13 Honest Data Center Technician Salaries in 2018

data center technician salary

Salary averages can be misleading. One culprit? Geography. A salary in San Francisco doesn’t compare dollar-for-dollar to a salary in Charlotte. Another culprit? Math. Quite simply, outliers (i.e., expensive cities) skew the data. That seems obvious, right?
It’s easier to report a national average without context, but it’s better to look at regions than national averages to determine honest salary averages. That’s why we took a look at the salaries of data center technicians, by city (like we did for Information Security Analysts and Ethical Hackers).
Utilizing Glassdoor, LinkedIn, and local postings, we looked at salaries in 13 cities to get an accurate sense of the data. More importantly, we focused on cities that house large data centers.
It’s well known that more than 70 percent of the world’s internet traffic passes through Loudoun County in Northern Virginia. But, every one of these cities wooed companies to bring their data centers (and jobs) to their region with the two things every data center needs — cheap power and lots of land.

How much does a data center technician actually make?

  1. We focused on job postings explicitly for data center technicians. To keep the numbers accurate, we did not include analysts, senior technicians, or managers.
  2. The national average salary for a data center technician is $58,538.
  3. The average high: $78,077
  4. The average low: $39,000
  5. Here are the data center technician salaries from 13 U.S. cities:
