				Overview:

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.

Must live within a reasonable commuting distance to the local stadium in Miami, FL.

Must be available to work up to 20 hours per week whenever home games are played, including evenings, weekends and holidays.
