* The Opportunity:

** The DAF Cw Edge team is looking for a development and sustainment engineer that can help the team improve the ODIN at the Edge product in terms of functionality, automation, and efficiency. There is also a need for a Field engineer to assist in deploying to mission-partner sites and support pre-existing deployments. The team is geographically dispersed so online coordination and collaboration is required regardless of location.
** Responsibilities:
*** Installing and configuring virtual machines (VMs) or EC2 instances on the on-premises devices (such as AWS Outpost, Dell Tracewell, or Power Edge devices).
* Using Ansible and Terraform automation scripts to configure the deployed VMs. This includes setting up the necessary infrastructure and environment for the ODIN services.
* Deploying Platform1's Big Bang containers into a Kubernetes cluster. This can be done using either Helm or ArgoCD, depending on the specific requirements and preferences of the deployment.
* Installing additional hardware devices (AWS Outpost, Dell Tracewell, or Power Edge) at the operational site. This involves physically setting up the devices and ensuring they are properly connected and powered.
* Installing a scaled-down version of DAF Cw Managed Services, PaaS, and IaaS on the deployed hardware. This ensures that the on-premises devices have the necessary services to support operational missions.
* Configuring the environment to handle denied, disrupted, intermittent, and limited impact or low-bandwidth (DDIL) conditions, ensuring that the ODIN services remain operational under challenging network conditions.
* Continuously monitoring the deployment to ensure everything runs smoothly and performing maintenance tasks as needed to keep the system operational.
