If youd rather spend your workday moving than sitting behind a desk, this may be your kind of job! Quality Counts (QC), the leader in traffic data collection, is hiring a part-time Traffic Field Technician to support projects throughout the greater Baton Rouge area.

  • Has relevant labor, field, construction, installation, maintenance, delivery, landscaping, warehouse, transportation, or other hands-on work experience.

  • Comfortable with a variable part-time schedule: approximately 10-15 hours per week during slower seasons and 30+ hours, including overtime opportunities, during peak seasons.

  • Reliable commute to Baton Rouge, LA required. This position starts daily from our office/warehouse before heading to field assignments.
  • Dependable and comfortable working independently without constant supervision.
  • Takes initiative and can troubleshoot when plans change in the field.
  • Pays attention to the details and takes pride in completing work correctly.
  • Can lift up to 50 lbs., climb ladders (~15 feet), and safely operate power tools.
  • Comfortable using a computer for data downloading tasks.

Field Operations Technician-Transportation - Benefits:

  • 40 hours of annual Volunteer Time Off (VTO)

  • Hands-on, paid training
  • Company vehicle provided for travel to and from work sites
  • 401(k) with Employer Contribution (effective one year after employment)
  • Opportunities for local and nationwide travel
  • A job that keeps you moving, gets you outside, and gives you visible results at the end of the day
  • See the impact of your work firsthand as the data you collect helps engineers and planners make decisions about local roads and infrastructure
