About this role

Remote Provisioning: Remotely configure edge nodes, activate Starlink connections, and calibrate cameras and SDRs immediately after physical installation.
Remote Troubleshooting: Act as the escalation point for edge node health. You will independently debug Linux systems, container crashes, and hardware-software integration issues from thousands of miles away.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Serve as the critical bridge between the field technicians bolting the gear to the ship, the backend engineers ingesting the data, and the AI team deploying edge models.

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
3–8+ years of experience in systems administration, field engineering, technical support engineering, or distributed systems operations.
Deep hands-on experience administering Linux systems, including systems, bash scripting, and debugging headless machines.
Strong networking fundamentals including TCP/IP, NAT/CGNAT, routing, VPNs, and network troubleshooting.
Experience deploying and operating containerized workloads using tools like Docker and lightweight orchestration platforms (e.g., K3s).
Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot hardware–software integration issues and operate systems in unreliable environments (intermittent power or connectivity).
Must be eligible to obtain/maintain a security clearance.
