MotoAmerica And The Paddock Network Partner To Create New Home For Industry Opportunities And Careers

Motorsports Alumni Launch Site For Specialized Positions In Racing, Increasing Motorsports Career Access In North America

IRVINE, CA – May 8, 2026 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – MotoAmerica, North America’s premier motorcycle road racing series, is proud to announce a strategic partnership with The Paddock Network, the first global platform dedicated to simplifying and centralizing access to motorsports jobs.

This collaboration helps bridge the gap between passion and talent, elevating open roles within the motorsports paddock, from highly technical to entry level, including jobs within the MotoAmerica paddock and its teams that account for seven classes of racing across ten national rounds.

Historically, hiring in the racing industry has been primarily word-of-mouth, leaving talented candidates without a clear resource or path to entry. This partnership helps to broadcast job opportunities in a centralized place where organizations like race teams, and track organizers can interact directly with dedicated professionals searching for an opportunity at the highest levels of racing.

As The Paddock Network’s co-founder Dan Kruger (standing fifth from left) will tell you, the rider on track is just a fraction of the equation. Modern race teams don’t just require technical experts or corporate racing bosses, but have grown to require social media experts, hospitality professionals, and paddock support staff to set up and tear down.

Through The Paddock Network’s platform, the wide array of professional opportunities can live in a single place, connecting these teams and businesses to experienced powersports industry mechanics, technicians, and data engineers, as well as professionals from the hospitality, communications, or logistics industries.

“Motorsports has always been one of the hardest industries to enter because so many jobs exist behind closed doors where demands appear in an instant, and your contact list is the only resource immediately available,” says Taylor Mackenzie, Co-Founder of The Paddock Network. “As a group of racers with decades in the paddock, Danny [Webb], Dan [Kruger], and I created The Paddock Network to unify our industry specialists to create new career paths, and this partnership with MotoAmerica unifies this vision to take our resource globally.”

“In the past, getting a job in racing mostly depended on who you knew within a small circle,” said MotoAmerica COO Chuck Aksland. “Today, racing is highly technical and specialized, requiring a wide range of professionals. I think Taylor, Danny and Dan’s idea is a great one. We regularly hear from people looking for opportunities, and from teams searching for talent. We continue to build strong connections with universities around the country, and The Paddock Network creates a pathway for students to get involved — expanding beyond traditional hiring circles to find the right people for these unique roles in racing.”

For those looking to develop a career in motorsports, The Paddock Network also offers a “Continuing Education” section, which integrates technical colleges, universities, and specialty services to help candidates set their path to working in motorsports.

The Paddock Network’s North American expansion officially went live on April 1, 2026, offering candidates the ability to create free profiles and allowing hiring managers to consider applicants through a streamlined dashboard.
