NOIRLab's Systems Engineering Department is seeking a Software Development Engineer I to integrate and optimize backend technologies, develop software infrastructure and data analysis for predictive maintenance, and train observatory staff at the summit site to use the CMMS, starting at the Vera C. Rubin Observatory.
The CMMS requires information to be stored to efficiently trigger preventive maintenance activities. The data must be ingested automatically. The Rubin Observatory's main source of these data is the EFD. The data stored in the EFD can be accessed directly via the Rubin Science Platform. To perform predictive maintenance, the EFD data must be automatically analyzed, and defined limits must be applied.
Your expertise in Python will be critical as you develop the connection observatory database systems with the Computerised Maintenance Management System OpenMAINT from PAT. 
The appointment is for one year, with the expectation of being made permanent.
