One Acre Fund relies on a home-grown Client Management Information System to help us manage our field program information. As we grow our organization, we need to continually improve this system and facilitate its integration with third party tools. Currently our Client Management Information System handles the enrollment of 180,000-300,000 smallholder farmers spread over multiple countries, records farm supply orders, manages the delivery of seed, fertilizer, and solar lights to clients, tracks millions of payment transactions, and creates a wide variety of business intelligence reports.
Given poor internet connectivity, our database uses a distributed client/server model where field offices can perform data entry and run reports offline while syncing with a central server as needed. On the backend the technologies used are SQL server 2014 with merge replication to field offices, while on the front end we use MVC.Net, Breeze.js and Angular.js. We use an Agile development strategy with frequent deployments of new versions to multiple locations.
The DevOps Engineer will be based in Western Kenya. S/he will be responsible for the following:
- Coordinate the rollout of new versions of the system to offices in multiple countries.
- Work with our local IT staff to support users when they are experiencing technical difficulties with the software
- Troubleshoot any issues with the system and relay information about possible bugs to the Quality Assurance team
- Develop automation tools for our operational environment
- Build out solutions to help our developers and Quality Assurance teams be more efficient
