## Description (the employer's text)

### Kart Mechanic – FAT Karting League (Texas / Travel Role)

We believe the world’s fastest driver hasn’t raced… yet.

At FAT Karting League, our mission is to open up motorsport to the next generation by breaking down barriers to entry. We’re building a competitive, high-quality karting platform for drivers aged 6–17, and we’re looking for mechanics who want to be part of that journey.

### Why join us?

This isn’t a back-of-the-garage role. You’ll be working at the heart of a growing race program—preparing karts, supporting live race events, and helping deliver competitive performance on track.

If you’re looking to build a long-term career in motorsport, this is an opportunity to get hands-on experience across all aspects of race operations—not just a narrow role in a large team.

Work both in the workshop and trackside at race events

Gain exposure to race prep, operations, and performance environments

Take on real responsibility from day one

Grow with the team as we expand our program

### The role

Maintain and prepare a fleet of electric race karts

Diagnose and repair mechanical issues under race conditions

Support kart operations at live events across Texas (and sometimes further afield)

Assist with event logistics and equipment setup

Ensure karts are race-ready to a high standard at all times

### Location & travel

Workshop-based during the week

Regular travel to race events across Texas on weekends

Opportunity for out of state travel during periods not racing in Texas

### Benefits

Medical coverage (Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield) after 90 days

Access to telehealth and mental health support (EAP)

Wellness incentives

Opportunity to grow with a scaling motorsport program

### Requirements

### What we’re looking for

At least 1 year of mechanical experience (karts, cars, motorbikes, or similar)

Ability to work in fast-paced, high-pressure environments

Strong work ethic and attention to detail

A genuine passion for motorsport

Don’t tick every box?

If you’ve got solid mechanical skills and the drive to build a career in motorsport, we still want to hear from you.

FAT Karting League is committed to attracting, recruiting, and retaining the most talented individuals, regardless of age, disability, gender identity, gender expression, gender reassignment, marital or civil partnership status, pregnancy or maternity, race, religion, belief, sex or sexual orientation. We strive to be a team that supports diversity in the workplace and promoting an inclusive culture in which all team members are respected, empowered and valued.
