Below the water table. In the short term I’d do a battery backup system and install a whole house automatic generator like the ones from Honeywell or generac. Then an alarm that’s connected to WiFi. That should cover you. In the long term I’d install a larger crock to cut down on short cycling. Submersible sump pumps only last about 2-3 years. Probably less if they run that often.

A Zoeller pump will last about 10 years with a 5 min cycle

many of my customers have them after switching from other brands
a battery backup pump does not last long at all, as of last week 45min cycling 7 min
