Job description

Special Selection Applicants : Apply by 02/17/2023 Eligible Special Selection clients should contact their Disability Counselor for assistance.
This position will remain open until filled.
The ALERTWildfire university consortium (Nevada Seismological Laboratory (NSL) at UNR, UC San Diego and University of Oregon, UO), will deploy an additional integrated network of 21 HD PTZ fire cameras in Pacific Gas and Electric Company's operational territory. UCSD will employ a suite of five County Office of Emergency Services (OES) towers and eleven GeoLinks towers, which will expedite deployment and at a lower cost than building, from scratch, a 21- camera system with new towers and bandwidth access.
All 21 of the cameras will be installed and operating no later than 90 days after UCSD accepts the PO; the 21 locations will be mutually agreed upon by PG&E and UCSD. Even though ALERTWildfire is a proven system that has tracked 350+ fires in the last 2 years, ongoing research will be supported by this project to continue improving network fail-overs, topologies to improve network resilience during a fire event, and confederation of independent networks to provide a seamless environment to fire personnel and first responders. In addition, data center failover will also be addressed as part of this research to ensure that camera proxy and data acquisition functions do not stop if one data center becomes unusable due to networking issues or a power failure.
Ability to elicit and communicate technical and non-technical information in a clear and concise manner.
Self-motivated and works independently and as part of a team. Demonstrates problem-solving skills. Able to learn effectively and meet deadlines.

Proficient knowledge and experience with administering Unix, current versions of RedHat Enterprise Linux, Windows, Mac OS and Sun Solaris, Cisco network appliances, UPS installations, mass storage system, and CVS-managed repository.
Strong knowledge and experience with DNS, TCP/IP and network services such as NIS, NFS, Sendmail, Active Directory, Samba, FTP, and other network-oriented services/protocols.
Experience with Dell-based RAID management utilities (hardware- and software-based), HP hardware management utilities (database), SAN and NAS configuration, management tools for our backup server and UPS management.
Job offer is contingent upon satisfactory clearance based on background check results.
Candidate will need to have a flexible schedule as running the computer network will require rapid response time to rectify down systems.
