Job description

Company description
 
Service Measure (SM) is a field data collection company founded in 2013 in New York. 
 
We collect data where automation is not possible. We count features, take pictures, make videos, record speech, and scan areas for every detail you need to make more informed decisions. Our field data collection teams are spread across Europe and North America, ready to accept new challenges.
 
Role Overview
We are seeking reliable and safety-focused professional drivers to support a large-scale mapping data collection project. Drivers will operate client-provided vehicles equipped with specialized mapping equipment to collect high-quality street-level data across assigned zones. This role requires strong driving skills, technical awareness, and the ability to work independently while coordinating closely with field coordinators.
 
Travel and extended assignments away from home (hotel-based work) are required.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Safely operate client-provided vehicles equipped with mapping and data collection equipment
  • Collect mapping data within assigned zones efficiently and in compliance with project guidelines
  • Handle and protect all client-provided vehicles, devices, and equipment
  • Maintain vehicle and equipment cleanliness and basic upkeep
  • Research and identify safe local parking locations to ensure vehicle and equipment security
  • Securely park, cover, and safeguard the vehicle daily at designated locations
  • Report and handle incidents, including traffic accidents and public interactions, in a professional manner
  • Coordinate daily activities, assignments, and issue resolution with the Camp Coordinator
  • Communicate technical, mechanical, or operational issues promptly
  • Meet daily and weekly delivery targets in collaboration with project coordinators
  • Travel long distances as required and work in “hotel mode” during assignments
  • Maintain accurate inventory and device logs in the designated system or application
Requirements:
  • Minimum 5 years of driving experience
  • At least 2 years of professional driving experience (e.g., taxi, delivery, logistics, courier)
  • Good English
  • Experience driving larger vehicles (vans, trucks) is strongly preferred
  • Defensive, calm, and safety-oriented driving style
  • Comfortable driving in high-traffic and stressful conditions (e.g., rush hour)
  • Familiarity with GPS devices and navigation tools
  • Good knowledge of local roads, neighborhoods, and traffic patterns in the working country
  • Polite, professional, and respectful demeanor when interacting with the public
  • Basic technical and mechanical knowledge (e.g., changing tires, reading vehicle gauges)
Additional Skills & Attributes:
  • High sense of responsibility and attention to detail
  • Ability to follow operational procedures and safety guidelines
  • Strong time management and reliability
  • Comfortable working independently in the field
  • Willingness to travel and stay on assignment for extended periods

We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
