## Description

Ragan Technical Solutions is a golf irrigation consulting firm that builds precise GPS maps of golf course irrigation systems. We're looking for a reliable, golf-savvy field technician to help us stake out courses and collect GPS data that our team turns into finished maps. This is hands-on outdoor work walking and driving golf courses, locating features and irrigation components, and tagging their exact positions with our GPS equipment. Work is primarily project-based and part-time, with steadier hours likely in the near term as we work through a backlog of course projects.

No irrigation or design background is needed - we'll train you on the equipment and process. What matters most is that you know your way around a golf course and are dependable in the field.

What You'll Do

 * Walk and drive golf courses to locate irrigation heads, valves, and course features
 * Physically stake out points according to provided stake books and course maps
 * Use our handheld GPS unit (ArcGIS Field Maps / ESRI Collector - training provided) to tag and record precise locations
 * Verify that collected data is accurate and complete before leaving a site
 * Work efficiently around active play and coordinate with course staff as needed
 * Keep GPS equipment charged, clean, and properly handled
 * Report progress and flag any issues to the office team
