Company Overview
NerdsToGo is a cool, fast-growing brand that provides computer solutions to residential consumers and small businesses. We service every type of technology from computers, phones, tablets and printers to networks, internet connections, security and much more!
Are you someone who enjoys clean cable runs, crisp terminations, and that satisfying click when everything just works? If structured cabling, low-voltage wiring, and a neatly labeled rack make your day, you might just be our next Nerd.
We're NerdsToGo, Plano, a fast-growing managed service provider and tech storefront with a serious commitment to helping small businesses stay connected, secure, and supported. We’re looking for a skilled Cabling Technician who takes pride in their work, whether running CAT6 in a crawlspace or cleaning up a server room that looks like spaghetti night.
What You'll Be Doing:
- Pulling, installing, and terminating low-voltage cabling (Cat5e, Cat6, coax, etc.) in commercial and residential environments
- Installing racks, patch panels, network jacks, faceplates, and testing equipment
- Diagnosing and resolving cabling issues or poor prior installations
- Reading blueprints and floor plans to design and execute clean, efficient cable routes
- Collaborating with team members, clients, contractors, and the occasional curious office cat
- Ensuring all jobs are completed with safety, accuracy, and that chef’s kiss finish
What We’re Looking For:
- 1+ year of structured cabling or low-voltage installation experience (more = even better)
- Ability to terminate and test Cat5e/Cat6 cables (RJ45), and familiarity with tools like cable testers, punch-down tools, and fish tapes
- Comfortable using ladders, lifts, and tools (and following OSHA safety practices)
- Must be able to lift 50 lbs, crawl, bend, climb, and sometimes work in less-than-glamorous spaces
- Valid driver’s license and clean driving record (you’ll be driving the Nerd Van!)
- Professional appearance, solid communication, and a "get-it-done" attitude
Nice-to-Haves (but not required):
- Experience with fiber optic installation or termination
- Familiarity with surveillance system cabling (CCTV, IP cameras)
- Basic networking knowledge or IT support background
What We Offer:
- Competitive pay based on experience
- Opportunities for growth into full IT technician roles
- A fun, no-BS culture that appreciates good work and good people
- Nerd gear (yes, the shirts are as cool as they sound)
Apply today and help us keep North Texas connected – one beautifully bundled cable at a time.
