As a member of Zebra's Game Day Operations Team, the successful candidate will

provide onsite technical support for Zebra's player tracking system! The system uses wireless location technology to track the movement of athletes during pre-season, regular season, and post-season football games. Each Specialist will be assigned to a home stadium for the playing season where they will work within a team to support activities related to the player tracking system to ensure successful game day operations.

We are looking for a local candidate who is within commuting distance to the stadium.

For each professional football game played at the Specialist's designated stadium, the candidate will be responsible for performing several activities that help ensure smooth operation of the player tracking system.

sporting event, the Specialist may be asked to travel to stadiums other than their home stadium if a Specialist from another stadium is unable to work. Must possess outstanding system troubleshooting and interpersonal skills and maintain a degree of professionalism representative of Zebra Technologies in all environments. The successful candidate will interact with Zebra hardware, software, and support teams, as well as personnel from other organizations that coordinate game day operations.
