If you’re interested in careers in racing, NASCAR is one of the top employers in the U.S. There are many different roles you can take on, both technical and nontechnical, with NASCAR and other sanctioning bodies.
Currently, NASCAR has a job opening for a part-time official for their National Touring Series. The job description is below.
From NASCAR: “We are seeking qualified candidates for Part Time Official openings with our National Touring Series (Northern Modifieds, K&N Pro Series East and West). These positions are responsible for learning, understanding and enforcing the NASCAR Rulebook in a consistent, timely, and professional manner as it applies to inspection and race procedures. Will maintain proper communication with assigned crew chiefs and/or Race Control. Must have good written and oral communication skills, and experience/education in the field of mechanics.”
This would be a great part-time position for anyone who wishes to exercise their mechanical engineering or motorsports engineering degree in an applied racing environment.
