or vendor experience (Simplex, Siemens, Notifier, Viking, Reliable, or similar)
  • Construction or commissioning experience on active job sites
  • OSHA 10/30 or equivalent site‑safety training
  • Willingness to work extended hours as needed, including the current 6‑day / 12‑hour construction cadence
  • Willingness to travel to site for the shift

Responsibilities

  • Inspect, test, and maintain fire and life safety systems (sprinklers, suppression, alarms, detection, extinguishers) and close out deficiencies
  • Support installation, upgrades, and commissioning of fire protection systems: walkdowns, device checkout, punch lists, functional tests, and turnover
  • Verify that installed systems stay in working order and that impairments are logged, mitigated, and restored
  • Work with facilities teams, fire contractors, and the authority having jurisdiction (fire marshal) on inspections, permits, impairments, and certifications
  • Read drawings, submittals, and test reports well enough to follow a job in the field and flag what does not match
  • Keep inspection, test, and corrective‑action records so audits and AHJ visits have a clean paper trail
  • Respond to impairments, leaks, trouble signals, and after‑hours issues as the site requires
