About the Opportunity

Welcome to ATvantage Sports Medicine, where we believe in keeping healthcare providers engaged, empowered, and balanced. Our team is composed of multidisciplinary professionals, including Certified Athletic Trainers (ATs) and EMTs, who want to practice high-level care on their own terms.

We are actively hiring Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) for the upcoming Fall/Winter high school sports season in Tempe, AZ. If you are looking for a seasonal role that prioritizes your autonomy and respects your time outside of work, look no further. This post offers consistent, predictable weekday afternoon and evening hours—making it an ideal fit for supplemental income, off-day shifts, or keeping your skills sharp without the burnout of traditional EMS shift work.
