Manufacture, maintain, and develop server solutions for the Distributed Mission Operation Distributed Mission Training (DMODMT) Program. Support Combat Air Force Distributed Mission Operations (CAFDMO). Work in integration of new equipment into existing Distributed Mission Operations Network (DMON) and test for possible failures. "This position involves working with the United States Air Force on a day-to-day basis, assembling server equipment, and troubleshooting issues locally and at remote sites. Analyses are performed at all levels of total disposal. Ensures the logical and systematic conversion of customer or product requirements into total systems solutions that acknowledge technical, schedule, and cost constraints. Performed functional analysis, timeline analysis, detail trade studies, requirements allocation and interface definition studies to translate customer requirements into hardware and software specifications. When developing software and arranging kits, the engineer must understand the requirements particular to that project, define interfaces for ease of use and readability, and verify the solution has been developed correctly. The engineer must also understand that the solutions sent to the customer often are apart of a bigger suite of technology. With that in mind, certain standards (i.e. GUI) should be kept across all technologies being develop to ensure a small learning curve. Requirements for this job include a strong background in technology, networking, Operating System's capabilities, and hands on experience disassembling/assembling machines. Prior knowledge and experience dealing with High Level Architecture (HLA) is a plus."• Deployment of Custom Windows 7 Professional images to workstation computers• Process Return to Manufacture Authorizations request with the Shipping / Receiving Coordinator• Extensive use of Windows Server 2003 Gold Disk for vulnerability and available patches.• Helped develop a Windows Server 2008 "Gold Disk"
