About Modii

Modii’s mission is to create smart, equitable and sustainable mobility solutions by digitizing urban areas. We're a post-revenue, funded startup, leveraging real-world data to improve how people get around cities and campuses. Modii offers comprehensive solutions for end-users and administrators alike: our Parking Finder helps people make smart transportation and parking choices in cities and at universities, while our Admin Dashboard equips administrators with sophisticated tools to analyze, plan and manage parking operations effortlessly.

We’re proud of the culture we’ve built at Modii and truly believe that work should be a place where you come to grow, have fun, be challenged and build relationships. As a team, we value Innovation, Customer Satisfaction, Transparency, Collaboration and Excellence and sit remotely across the U.S. and Australia.

While contracted Parking Data Collectors collaborate primarily with our Project Manager and Customer Success team, we aim for you to enjoy your time with us and value your critical contributions toward the improvement of our data collection processes and buildout of our customer solutions.

About the Role

Modii is working with the City of Fort Worth, to digitize downtown Fort Worth's on-street parking assets. We’re looking for 2 contractors to collect the on-the-ground data required for our Customer Success, Product and Engineering teams to map Fort Worth's parking and street assets and develop tailored software solutions.

What you’ll do as a Parking Data Collector:

• Contribute ~20 hrs/week between late July and mid-August toward data collection.*
• Report to Modii’s Project Manager and collaborate with our Customer Success team.
• Receive training in our data collection software and process.
• Collect data points of key parking-related features, such as parking signs, payment kiosks etc.
• Communicate with the project team via Slack and during remote project/progress meetings over Zoom.

You will receive a “data collection kit” by mail with equipment necessary for collection. The kit will come with prepaid postage, and final payment will be contingent on the return of this equipment at the conclusion of the contract period.

*Data collection hours will be self-directed within a timeframe advised by the Project Manager, and weekly remote progress check-ins will be based on schedules and set during onboarding. The anticipated contracting window may fluctuate based on project needs and contractor schedules.

About you

No previous experience in data collection is required; you’ll be fully trained in our software and process. In order to perform this role effectively, we need contractors to have:

• The ability to navigate dense city streets comfortably and safely outside of a motor vehicle for an average of 2 miles at a time in seasonal weather conditions.
• Availability of ~20 hrs/week between late July and mid-August (these dates may fluctuate based on project needs and contractor schedules).

We also hope that applicants will:

• Thrive doing active, hands-on work
• Bring a high attention to detail
• Feel confident navigating a smart phone and picking up new technologies
