About DataVita

DataVita is a next-generation cloud and infrastructure company operating from Tier III-certified data centres in Scotland. We work at the bleeding edge of AI adoption, automation, and how these technologies can be integrated into complex legacy environments to deliver genuine transformation.

DataVita is the fastest growing technology company in Scotland, with plans to deploy and invest over £2 billion in the coming years. You would be joining at a relatively early stage of that trajectory. For the right person, this is a chance to build something from the ground up inside a business that is scaling fast.

About the Role

This is a fantastic opportunity to start your career as a Data Centre Engineer, working alongside experienced engineers to learn how to maintain the M&E infrastructure that keeps our facility running at 100% uptime - from critical power and cooling systems to small-power, lighting, and general facilities.

Alongside your studies, you'll get hands‑on, practical experience with data cabling, testing, and fault‑finding, as well as customer onboarding and project work. You’ll be building the real skills you need to grow into a fully qualified engineer.

This is a full‑time apprenticeship, working 37 hours per week, Monday to Friday, with the expectation to join the on‑call rota once you're fully qualified.
