Position: TruMedia Networks Client Support And Content Coordinator

Location: Boston (remote possible)

Description:
TruMedia is seeking a uniquely skilled talent to lead and contribute in multiple areas of our business as our Client Support and Content Coordinator.

One of the primary responsibilities of the role will be managing the content that TruMedia produces. This will include creating public-facing content for our web site, blog and social media accounts, as well producing highly targeted internal content for our current and prospective clients. Currently TruMedia focuses on football, baseball, soccer and cricket – so deep knowledge of any or all of these sports is ideal.

Beyond content, this role will also call for day-to-day interaction with our 50+ clients across professional sports teams and media in an account management setting – with a particular focus on our MLB clients. This person will be our front line support for teams when they have any questions related to our services.

Another responsibility will be as our functional QA lead across all of our products. This means you will provide constant feedback to our engineering team on features and functionality that will improve our offerings. It also means you will need to understand how teams can use our products to improve their processes and decision making.

And finally, we are looking for someone who understands the sports analytics landscape across multiple sports. You won’t necessarily need to build machine learning algorithms and code in JavaScript (though if you can, that doesn’t hurt!), but you do need to have an understanding of how to use data to both tell better stories in the media world, and help teams win more games.

Position: St. Louis Cardinals Baseball Operations Fellowship

Location: Jupiter, Fla.

Description:
The St. Louis Cardinals baseball club is seeking candidates for a Baseball Operations Fellowship position to be based out of the Jupiter, FL complex. The Fellowship position runs from early 2018 through December 31, 2018. It is a full-time position eligible for insurance consistent with a typical Cardinals full-time employee. Fellows will be compensated based on an hourly rate of pay competitive with similar entry level positions in baseball. This Fellowship position will be a one-year opportunity – Fellows will not return in the same position in 2019. At the end of the Fellowship, the Cardinals and Fellow will jointly determine if there is an appropriate opportunity for full-time employment within the Cardinals.

The Fellowship position is designed to provide entry-level baseball executives with an opportunity to gain experience mainly in the International and Player Development departments at the home of the Cardinals’ Spring Training, Extended Spring Training, Gulf Coast, Florida State, and Instructional Leagues. While working at the direction of the Jupiter-based Directors of the International/Player Development departments, the Fellow will also provide occasional support to the St. Louis front office.

Responsibilities will be driven mostly by baseball activity taking place at the Jupiter complex and will be closely tied to interaction with Minor League players, many of which are international and require assistance in a foreign country. Native-level Spanish fluency is ideal with a high degree of proficiency as the minimum requirement. Duties will include, among others, serving as interpreter, translating documents, assisting on-field personnel with daily planning, supporting recently drafted players upon signing, organization of player immigration documents, and basic analysis of international scouting reports. Training will be provided for any scouting responsibilities associated with the role.

This is an exciting opportunity for entry-level individuals passionate about baseball and willing to start in a highly dynamic environment. The ideal candidate will have demonstrated a strong work ethic, deep enthusiasm for international baseball, and high intellect to quickly adapt and implement on the go. The Fellowship will provide such a candidate with a broad range of experiences across Baseball Operations and the possibility of full-time employment.

Position: Quantitative Analyst – Sports Science and Sabermetrics, R&D Group

Location: Seattle

Description:
Driveline Baseball is looking for a highly-skilled quantitative analyst to join our growing Research and Development team in Seattle. Driveline Baseball secures contracts with multiple MLB teams year-round, providing external amateur draft reports, player development assistance, and on-site implementation of our physical products we manufacture and develop in-house. Driveline Baseball also trains hundreds of elite collegiate and professional hitters and pitchers in their three warehouse complexes in Kent, Wash. (20 minutes south of downtown Seattle).

The ideal candidate will have interest in both sports science and sabermetrics, with a desire to broaden their horizons into other fields we are pursuing, such as logistics, manufacturing, and rapid prototyping. Candidates will not be judged based on their formal education background, or lack thereof; the best candidates to come through Driveline Baseball have a varied and colorful history with a portfolio of failed, half-completed, and blocked sports projects of all types. Self-starters, initiative-takers, and those with a healthy skepticism of authority fit in well in the R&D department of Driveline Baseball.

Unlike MLB organizations, at Driveline Baseball the members of the R&D team work directly and regularly with minor and major league players. You will be communicating directly with big leaguers who will depend on your statistical and quantitative reports to improve their training methods and their pitch selection. You will also deal directly with front office executives and will be expected to take a managerial role in directing quantitative interns and organizing third-party vendors within months of joining our team.

This isn’t your average quantitative analyst position where you’d be siloed in the front office and seen but not heard – you’ll be on the lines of battle and you’ll be crushing R code at a standing desk. Read the rest of this entry »
