@ArielGlenn I've created the CR to add the jobs to production, however there may be a need for a proper backfill since the job seems to only start at DAY-1? If it's the case, would you be open to running that backfill using mw-script-k8s to see if it works well under a kubernetes environment?

I can test it if you like, though I don't expect any issues. While further backfill might be useful, it's by no means required, since the data it relies on is only available for the last 3 months iirc.

Jobs are now deployed on the maintenance server as systemd timers. Migration to k8s will be tracked in parent.
