About the Role
We are seeking a dedicated and motivated Data Capture Technician to operate reality capture equipment, such as 360-degree cameras and other surveying tools, in a variety of environments. The technician will be responsible for capturing comprehensive data of construction sites using different equipment and methodologies that align with algorithmic analysis.
We are looking for someone who is hardworking, responsible, and passionate about fieldwork, with the ability to effectively use technology to collect detailed site information. This is a part-time role, requiring one day of work per week.
What You'll Do
- Operate 360° cameras and other surveying equipment to efficiently capture the construction site.
- Document and communicate the progress of the work being done on-site.
- Ensure personal safety and the safety of the site and equipment by strictly following all safety protocols and guidelines.
- Collaborate with the Project Team to adapt to the needs and requirements of each project.
- Work on a large-scale construction sites in Texas as part of the role.
The Logistics:
What the commitment actually looks like
Location: Quinlan, TX (with potential for nearby sites as projects expands)
Schedule: One day a week, full day, 8:00 AM – 6:00 PM
Hours: 5–8 hours per capture day
Contract type: Fixed-term contract, minimum 18 months, tied to project duration
Transport: You must have a valid driving license and reliable personal transport to reach site
This is real, reliable work with a consistent schedule and a minimum 18-month commitment from us. Additional hours are regularly available as projects grow. This is the right fit if you want steady, structured fieldwork without a full 40-hour commitment, not if you're looking for flexible or on-call hours.
No flexible scheduling
The Capture days are set by the construction project. We cannot accommodate requests to swap days, work evenings, or adjust hours around other commitments. The schedule is fixed and additional hours are available as the project grows.
Responsibilities:
Your day-to-day on site
• Operate 360° cameras to systematically document construction sites
• Follow a strict technical capture brief, coverage, angles, and sequencing are prescribed, not improvised
• Walk the full site each capture day, often covering 20,000+ steps across uneven terrain
• Wear and maintain full PPE at all times: hard hat, steel-toed boots, and high-vis vest
• Communicate daily progress and flag any site access or safety issues to the Project Team
• Adapt quickly to site-specific safety protocols and client requirements
• Handle and care for equipment responsibly
Requirements
What you need to bring to this role:
Must Have
- Availability for one full weekday (8 to 10 hours) each week
- Valid driving licence and reliable personal transport to reach Quinlan-area sites
- Physical fitness to walk 8–10 hours per day, outdoors, in varying weather
- OSHA 10 certification, or genuine commitment to completing it before your start date (we cover the costs)
- Strong reliability track record — you show up when you say you will
- Safety-first mindset — you actively identify hazards, follow protocols, and don't cut corners
- Clear, proactive communication — you flag problems early rather than letting them compound
Nice To Have - Prior experience on active construction, civil engineering, or surveying sites
- Familiarity with 360° cameras, scanning equipment, or similar technical field tools
- Experience following precise technical methodologies or documentation standards
Safety & Certifications
OSHA 10 is required — we make it straightforward
All technicians must hold a valid OSHA 10 certification before their first day on site. This is non-negotiable — active construction sites require it.
- Already certified? You can start immediately.
- Not yet certified? Complete OSHA 10 training after your offer is accepted and before your start date. We reimburse the full cost on Day 1.
- Steel-toed safety boots are mandatory on site. If you don't own a pair, we reimburse the cost.
