Data center jobs, ranked by take-home

Ranked by what you take home each week.

Every job shows hourly, overtime and per diem added into one weekly number, so a $45 job with $150 a day beats a $55 job with none. Every trade on a data center build: electricians, operators, pipe layers, welders, crane operators, ironworkers, HVAC and commissioning.

Weekly figures are estimates: straight time to 40 hours, time-and-a-half after, plus per diem for the days stated in the posting (6 days where the posting doesn't say). Per diem usually requires working 50+ miles from your tax home. Sample listings come from public postings, September–November 2026; a few link to the job board where the posting lives rather than the posting itself. Confirm details with the employer before you apply.
