About Billfold
Billfold was founded in 2016 by food and beverage operators who were pressed to create their own “Cashless” solution that fully addressed their needs around payment speeds. Whether it’s a 500 or 500K person event, Billfold is the only RFID cashless point of sale solutions company for live events and festivals that’s built to support operators at scale. Billfold thrives on providing win-win scenarios, always looking after the client’s ROI as we implement solutions that truly drive revenue and experience objectives.
About the role
Billfold is looking for a part-time Network Technician to serve as an expert in WiFi connectivity for our clients. Our Network Technician partner travels to events and festivals (in NYC and globally) to set up our newly launched WiFi offering, Billfold Connect. Network Technicians report to the Operations Manager and partner with RFID Specialists on event deployments. The role is an events-based job and therefore we cannot offer a set schedule.

- Assess the WiFi connectivity needs for projects and develop “Billfold Connect” proposals in partnership with sales
- Install temporary cellular WiFi solutions at local and global events and festivals
- Troubleshoot WiFi issues at events and coordinate with the deployment team to ensure appropriate resolution of all problems
- Maintain knowledge of all products and services in the market
- Assist the warehouse manager with Billfold Connect inventory management, hardware assembly, shipping, and receiving equipment.
About you
You enjoy events and are looking to pick up additional work. You understand that live events are subject to change (e.g., call times, locations, and equipment needs) and are highly adaptable.
